I was hoping that some of you would be able to recommend a place to have business cards printed inside of Canada. I was all excited about Overnight Prints and did up a bunch of different designs. I had finally settled on one design and was going to order 25 of the double sided value cards (about $4 USD) until I saw it was going to cost $16 USD to ship $4 worth of cards. So, now I'm looking for a place in Canada.

So, if you've got any recommendations, let me have them.

Thanks!

    Check into Vistaprint as well as MOO business cards. Those are two off the top of my head that I am pretty sure aren't going to charge you a ton for shipping.

    I get my cards printed from a company named Boss Logos I believe in Canada. They do great inexpensive work.

    I use MOO. They're based in the UK with an outlet in the USA but their shipping etc. is quite reasonable.

    That's assuming you want photo(s) in your cards. If you're going for a straight info. card, any local printer should be able to do a decent job.

    I'm in the boonies in New Brunswick, by the way.

    Kyle,

    I order from different places with good results. Vista Print, 123 print, and recently overnight prints. They all work great. But, one thing I can say is 25 cards won't do you a whole lot of good. An old-timer business man told me years ago, "If you aren't going through 1,000 cards a year, you're not doing your job." I put a card into every envelope that contains an invoice for my services. I encourage people to spread the word. I make a new friend somewhere, give them a couple cards, and tell them what I do. And my grandpa, who was a success in business said, always give a smile to everyone.

    So bite the bullet and go for a thousand cards this year! And good luck!
