Simple Business Cards

I know there are designers who argue a business card can be a waste of money and it would be much better investing in more web marketing, but I just can't help myself when it comes to owning something tangible. I feel safe that I can whip out a card at any time to a member of the public in dire Internet need - such as on a Cross Country train service to Bournemouth around 4pm - and gaining a new client.

I kept my new cards extremely simple; I haven't chosen UV highlights or Foil as I have in the past, my design has a black front and white back with rounded corners just to stand out a little.

The cards were produced by Good Print based in Norfolk who I chose because of their simple website and half-price offer. The cards came quickly but I was disappointed and found they had problems, though this was actually the start of a good thing. Good Print's customer service is as-it-should-be, they responded quickly, politely and had a new set sent by next-day courier for absolutely nothing so I could meet my deadlines. The second set is perfect a big thank you goes to Good Print, and a strong recommendation from me.
