Treat your client like crap, offer poor service and get paid anyway!

Wow, US guys charge 800 bucks for a single postcard design?

I think that`s a Porsche BTW... Steep roofline with bulging rear fenders...

Don`t like the tagline though... Sorry.

Thanks everybody for your opinions. (I didn`t know I was going to get beat up over my tag line!!-LOL)

I ended up with 4 different cards and I had a hard time comming up with 4 tag lines.

Joe,

If you ever need design work done I had my logo created by CkretAjint and he did a great job! He worked with me till I was happy, gave me plenty of options...and the price was perfect! I cant wait until I run out of business cards so I can have more made up with the logo he made me!

I`ll jump on the bandwagen here, and tell you what I think about the tagline; It`s seems to have some sexual connotations, and to imply infidelity as well. I don`t think it`s as classy as your business is, and should be portrayed. Seems a little to ti**ie-bar(ish), IMHO. The rest of it looks great, wish the ones I already have coming in the mail looked so good...

Thanks for all the input.

I wanted the tag line to mean that I will put all the skill, labor and passion into your car like I do mine.

I am not a copywriter by profession. That came from my heart. More people dislike it than do like it.

It will be third in a string of 4 cards that each person on the emailing list will get. When all 4 are put together it tells kind of a little story. I am hoping it paints a picture of how I want Superior Shine to be seen.

Again, thanks all for taking the time to reply to this thread.

That`s a cool idea. I have just come up with my third idea for postcards. I was thinking about shuffling the different designs around to each list that I have, kinda like what you`re doing.

Gonna try out the rule that I read read somewhere from a former salesman about contact everyone 7 times. So i guess I will use current lists for a while, then buy more.

Multiple version of cards is a good idea.

In our shop, we have around 6-8 different card designs, but mostly, it`s only the car in the background and "effects" that differs, not the context.

We give out "Honda" cars if we give them to Honda clubs/owners, and so on and so forth.

In addition, we print our "cards" directly to matte/silk photopaper from the usual photo developing shops.

You get sharp, full colour printing at very low cost.
