A good target audience would be the students (esp seniors) - sending a thank you note after an interview.
Students are not known for spending on things like this.

But their mothers are.
Edit: Sorry, I misread the GP comment. I'm a high school teacher, so I automatically thought of graduating (HS) seniors sending out thank you notes to those who'd sent a gift.

#13Am I the only one here who doesn't like the basic premise of this service?
Why is a handwritten note better than an email? I would argue that it is because the handwritten note is more authentic and genuine. If you then pay someone else to write them, then the value is destroyed. You lose the essence of the 'handwrittenness'
This service also has the ability to backfire on the note sender: If I was to get one of these, and later find out that it came from some external service with an API and a pricing plan, I'd be much more annoyed than not getting anything at all.
