ok here's the deal. I've designed a new business card for myself. It looks like an old wanted poster with that type of font for the information. I wanted to put a saying on the back.. but what should i say? I've read some of you guys' signature and I love some of them but I can only choose just one per printing run. Any ideas? I'm looking for catchy like "my hands and your eyes were in a race, my hands won"... but not preaching type like "faith is believing in what you can't see, illusion is seeing what you can't believe." Don't get me wrong I love that saying but it's not my style to put it on a business card. Any ideas? Semi-serious posts please ^_^

My suggestion.

Have Your Name in big bold letters on the back. The left half in big bold letters and the right half in italic handwriting. A line going through the middle. Then at the bottom, "(your name)____ Blurring the line inbetween reality and illusion."

Hey Guys,

By any chance, have you heard any of the Performer's Podcasts by Tyas Frantz?
(Sorry if it sounded like a promo.) If you haven't, please do. Tyas goes into detail about what should be on a business card. Trust me, even if you have the best business card on the market, it's still going to go in the same place as the other.

Sometimes big flashy cards are not respected as much as plain white stock cards.
Learned that the hard way.

So to sum up, only have the bare essentials on a business card. You sell yourself. The cards are the reminder of who you are.

Peace and Love,

Mitch.Conroy

It really is man.

I have a whole deck of Buisness card Cards. *Playing cards* But i only have those just for fun.

I forgot to mention, for a border In super small squished together lettering i have every card printed but just looking at the card it looks like a red border which is nice

and i keep the 7 black or slightly darker red so it stands out a bit, So i always have a force card.

Yeah. But I also have 12 decks of cards in the mail, and 30$ of nonm-card magic stuff in the mail. So I couldn;t spring the money to have the cards made WITHOUT the logo.

Unfortunatly the one of the hardest things with magic is you must spend money to make money.

Have fun with the sponge balls.
