Business Cards

[Cy Shuster]

This is one area where you need to spend money to make money.  Cards seem to 
be the most effective form of advertising.  Plus, people compare your cards 
with others, so quality counts.  Vistaprint is OK, but they're expensive if 
you want to use your own graphics.  My son is a graphic designer and did 
mine (http://stylesdavis.com); my local printer did them for $90 per 
thousand (color).  I leave my service record with the customer in a vinyl 
folder with a business card holder; they seem to stay around in the bench 
longer than just a card.

For a real professional look, have a whole stationery set designed: card, 
letterhead, envelope, invoice, and car signs.
