So what does a legally blind guy do who doesn't drive about signs?
Should I hand out pens with business cards?

I heartily agree . . . I've had the same thing happen many times . . .
there is a down side though . .  you have to drive sensibly all the time
!!
I also have my website address on the back, and have had customers email
me . . . "I was following you down main street . . ."
works better than newspaper ads !! . . . also good for visibility, even
if people aren't looking for iommediate service . . .

Been following the thread and was reminded today of a very important
source of business: The vinyl lettering on my truck!
 
I parked across the street from a small town restaurant (lunch!) and
found a note on my windshield from a new customer. Then, while
depositing some checks at the bank, a lady in the drive-up lane next to
mine was miming and mouthing "Do you tune pianos?" and "Do you have a
card?" after which she snuck out of her car and came over to get my
card.
 
I paid about $250 for lettering and pictures (both sides and back). This
one-time expense has repaid itself many, many times.
