Create a business card, without buying software, paper or ink? - EASY!
Create a business card without paying for it, either? - NO PROBLEM!
You've heard that "There's no such thing as a free lunch" and "You get what you pay for." It's true when it comes to creating a free business card, too. Even though you can create a free business card at multiple places online, you have to be careful - you've got to weigh what the company offers against what you're expected to pay (in terms of confidential information, privacy, service, quality or whatever.)
One well-known Internet printer offers free business cards - but their free business cards have ads on the back, are smaller and thinner than the norm, and the company has an "Unsatisfactory" rating from the Better Business Bureau, with multiple complaints of unauthorized credit card charges. So in this case, the "catch" is that your free business cards can actually cost you business (because they're perceived as unprofessional) and that you may be hit with credit card charges you didn't expect. Other business card printers offer free business cards - but the catch is that the cards are free with an order. Order brochures and you get free business cards. Order 500 business cards and you'll get 500 more free. So you still have to lay out money for your "free" business cards.
I suggest you create your free business card here...
One free business card offer that's worth pursuing is the one from PrintsMadeEasy.com, a leader in business card design and printing solutions.
What they've done is provided a $14.99 discount - the cost of 100 business cards - for any customer wishing to try their business cards at no cost. PME customers have the ability to fully customize their designs, the customer service is great, orders are shipped quickly and there's even a money-back guarantee on shipping and handling fees (if they are unsatisfied with their cards). The "catch" with this company? You have to pay for shipping (currently $6.95 in the continental US) and that's about it! Naturally, the company hopes that when you get your free business card order, you'll like them enough to pay for future orders. A reasonable hope on their part, and a good deal for you.
