Fashion brings out whatever emotion you are feeling inside. Whatever you are feeling, have fun with it and remember not to take yourself so serious. Don't let someone predict who you are!

I am actively seeking employment and realize how important it is to come up with a different angle so that you have an edge and will stand out in a crowd. I believe that having a unique, unusual business card would help someone remember me from the hundreds applying for the same job I am. I don't know what kind of design I would use, but an unusual size or some kind of art deco would be fantastic. What a cool contest!

Just 4 days after that I'll be moving to a brand new town with no known contacts. New snazzy business cards would be a great help in putting my self out there. Especially cards that are different and stand out. The moving process is expensive and so are bad ass business cards, free awesome business cards would be a big help.

Tue, 26 Aug 2008 21:29:53 +0000 http://designfeedr.com/?p=881#comment-1597 For the past five years I've been working a desk job that's only tangentially related to design, and my web development portfolio is so obviously circa 1999-2003 that it's embarrassing. I need something that will leave people with a <em>good</em> impression of my capabilities. I'm also an introvert with incredibly low self-esteem. I convince myself (before ever talking to a potential client) that nobody would want to hire me. I suck at talking to people on the phone, so my only chance to drum up business is to talk to potential clients in-person. Snazzy business cards would give me the huge confidence boost I need to even <em>try</em> to get my foot in the door. I'd buy them myself, but I talked my wife into agreeing to spend our economic stimulus check on a 24" iMac for me, and she's not going along with any more purchases until I get some business. I want design clients, but not if it means she'll make me sleep on the couch for the next two months.

My name is Amy. I work for a company as a web designer and I also work freelance. I just backed into my neighbour's car and I cannot afford business cards to promote myself. I also do a lot of work for non-profits and whatnot so sometimes what I make is not very much. I like to be able to help others with my work. I have a diploma in Multimedia Production and Design, a Diploma of Web Development, and my Web Designer's certification... so these cards will NOT be wasted! I would be so very grateful.
