Overview

Compliment slips are the short note of business stationery: a DL sheet with your logo and details, and space for a handwritten line such as with compliments, here are the samples, or thanks for your order. They are quicker than a letter and more personal than nothing at all.

What compliment slips are used for

Anything that goes out of the door and deserves a few words.

  • A coffee roaster adding a tasting note to each mail order.
  • An accountant returning signed papers to a client.
  • A fabric shop sending swatches.
  • A garage handing back a car with the invoice.

Paper and size

Every slip is DL, 99 × 210 mm, a third of an A4 sheet, so it fits a DL envelope flat.

Paper Feel Best for
90gsm smooth white Light, writes like office paper High volumes in parcels and post
120gsm smooth white Fuller, more considered Client mail, matching a 120gsm letterhead
170gsm smooth white Stiff, almost card-like Gift orders, samples, boutique packaging

All three are smooth and uncoated, so a pen glides across them and the ink dries quickly.

Front only or both sides

Front only is the classic choice; both sides adds room for more.

The reverse can carry a returns note, a discount code for the next order or care instructions. A candle maker, for example, might print wick-trimming tips on the back.

Matching your stationery

Use the same paper weight and design as your letterheads and continuation sheets for a set that looks planned. Many firms keep compliment slips in the same drawer as their letterheads and reach for them more often.
