Got my logo designed up, now I am kicking around what else to put on the card. I am going to put phone, website, and slogan (if I can think of one). I don't know if I want to put my name on it or not. Do you all have your name on there? And if so what do you call yourself? Owner/Technician...Lastly, if anyone is on the Lynx network do they put a small lynx logo on there too?

Mrchip is right. Mine are very simple and no body really cares at all LOL. I used to bother putting them on cars I seen with chips but since after many many cards being left I never got a call I assumed they all went on the ground or trash right away. Just business name, my name( repair tech ) phone,fax, address but probably not necessary really if you only mobile like me. don't spend much unless you just have tons of money to blow and if thats the case I would rather just send some to me :)

Based on my efforts to wear all hats at this point with my business, I did a little research and here is what I designed based on the Ogilvy ad layout formula.(mini ad layout). Now there are different schools of thought for cards so go with what works. Just depends on what your needs are. I felt for WSR to keep it simple and attractive but informative on the front and educational on the back.

Look at: http://desktoppub.about.com/cs/pagelayo ... d_info.htm for ideas.

I bought 10,000 cards from vista print, 100# premium stock, full color front and back and had them in like five days. $267.35 shipped. I am very pleased.

Hopefully the cards uploaded.

FYI, you have to expand the files to get to actual scale and eliminate blurr.

Jeff,
Did I post these images correct? They do not seem to open and they say pending approval. No big deal, just want to make sure I am uploading the right way. Thanks
