Promotional pieces.

I have had three small promotional pieces I've done recently.

Firstly there was the traditional business card; although mine was a little funky as I used some different materials to make them out of.

Secondly, there were business cards, but business cards with different images on, 15 in all. I let people choose which one they wanted to have The cards themselves were printed on distressed paper; I've been going through a grunge period and this was part of that. I was very pleased with them and only realised later that the distressing was so effective that not everyone realised that this was intentional. A chance remark by one person made me realise that they just looked old and worn out.

The last lot of cards I handed out were A6 sized cards with large images on them. These were clean and bright and the image could be clearly seen. Everyone that I gave one to was told they had been especially printed fir that evening. I managed to hand out 30 cards that evening. The most popular were those with clearly and quickly identifiable images. Another learning point I think.
