VistaPrint


I know nothing about the company -- other than my own experience and the recommendation of a multi-published author -- but so far my experience has been good. My friend, the author, has been a great help in answering the question "What do you do now that you're published?"

Simply put, her response was "Sell your book!"

One part of her advice including VistaPrint. She buys postcards (self-designed) from VistaPrint with duplicate images on the front. She then has them cut in half to serve as hand-outs -- that is, personalized bookmarks.

The prices are relatively economical. VistaPrint includes some freebies. And the service seems excellent -- I ordered on Monday, and the postcards (and 250 business cards) were in my mailbox this morning.

I have to admit, they do have a good niche on the free market. However, the quality of the cards are not always great, they take a month or longer to deliver, and they charge triple or quadruple the shipping costs than other print companies.

For superior quality Pocket Folders or Premium Business Cards i recommend visiting XpressPrint-Online.com. They offer one of the best prices on the internet and offer the ability to print just about anything you can design.

The old saying goes "nothing is free". Anyway, you could at least give them a shot.
