Cutting Printing Costs On Business Cards, Part I

Printing can cost a fortune. This article will show you how you can cut some of those costs. So the problem to consider is this: how do you make your business card interesting while still keeping your costs down? The obvious method, of course, is to shop around.

This means that the printing costs remain fairly consistent, even over high ....

Web Business - Business Card Integration Part I

This article will help you visualize how you can integrate your business card with your web based business. The key to any good website is its front page--just as your website is an entry point to your business, your front page is an entry point to your website. A good front page accomplishes three tasks: • It invites viewers to learn more about the business. • It's easy to use. • It creates a positive visual impression. This means, above all, that your front page needs to walk a line between complexity and simplicity. A front page that includes a ton of clippings about your business, photos, flashy menus, and busy graphics will bewilder users rather than entice them, while a front page that contains nothing but a list of blue-underlined links to various sections of content may be easy to use, but won't tell viewers anything at all. The ideal solution here--especially for anyone who uses business cards as a central pillar of their promotional strategy--is to use ....

Why Would You Need To Use A Business Card? Part II

High-volume businesses can offset these costs in revenue, but for small or client-based businesses, a print advertisement can mean the difference between profit and loss--and not to your business's advantage. Radio or TV advertising is also a popular option for many businesses: for a few hundred dollars, you can buy advertising space in popular programs or between music playlists. Radio and TV advertising has the potential to reach an even wider audience than print advertising, and the increased technological possibilities--music, a good announcer, even short skits or memorable jingles--can both give potential customers a good sense of your business and make your business memorable and appealing. But radio… There's also a significant cost issue to consider: while one radio spot during peak hours might cost only $50-100, one radio spot is unlikely to reach exactly those listeners who will both benefit from your business and be willing to contact you about your services. In order to make radio advertising a workable option, you'll ....
