Recycled Business Cards from alocalprinter.com

I have just received some beautifully printed recycled business cards from alocalprinter.com. Great communication from them and really really quick turnaround.

But here's a warning to everyone, check your spelling, check your spelling and then get somebody else to check your spelling because I now have 250 beautiful business cards that have the word 'BREATH' printed on the back, rather than the word 'BREATHE'...ooopppsss

The cards look great. real bummer about the typo!

Wouldn't be the first time that's happened to someone though.

I'm absolutely loving your website and the way you plant a tree for each project you do. I think that's something a lot of businesses would do well to take note of.

Thanks Pixels Ink, we'll be planting more next week for a new client...now all I need to do is find a toothbrush seller to take these Breath cards off my hands

I double checked my business cards but still never noticed they didn't have my email address on them.

Still they have the website on so they can get it form that but definatly had a doh! moment.

Thanks for the kind words

If the typo is a problem I'll reprint them for free - just let me know

PS - have moved this to testimonials

why dont you hang on to the incorrect ones and use them in some sort of competition. send out in a mailer and say the first 10 people who reply with the correctly identified 'error' (without giving any clues) gets a 25% discount. at least theyre not wasted!!

You could use some sort of strapline like "Seen the price of xxxxx lately - bet you can't get your breath" or "prices to take your breath away".
