Resource: High Quality, Affordable Business Cards

Last month I posted several articles on creating business cards that work. Here's a resource for ordering your cards.

My graphic designer creates my business card to match my message and website. I just give him the written content for the front and back of the card and he takes care of the rest.

I always get compliments on my cards and I've never paid more than $20 - $30 for a set of 100 - 250 cards by printing my cards through VistaPrint.

Here's what I love about VistaPrint.com:

even if you don't have a professionally designed business card they have beautiful templates you can start with
they have free cards (that come with a very light vistaprint.com logo on the back) if you're completely strapped for cash
if you rather design your own card, you can use their state-of-the-art online design software (so easy to use!) and put together your own (I did this for years)
it takes only minutes to upload your own, professionally designed card (they print more than business cards by the way)
they have weekly sales
the cards come in a heavy, good quality card-stock
you can choose from a variety of finishes - glossy, matte, etc… - on your card
if you aren't sure what your brand is, at these prices, you can afford to get up and running with a "starter card" from VistaPrint
I've used them for over seven years without a glitch
