I was talking about starting up a very small gardening business next spring in an earlier post. I’ve been thinking about starting a number of seedlings for some of the more specialized plants that I grow in my gardens and then selling the surplus online through mail order.

It might be a good idea to create some business cards for this venture. I remember when I had my own jewelry trade business. The first business cards I had printed up were very nice but very expensive. My company name was “Gold Cuts” and the cards had the name of my company in gold on a very light beige card paper.

I came across a site earlier today that does free business cards, and not only can you get free business cards through this online company but you can learn how to design your own cards and read articles about the make up of a good business card such as what should be on the card, should you print your own cards and so on.

If you have your own company, small business or even just a website you might want to get some free business cards made up too. I used to have some business cards for my big “reptile” website. It made it so much easier to give contact information out when I met new people that wanted to pick my brain about reptile care. I could just hand them my card and say get a coffee or two and read the whole site – then contact me if you have more questions.
