Does anyone know of a good online company that does musician's business cards, mainly piano? I found a lot of them in a Google search, but the designs are pretty "dry" and in B&W. I'm looking for an outfit that does great creative designs with lots of color. I'm not concerned about the cost, just about quality...I want to get something this time around that really stands out.

I use Vista Print for biz cards, mailing labels, etc...

Easy, attractive design interphase to use. Great prices, fast service...

Very happy with them...

Thanks guys, but I need to emphasize that I'm looking for a creative design that folks are going to notice so I'm probably looking more for a printer/designer type company. I can get cards printed anywhere, but the artistry is what's missing.

In the old days I would make up a design myself with computer graphics. Now I'm realizing there's a lot of competition out there these days, and I'd best leave the "designs" to the professionals if I want to be unique.

Again.....anyone know of any online companies that are creative with their wares?

Larry-

Did you even go to the website I posted?

My biz cards are full color, have a nice easy to read layout, plus I have background images on both sides, with text.

You can upload your logo if you wish...

Plenty of choices for finish, sheen, grade of paper, etc.

I paid $24.20 for 500 of them...

Email me your mailing address and I'll mail you one, I think you'd like it...

DITTO I also use Vista Print. They had some outstanding double sided business cards, price was right and the design is terrific. I used the templates they supply.

Raised letter & simple are still my personal choices....let your music be your calling card. If your good they will always call you.....but if you suck they wont no matter what kind of Business card you have.

Larry has gigs coming out of his ears...

He doesn't suck...

He just wants a nice business card...

Given your reasoning, and how successful you, me, Zuki, Steve, etc. are, why would we even have any?

(pause)

Because they're a traditional part of doing business in our line of work, right?

Bill chill dude I never said Lucky sucked ...don't put words in my mouth please....I was talking in general. Most BC's that I see are so cluttered with crap & difficult to decipher.....simple layouts has always been my philosophy & has always been successful for me coupled with real good solid product that the customer enjoys & will continue to come back too. Without that your done, its simple business 101.
