Business Cards

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

I want to get some made. Basically looking for as cheap as possible seen as it's coming from pocket. Any suggestions for websites? My searches weren't too fruitful.

[MeFryRice]

I will talk to Walter (president of S2KAtlanta) and see what they used. :)

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

Groovy. I think rotornut has some custom cards too.

[RotorNutFD3S]

Yeah, I had someone that would make just about anything you want. From glossy to clear cards (which are my favorite). I can see what I can get for a deal. What do we want them to have?
The simple ones that we have for RoadsterStyle simply have RoadsterStyle.com in the middle, the admin email address, and a referrer line where you write in your screenname.

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

I like your ones. Well actually, I'll like whatever's cheapest :D

[RotorNutFD3S]

:) Can you (or anyone that gets to this first) embed in a post the image file for the logo that is used for the stickers? I can't access it since it's hosted on photobucket, and I need it.

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

You'll hve to cut them up in paint or something, I would spend time looking for the right one but I've got t run to class

[RotorNutFD3S]

Thanks! It's the bottom one! I have something going for us. Will update as I have info.

[RotorNutFD3S]

So, do we want to go plain with the logo and Referred By line? Or do we want to add a slogan or something? I've got plenty of room to work with.

[RotorNutFD3S]

This is what we have basically. The logo image should be clearer than it appears right now as this is a rough draft. And the border line will not appear on the final draft.
What else can we add?

[MeFryRice]

I like the clear card idea but I doubt the material used will allow for writing on.

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

Nice Miata! Be sure to drop by and check out....?

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

Nice Miata, meet the community at...

[RotorNutFD3S]

Yeah, I love the clear cards cause you can get multiple colors, etc. HOWEVER, the cost is annoyingly high, and you better have a Sharpie just for writing on them. lol So we'll settle for the matte paper.

How about "Nice Miata! Join the local community online at:"?

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

sounds good, yeah cheap as possible is the main thing

[MeFryRice]

If the card was clear, it'd be harder for the owner of the car to see if you were to place it on the windshield.

[RotorNutFD3S]

Here's an updated preview then:

[attachment=149]

I'm getting a good deal on 1,000, so this will be my contribution to the forum. :)

[RotorNutFD3S]

If the card was clear, it'd be harder for the owner of the car to see if you were to place it on the windshield.


Right, which is why when I normally order those, I get them in blue or red with gold lettering. Very hard to miss!

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

That's a good design.

[MeFryRice]

Eric, if you want, I can pitch in some money to pay for the cards?!

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

I'll create a fund if you want. What are the prices there?

[RotorNutFD3S]

The design is still rough. Gotta go in and heighten the resolution on the logo, center everything up, and make it all even.

Steve, if you'd like, it's completely up to you. Really not necessary though, I'm only paying $15 for 1,000 cards. If that breaks the bank, I'm in trouble. lol

[Doppelgänger]

damn Eric, that looks killer!

[RotorNutFD3S]

I'll create a fund if you want. What are the prices there?Not necessary. Like I said, happy to contribute!

damn Eric, that looks killer!
Thanks Mike!

[RotorNutFD3S]

OK, one more question before I submit this to the printer: Do we want anything in different colors? Or just black on white?

[MeFryRice]

what about blue or red on white? give it some appeal...

[RotorNutFD3S]

I like that idea. How's this? Red on main text, black logo, and dark blue referrer.

[attachment=151]

[MeFryRice]

Perfect! :D

[RotorNutFD3S]

I like it too. We'll wait for our fearless leader to approve and move on from there!

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

Oh I approve :cool:

Thanks a huge amount for doing this! The red doesn't cost you more does it??

[RotorNutFD3S]

Nope, it's all the same cost! :)

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

Groovy, that's a much better price than what I was finding online.

[RotorNutFD3S]

Good to hear. So everything is set, I should have them in a week or so. The final cost was a little higher as I opted to spend $5 more and get 1500 total. :) We shouldn't run out for a very long time. lol

[MeFryRice]

Are you going to be the only person handing these out or will I be able to snag a couple from you?

[RotorNutFD3S]

NO! You can't have any!
Of course I'm going to give you some cards!

What are you doing right now? My dad just called me and said the new turbo showed up on the doorstep today. I want to share it's perfection with someone. lol

[MeFryRice]

I will definitely have to see it when I get back!

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

We all need to disperse the cards, divide and conquer :D

[FE3tMX5]

Use the font in the website header- reduce the goofy factor. :D

[RotorNutFD3S]

They've already been ordered.

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

Don't worry they look great and will do the job nicely.

[RotorNutFD3S]

I just got notification that they are on their way to me! Will update when I receive them!

[Doppelgänger]

I came across a cool orange na up in gwinnett one evening... nice custom color car with some other work done. I left him a note to checkout CR (this was last year) but they never showed up :(

[RotorNutFD3S]

Yeah, I've left a few CR cards on some Miatas I've seen, but no results. Hopefully we'll have more positive response from these!

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

Oh we shall :cool:

[RotorNutFD3S]

We waste no time...

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

They look fantastic!

[RotorNutFD3S]

Thanks!

They're made from a good 80 lb. stock, so they're thick.[hr]
I have no idea when I'm going to be able to get these to everyone. Maybe if Steve and LB make it to a meet or gathering and I don't, they can get them up there.

[MeFryRice]

We can meet tonight if you want.....just let me know! :D

[RotorNutFD3S]

Will do. What time do you get out of work?

[MeFryRice]

I get off at 5 but I have to return the truck back to GFC in Alpharetta. I'll give you call when we're on our way back. :)

[RotorNutFD3S]

Sounds like a winner to me then.
