A compliment slip is a printed note that accompanies business correspondence or deliveries. It typically includes a brief message, company logo, and contact details. The main purpose is to add a personal touch to your communication, whether you’re sending documents, samples, or products. Compliment slips make your business look more professional and help build a stronger connection with clients.
A typical compliment slip includes your company name, logo, contact details (phone number, email, and website), and a brief message, such as “With Compliments.” There’s also space for a short handwritten note if desired, making it a simple yet effective way to personalise your communication with clients or business partners.
Compliment slips can help enhance your customer relationships by adding a personal and professional touch to your communications. By including a handwritten message or simply signing the slip, you show that you value the recipient. This small gesture can make clients feel more appreciated, which may foster stronger, longer-term business relationships.
In the UK, compliment slips are typically printed in DL size (210mm x 99mm), which allows them to fit neatly inside a standard DL envelope. This size provides enough space for your logo, contact details, and a brief message while remaining compact and easy to include with your correspondence.
Compliment slips are generally printed on uncoated 90gsm or 120gsm paper to allow for easy handwriting. Uncoated paper has a natural, textured finish, which makes it easy to write on and adds a touch of sophistication. Heavier paper stocks can be used for a more premium feel, but they should remain practical for everyday business use.
Compliment slip printing typically takes 2-4 working days, depending on the print service and complexity of the design. If you require special finishes like embossing or custom colours, this may add to the turnaround time.
