Great news! I’ve ordered some more business cards today, and I’m really excited to see how this batch turns out. After toying with the colors, I came up with something simple and readable. More importantly, I kept the web design lingo to a bare minimum, while making it clear what I focus on: simple, clean, useable web sites.
I think I accomplished this goal.
I got enough printed up so that I can give these out liberally to all of the folks that I know in the Atlanta and Alpharetta area, Jason at Spotlight Sound Studio (who will be helping me by sending business from his recording studio early on), or simply people I meet in my day to day travels. Having something to put in their hand is important to getting your foot in the door. Plus, let’s be honest – getting printed stuff in the mail (ESPECIALLY when it’s your own) is really neat.
I used the guys at overnightprints.com, as they generally provide prompt, quality service (not to mention great UV coating and rounded corners at a very reasonable price). I got 250 cards for about $30 total, and I also got some free cards from their new ‘free cards’ section. If you haven’t checked out their site, I highly recommend it for both personal and business use.
The cards should arrive in about 2 weeks – I’ll be sure to post some pictures of them once they’re in my hands.
