More Business Card Design Information

In case you missed it the first time, here’s a repost of an old Scrapbook Update post on preparing for CHA by designing business cards with some great links to business card resources in it:

Preparing Fabulous Business Cards

My MOO Cards Arrived!

A few weeks ago I wrote about MOO Cards and their potential uses for marketing for scrapbook companies and businesses. I remembered being given some of “those funny shaped cards” before at a conference as contact cards but didn’t know where they had come from. When Wendy recommended them on Sparkplugging, I was very excited to read about them!

I’m going to be attending a national autism conference next week and want to be able to share the URL of my new autism website, CafĂ© Autism, with people I meet. MOO MiniCards seemed like the perfect way to do it! So I designed and ordered some. Although I could have had a different graphic on each of the card backs, I opted to have the same graphic on each one (my site’s logo).

The cards arrived today and they are beautiful!

The black background of the graphic is perfectly saturated and the white is clean and bright. The cards have a very nice matte finish to them. The tiny type on the back is perfectly readable and positioned correctly.

The only thing that had made me at all nervous about using MOO after the enthusiastic recommendation from Wendy was the international shipping from their London location but that went off without a hitch. The cards arrived in the early part of the shipping window they provided me. They were in a plastic envelope, and packaged inside of that in sturdy recyclable plastic boxes that are perfect for storing the cards in (or for packing in suitcases) while they are waiting to be used.

In addition to their unique small-sized cards, this week MOO also started offering full-sized business cards. The new MOO business cards have the same features as their mini-cards, including the ability to put a different image on the back of each one.

If you have something that you need to promote and be memorable, check out MOO!
