    Hello all,

    I was searching for a cost affective website that could help me out with my business cards when I stumbled across this one. They have everything from business cards, flyers, magnets, yard signs, t-shirts, you name it. They use simple designs and make it easy for you to incorporate your own logo. The prices are very good as well!

    I want to also say I am in no way affiliated with this website, just wanted to share it with the community since I know there are many guys who have their own business.

    www.vistaprint.com

    Enjoy!

    I went through Rightlook.com . I also had them my build me a 6 page website, create a business logo,printing my shirts and cards which should be arriving any day. and My website is not going live until the weather clears up a bit here in the heartland. Most people like simple I am more into bright colors and eye catching goodies. The cards are thick High gloss and I have personally never seen cards of the quality that they had shown me a sample of. They can make you anything you want and with very high quality materials. Tri-folds,bi-Folds,Thank You Post Cards,Shirts,hats,embrodery,digital printing, canopys for mobile detailing.......it never ends ..Great people to deal with...as for their detailing products I couldn't tell ya I don't use them and that is because I have a line I have used for years.

    :dance:

    Good Luck in whatever you chose !

    Hey guys - I'm in the process of having a logo and stuff designed, and we're going with professional printing. I'll let you know how it all turns out, and what the pricing looks like.

    I do know that the electronic versions of the logos and whatnot will be in formats suitable for either pro printing, or taking to Kinko's (or similar).

    Dude I went through rightlook and did the training and the whole 9-yards. Overnight prints does the same quality but at the fraction of the price... next time you need brochures or business cards look there, trust me you'll save a LOT of money!

    I just placed my first order with overnightprints.com. I needed new cards with updated info so I used overnightprints this time. Last time i got my cards done I used Vistaprint, its an easy format to use and they quality is great, I got matte finish thick weight cards but what drew me to Overnightprints this time was the UV/Glossy coating and ROUNDED EDGES, I have some other cards from people i know done with the gloss and rounded edges and they really stick out in my mind.

    I will let you know how it goes when I get my new cards, I will compare the two sites.

    Hey Thanks ! I went through the PDR training which I was very impressed with . PDR is something you just have to stay on top off. as for there Detailing program , I asked some questions about it but I very quickly realized my years of detailing was far advanced over what they were teaching. But in any occupation you can't learn in a week or two what hands on experience of 18 years can. I own my Logo and I imagine I should own my business cards layout. I will ask some questions. All my stuff was included in the package. I actually just today recieved my Mytee hp60 Spyder carpet extrtactor . I bought it seperate though. They are great people to work with from my experience. They will wheel and deal with ya.I'll go checkout Overnight Prints....
    :dance:

    Thanks Again !

    Those rounded edge cards sound like they would look pretty classy, being that every card we ever see is a solid rectangle. I can understand why they would stand out...
    very cool !:chips:

    I do all of my flyers, business cards, etc. in either Photoshop or Corel and print them at home on proper flyer and business card paper. They look fantastic, too. I'm just one of those "can't see paying someone to do something I'm capable of doing" guys though.

    Amen ! All I need really is business cards,website and some Thank You post cards. I don't have any employees and I stay busy enough with my car lots and word of mouth. If I decide to expand someday it will be a new ballgame and I will need those other items..
