Unique, funky, and affordable business cards?? - Virtual Assistant Forums

We all know and love VistaPrint, but have you heard of i-yo?? They have the coolest selection of unusual, funky business card designs I think I've ever seen.
Truly a unique way to market yourself - imagine of all the hundreds of business cards being passed around (they all basically look the same, don't they?) there's your own, brightly colored, enhanced with funky, fresh graphics - it's going to stand out *and* be easier to spot amongst the others.

Check out i-yo for truly unique, funky, and affordable business cards!

I love them! I'm going to get some for my hubby (I found the perfect design!)

Fun! It's so true - a little splash of color makes *all* the difference. And these, well, they're just gigantic splashes of color

Granted, they have some pretty bizarre designs, but that's the whole point!

Oh I love them! Definatly would catch my eye!

Oh I am SO disappointed, this company is no longer in business - it figures that right when I'm ready to order our new business cards they turn up missing...

Does anyone know of any other really unusual sites to order funky biz cards from? I'd love any and all suggestions!

Tess, check out this link. Of course, not sure how you actually would go about making ANY of these, but some of them are sooooo cool! I love the dental practice one with the teeth imprint.

Ooh, here are some more cool ones. Yeah I know they're not practical but they sure are fun to look at!

Yes, I was looking at these today, they are so cool! I actually tracked down a few of the companies but the ones we like are of course like $5 each - egads! Maybe next year!!

For now, I'm working on a design of my own and will pay Kinko's to print!

Tess, did you see this company? They have die-cut templates and then you can design your own. Not sure of the price though. But wouldn't this be cool? And I guess if there are any scrapbookers out there who have one of those Crickut (sp?) machines, they could make their own unique cards! Hmmmm, now I'm thinkin'......

Since my logo is a Hand, maybe I could do something like that. Of course, I just bought 250 cards from Vista Print! Ugh.

For those of you that are in the US check out Staples. I was able to get 100 business cards for $3.99 and they are high gloss and look pretty cool. They have a lot of designs to choose from and you can change colors, fonts, etc. I don't order more than 100 at a time but I like to change my look every now and again.

Thanks Lisa that's a great tip, do you know if they let you print a custom design? That's a great price - and I know everyone is going to say 'VistaPrint' but I don't trust them after they seriously mucked up a client order....

Tess...the Staples website is still offering the $3.99 but it appears they have changed the pricing to delivery. Sometimes it is available in-store. I do believe they let you upload custom graphics but not sure. Hope this helps!
