(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nPer Retail Dive, Target's 2026 digital holiday catalog features toys and a new mechanism allowing customers to incorporate handwritten wish lists into the shopping experience.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): your catalog, wishlist, or gift-guide experience should have an off-ramp to handwriting. If you sell to gifters (anything with holiday reach), add a 'print this list' or 'write notes here' section in your digital guide. Better yet: let customers upload a photo of a handwritten list and match it to your SKUs. The mechanic isn't about the handwriting; it's about honoring the buyer's existing process instead of forcing a new one. Run a test: offer a printable PDF version of your gift guide with blank lines for notes, then track how many people download it vs. use the digital version.\nWhat that means for you: your catalog, wishlist, or gift-guide experience should have an off-ramp to handwriting.
