Touchnote Offers Personal Touch to Digital Postcards
Touchnote is the one of the UK's fastest growing apps and has grown exponentially in three years. The postcard-sending company has expanded to America, with CEO and President Oded Ran launching Touchnote USA in Los Angeles.
It's been dubbed the world’s most popular postcard-sending service and provides customers a digital solution to sending something customized and thoughtful. Other products include greeting cards, holiday cards, photo books, and canvasses - all made and ordered via the Touchnote app. Ran says it's simple to use and can all be done with the touch of your finger, right on your phone. After creating an account, you simply upload your digital photo, write a personalized note, and choose the address of the person you want to send. Touchnote turns it into a personalized print, takes care of postage and sends it off.
Ran also touches on how he grew his business so quickly - making $6 million in sales last year and growing revenues 295% over the past three years. He says it's all about finding something people want and creating a solution that makes it easier for them to do something they would already be doing.

American businesses that rely on Chinese goods are reacting with muted relief after the U.S. and China agreed to pause their exorbitant tariffs on each other’s products for 90 days. Many companies delayed or canceled orders after President Donald Trump last month put a 145% tariff on items made in China. Importers still face relatively high tariffs, however, as well as uncertainty over what will happen in the coming weeks and months. The temporary truce was announced as retailers and their suppliers are looking to finalize their plans and orders for the holiday shopping season. They’re concerned a mad scramble to get goods onto ships will lead to bottlenecks and increased shipping costs.
