I just thought id pass on a cool website that does online printing that I have used
and have been very pleased with the results.

http://www.overnightprints.com/

Found them through a Google search and had them do my business cards, Full color high gloss thick cards and the price was very reasonable.

Today I placed an order for 500 full color brochures that I will be handing out at the 5th annual Budweiser Blues Festival in Jackson Mi June 1,2 and 3. There expected to be 20,000 people there and I managed to get one of only 15 artists booths to show my guitars at.

Anyways, I got a quote from my local office supply chain for 320.00 for 200 brochures, overnight prints cost was 159.00 for 500 brochures and that includes UPS ground.

I know we all try to save money when we can and this seems to be a good place to at least check out.

Anybody else use the folks?

Hesh! you and Lacey should come! John Lee Hooker Jr is the headliner, there are a Ton of other artists playing too. This festival started out 5 years ago with under 2500 people, last year there were 13500 and they expect over 20k this year. I think its 12 or 15 bucks to get in.

Well then, get some small gummed stickers printed up with that charming (whatever it is), and stick 'em on the back of your cards.

You know, a final impression of the builder....

For the last show that I did, the San Antonio Ukulele festival, I had stickers printed.

I laid them out on my table and by the end of the show it seemed that every case had my logo and contact information on it. Folks love to stick things on their cases!
