Business Cards?

[jeg0024]

I was just sitting around earlier and thought that it would be cool to have some sort of business card promoting the forum. I know aMaff was posting the other day that he left a note on a Mazda he parked beside the other day, but wouldn't it be so much easier to have a business card kinda thing you could just pass out or slap on someones ride to help promote the site? I know I try to refer people when I go to the local track and local car shows but they never sign up, maybe it would help them remeber the site better or remind them to come see what were all about if they had a physical reminder. They don't have to be anything fancy or expensive, just something that gets the point across and can help get our name out there. Does anyone know where we could possibly get something like this made? Anyone else think this would be cool and should be something that we look into doing? I don't know, but theres my opinion

I looked into getting some business cards made for my business at staples/business/office depot.

For 250 cards it was 75-80$ CND. They take 7-10 business days to print.

I ended up buying card stock and printer cartridges and doing it myself. The cards are a little thinner but like you said they get the point across. Most people just throw them in their pocket or wallet anyways.

or you could get free business cards at vistaprint.com

Good ideas guys...I've also wondered about having cards made to promote the site here in Japan...I'd love to have authentic business cards that look and feel "professional"...I have come across some people that would be great to network with and passing out your business card is a VERY traditional and an important custom here...

Keep posting those options guys! (thumb)

i went on that vistaprint.com thing. and the free business cards they promote have like nothing custom about them. just plain text and the standard stuff.

it would be really cool if we had something more upscale.
