    I actually just ordered some business cards myself. I am really looking forward to them arriving and when they do I’ll make a post about them as well.

    Thanks Carlie :)

    Some other uses of the flip side of the business card:

    * discount coupon
    * calendar
    * map
    * loyalty card (where you can stamp 5 boxes and they can then redeem that business card for a 6th unit of your product for free)
