Default Business Card Review (Revised My Cards!)
Okay, Team...one more look...is the back of my card too wordy or should I just keep the basic themes on there instead of giving too much info?

I'm at the final stages of my card ( ) and want to get them printed in the next day or so. I'd love any honest opinions.

Here's the link: http://www.virtualassistantforums.co...frontnback.jpg

Much better, I think... The only thing I would say you might want to change is where it says "call, click or email" at the bottom. I know technology has come along way, but....

Looking at it again, maybe you meant to say, "click" because you didn't have room for your email. If that's the case, maybe you could just say, "Contact me," since you have all the necessary contact info. on the front

Really?! I kind of like that, but I'd love to hear what others think. Any others out there who feel the same way?

I'm going with the majority vote, as I'm a newbie and want to attract the right clientele.

Thanks, Stephanie! I truly appreciate your feedback. I may just delete that!

Ok, now that I know you meant to do it, it is kind of cute but, just like I did a second take, you don't want your clients to think that it was a mistake also. But, it is cute, so please don't get me wrong...lol

NO offense taken, Stephanie--all is good. But I'm still struggling as to whether or not I even want to put as much detail as I have now that it's updated. I don't know if I should just put the main headers such as General Office Support, Desktop Publishing, etc.

It's quite the head-scratcher for me!

On the back of the card at the bottom you wrote "don't see a something you need?" I think that is a typo. It should say "Don't see something you need?" That would be horrible if you had your cards printed and then found a typo.

Hi Kathya,

I love the card (again) lol Yes, the typo must go. But, other than that, it still looks great.

I like it! I would also change the 'call...' to contact me, though.

I'd highly recommend putting your email address on the card. I've found that most people want to be able to just send an email as their first contact. The 'click' is also a bit confusing. As much as I love the look, the back is a bit busy. We once made the mistake of having so much information on the back of our cards that there was no place for people to jot down a note. When someone gets your card at a networking event, they usually want to note on the back some information and if there's too much there, that can be challenging.

Love your logo!

Thanks EVERYONE!

I'm taking everyone's advice and revising one more time. I won't bug anyone with the new revisions!

Sue, my email address is at the top of the card in the black section of the card under my name. It's sort of hard to see due to the lack of quality shrinking to share with you all. But, it's just about final. All advice about the text will be taken. Thanks to all! You're all the best! v
