Sending business sympathy cards to express condolences to individuals suffering the loss of a loved one is a sensitive and personal matter. It is difficult enough choosing proper condolence cards and finding the correct words to say to those people we know well, such as family and close friends. But it is an even more delicate situation sending sympathy cards for business to individuals with whom we have a professional relationship. We may not know our co-workers, clients and customers on quite the same personal level; care must be taken to select the proper means of conveying these wishes in company sympathy cards and in the words we express.

Sending sympathy cards shows concern for the person with whom you work or do business with. It may be easier to express these feelings in business sympathy cards rather than wait for an in-person meeting with the grieving individual upon their return to work or business. Most people feel uncomfortable with public displays of emotion, especially in the workplace. Condolence cards should be sent in addition to flowers or a food basket sent by the company. It is never a good idea to send these words of sympathy through email or text messages, which are too impersonal for conveying these thoughts.

A person’s religious background should be considered when sending company sympathy cards. It may not be appropriate to mention prayers or God for business sympathy cards if you are not sure what the individual’s religious beliefs are. A simple expression such as “thinking of you” may be more suitable if one is not sure of the recipient’s faith or upbringing.

From a business point of view, it is important to have company sympathy cards readily available to send out to employees, clients and customers. These greeting cards are ideally sent out as soon as possible upon hearing of a co-worker’s or business acquaintance’s loss. A variety of designs are available with flowers, tranquil scenes or just the words “In Sympathy” on front. Simply-stated greetings of condolence are also available. Since these condolence wishes are being sent from the company, they can personalized with the company logo, the company name or left blank for a handwritten signature to be added. They can also be left blank inside for a more personal handwritten note to the co-worker or client who is suffering the loss of their loved one. It is important to let the bereaved know they are thought of and supported by those they work with.
