Free Launch Kit
The blueprint to start. Always free.
No franchise. The kit shows you how to launch a yard card side hustle, including how to get signs. Keep it even if you never start a trial.
Step by step launch guide
How to get your first local celebrations without guessing the order of operations.
Marketing templates
Ready Nextdoor, Facebook, and porch drop copy plus talk tracks you can localize fast.
Pricing & talk tracks
Package formulas, first-display quotes, and what to say when neighbors hesitate.
The signs
There's an upfront investment, and affordable ways in.
Unlike laundry, yard cards need physical signs. Buy new, start lean with used inventory or a supplier value pack, or ask Cardie support for a startup pack shipped to your door.
Buy what you need
Start with the mains and letters your area books most. Grow the set as the work fills.
Used & value packs
Affordable used yard cards and supplier value packs are a smart way to open without overspending.
Cardie startup pack
Reach out to Cardie support and we can send a value startup pack straight to your door.
Why Cardie
The signs get you started. Cardie runs the work.
Yard cards are joyful. Managing bookings, inventory, and install nights by hand is not. Cardie automates the ops so the side hustle can grow.

For entrepreneurs
Your territory. Your packages. Your hours.
Run installs and pickups on your schedule. Keep the relationships local. Let Cardie hold the booking and inventory stack together.
Your packages, your prices
Offer the yard card packages you want — birthday, baby, congrats, seasonal — and charge what your neighborhood will pay.
Calendars that match the work
Customers pick the event date. You set default pickup timing, then adjust per job when they book extra days.
Inventory that stays basic
Track the big celebration signs, letters and numbers, and prop categories. Enough to know what's available, nothing warehouse-y.
A local booking page
Neighbors book on your Cardie page with the details you need to build the display.
For neighbors

Cardie runs through local operators. Book on the page they share with you. They handle install and pickup.
Celebrate on their lawn
Birthdays, babies, grads, anniversaries. Neighbors book a display for the big day.
Tell you what they need
Occasion, name, colors, address, and access notes land with the booking so you can build it right.
