dude that is really awesome I think I will have to do it too hahahah really it is different, people is used to see usually lights or equipment pics and letters on a business card, but never their dj I think is absolute genius... I will do it maybe... I need to come up with a new one cause mine now is not good... Thanks for the vid.
Top job John, love the new business card think It is a very good plan to be putting a photo of yourself on there I will be defo going down this road with my next bulk order. Your are so right In what you say, "first impression's" are always key, I so think this to. Also I try to give the right image to my company's name with everything I do. All the best buddy keep up the good work.
I think it's really good idea of putting picture of you on business-card. It's just like Facebook photos - people just want to see your face.
Your new business-card project is really good. I didn't like your previous project from VistaPrint, because it was looking not so stylish.
In your new b-acard project, in future, I would consider to increase contrast of text in the front of bride and groom photo. Also as background you can use free pro photos from sxc [dot] hu and similar websites.
Hey I see my card!! haha that's awesome...I think you showed us some great info. Personally I don't like Vista Print...I think there stuff looks cheap. If you hire a designer and take the design to a local print show you can usually get much better quality. But I think your card looks great...you are a modern DJ in Australia and your business card tells people that...great work!!
I always think your card should echo the images on your website and in your adverts. I'm just having my website redesigned and I'll go with my new cards after that.
something i thought about would be to hold an open day, have it open to anyone that is looking to book a dj, print about 500 business cards, go through YOUR business, who you are, special requests, show off your techniqes/gear and your ability to work great with people. what you think?
i actually like that idea, double sided business card with a picture of you, but as for me i'm just starting, but i like balance and the un-normal on a card, check out my business vlog, - DJ SKIBS
I like your new card, it is very nice. The only thing I did not like was that the letter D and J are too far apart. But other than that - superb card and gives a very good first impression. And second too!
Great vid. and great idea. Im trying to design new cards myself. i never thought of using a wedding pic and thats a great idea. also i never thought of putting a pic of myself either.. nice vid..!!!
I'm a designer myself and I'm vastly impressed with the quality of that business cards. Most designers only put that kind of effort into their own advertisement pieces. Very high quality and very professional, also the picture of yourself is an amazing idea! It keeps the card tangible and person, like the person is familiar because they can see your face, and the customer gains a sense of trust from that. Definitely impressed, keep up the good work.
2nd post - John - I did not see my card in your spread :(
I think the new card is good BUT I think putting a picture of me on the card is a bad idea. What if you cannot DJ the event OR if you have to send someone else? well - there is a picture of you on the card so they expect you.
I think having a picture of the bride and groom is great - it shows clients you focus on weddings and not smaller events
John - great job and great video. first to watch and first to comment. I am awake at 3:30am when everyone else is asleep. I think your new business cards looks nice. I hope you like my card also that I gave you at MBLV 2011
