I'm ready to order my business cards from vista print. What information do you guys put on the cards? Do you really put your address and home phone number on there? Anywhere to get a FREE 800 #? I do have a private phone # (available at www.privatephone.com (http://www.privatephone.com)) Would that be wise to use? I could just gear my voicemail that I have on there to suit the business? Help! All suggestions appreciated

Don't put your address on it!
I put this on mine;
in the section for addy, phone, etc
I put
Enter the weekly drawing on my site
(put my site)
Email for a free scent sample
(put my email addy)
(put my phone number)
Ask how you can become a Distributor

Yes, do leave the address off. I've got 3 cards. One for fundraising. One general info. And one sizzle. None have my home phone, but a local voice mail number. I have small kids and don't want them answering the business phone. I have different sites listed on different cards.

wow, Mary, I would not have thought to do that! I really like that! I actually do put my addy, but it's a PO box anda cell phone.
I like Mary's idea or Maureen's idea better. PLUS it's SO fun to do on vistaprint!! smileys/smiley36.gif

Any particular reason why you don't put your addresses? I also have my home phone # on my cards. And my cell number is on there too.
I do it because that way when people call me or I send them a package they know that they are dealing with a real person. I put business cards in with my bills too and nobody has called me or mailed me yet....LOLsmileys/smiley2.gif

Quick question, If we get cards at Vista Print we aren't allowed to use the Mia Bella or Scent-Sations names right? I want to make sure before I order. smileys/smiley1.gif

That's right dewdrop. Just generic information.
Yolanda, I put scented business cards in with my bills too - I have signed up a lady by that method smileys/smiley1.gif
I also put my name, phone number, website, email, free candle drawing and a short message.

Good for you deadra! I have plenty of cards so I might start dipping them to get them saturated in SO&CP!smileys/smiley2.gif Only problem is I have a calandar on the back of my cards and I'm afraid it might stain. Other than than I think you have a great idea!

Thats great... I have the business cards that the company provides but I have use vista print in the past and there good. I just have my website address and email address on my cards along with my phone number as well. One thing I do is I add my website addressto all of my return address labels, so on all the mail that goes out at my house, my website address is listed right there on the front of the envelope with my home address on the label.
