Using business cards for advertising

[paydayadvisor]

Morning Guys,

I've ordered myself a shed load of business cards to used as a form of advertising. The plan is to leave one wherever I go, be it trains, tubes, buses, shops, whatever.

Take a look at the design and let me know what you think, of course the 2 images are front and back. Maybe I should have asked for feedback prior to ordering but hey!

Hi There,

Normally cards that are left tend to get tidied away by cleaning staff in the evenings.

Other forms of marketing may be more helpful than scattering business cards randomly.

Regards,

Brilliant, a cleaners average wage makes them a good last ditch audience should nobody be interested prior to them

But thanks for your opinion

It could do with another sentence on what you offer.

You make a good point. It doesn't highlight the advice section we're building :/

I like that it's clean and unfussy.

I have seen a ton of business cards recently that had information and graphics crammed in there with no real purpose. The simple colour-scheme is good too.

That's the advantage of going out with a graphic designer

Definitely like the design! Clean and simple, but with a funky twist. I agree that there could have been more information, but overall it's good.

I like the design but ask yourself:

If you found a business card, no matter the design would you be prompted into ringing the number/emailing etc.?

 

[paydayadvisor]

the reverse has a clear call to action in 'compare for free at'...

I think with it looking fairly interesting in the way the text is arrange, people would be more inclined to have a look to see what it says....

My opinion of course though!

 

[prizeamonth]

the only question i would have is would you be accused of littering for leaving your business cards all over ??
as it has your business name etc on it would you then be liable for a fine if someone "fussy" picks up on it ??

Good, Clean Design & Straight to the point. If you do litter you could receive some negative feedback but worth the risk of getting business?

If you want to get your business details into your Doctor Surgery, let us know & we can arrange a more permanent opition.

Well you have the right idea, you can always pop them in windows of shops and similar for likes 50 pence a week.

Do you intend to fund payday loans personally or affiliate leads?
