Takin' it to the next level; business cards!

Yeah it was and is a risky card to use. But it's working wonders. Just the other day, I was out shooting downtown in some Japanese Gardens and came across this lovely lady:

I gave her my card so that she could email me and I could reply and send her the photo of herself. I went on my way and continued through the garden. Half an hour later, I'm distracted shooting some large old ornate bell and some random lady comes up to me and says "Hey, you have a great business card!". I felt like replying with "Thank you, but who the hell are you?".

I guess it's working as intended!

Marketing is all about separating your product from the herd, and I think you've done this quite effectively. Kudos!

I'm sitting here having just ordered some really plane-jane business cards and thinking... "wellllllllllllll crap." lol

I think I'll be ordering another set. I definitely need to do something more creative.

Thanks for the post and the inspiration. I LOVE the card you chose.
