Getting really inexpensive Business Cards

One way to get the word out about your business is with business cards.  You can hand them out, and leave them places to get your business known.  One way to cut the cost of business cards is to create them yourself.  You can easily download some free business card software, and use one of their templates to create your own business cards.  You can then go to a place like Staples, buy business card paper, and print them yourself.  That is the most inexpensive way to go. 

If on the other hand you don’t want to make them yourself, but don’t want to pay a lot either, you can use VistaPrint.  They will send you 250 free business cards, you just have to pay for shipping.  What is the catch you ask?  On the back, it does have a small ad for VistaPrint at the bottom.  I am looking at one of mine right now, and the exact words on the back are “Business Cards are FREE at www.vistaprint.com!”  I have gotten these myself, and am happy with them.   The quality of the card is nice, and they did a great job with the business cards.  You can choose between 42 designs, and can add the text that you like.   If you don’t want the ad, and want to be able to choose from more templates, you can pay $9.99 for their premium business cards, where you will get a choice of 300 designs.

I have found that it feels more professional when talking about your business to someone, to just take out a business card and give the person one.  Maybe that will get them to visit your website, or to pass it along to someone else.  You never know!Š
