Just curious what you guys think of this as I have some people I will be sending a snail mail Christmas letter to that I do not have an email address for. Would it be tacky to put my FusionCash referral link in my Christmas letter??

My two cents is that it depends on the relationship you have with the receiver of the letter.

Very tacky.  I wouldn't do it.  Maybe make an excuse to see or talk to them and bring it up in the course of conversation.

I would say no its not. Only because my family always needs ways to make money. There are very few of them that are well enough off to consider it tacky. I would think if you are doing well at something this simple that your family should be the first people that you share this with.

I think there's a time and place for eveything, but I dont' think it's a good idea to put the link in a Christmas letter. It's all about good joy and being happy about these people not money, presents or whatever commercial aspects have become to define Christmas.

This will depend on who you will send it to..some people might take it as a great way to make some extra buks. Others might take it in a negative way..choose wisely :)

Thanks for the great idea!  :heart:

As long as you weave it into a story, isn't that what a Christmas letter is about? It might help if you invest in a domain name and redirect it, so it doesn't look like a big long referral link. I use one all year anyway.

If you don't know what I mean, search YouTube for 'GoDaddy SubDomain'

I honestly wouldn't put it in a Christmas letter but maybe in a few more weeks you could send out something for New Years with something like "Looking to make some extra money this year...look no further."  And then add your referral link.  Personally, I would leave it out of the Christmas letter, but to each their own.

Well I guess it depends on how you deliver it. A Christmas letter generally tells what you've been up to over the year and if you tell them and give your link for them to check out if they are interested then I think it would be okay. Not much different than telling them you have a new house come look at it sometime ... but it could depend on who it is too... is it your brother. friends or Grandma? The older generations generally expect certain ettique whereas friends probably are tickled to hear from you.
