All things print

12 08 2008

Last week I was trying to print some of my own quality business cards and flyers, I thought what better way to get cheap flyers than to print them myself.  I was soooo wrong though the effort required to print something that looked half decent was huge.  In the end I just decided that I didn’t have the right equipment to print at the desired quality.  I am still deciding as to whether I should purchase a new printer or get them professionally printed, either way I don’t think I am going to be able to carry out the printing all that cheaply.





Quality Business Cards

23 06 2008

Again a slightly off topic post, but I have been finding a couple of things very strange recently – whilst I have been travelling around playing tennis, I keep bumping into the same old people.  What has surprised me so much is the number of business cards that I have been given.  I cannot knock the business cards in any way as they have all been quality business cards with some great printing detail.  However I just dont understand why have been given these business cards whilst playing in a tennis tournament!  In terms of business card printing its most likely great for the printing industry, however do I need matt laminated business cards – I think not, I want to play tennis, talk tennis and drink beer.  Do I want to be constantly reminded of the opponents that I have either beaten of lost too – not really!!!!

End rant.
