Saving and printing

Monday, May 12th, 2008

Belated happy Mother’s Day!  Hopefully everyone had a good day! 

Now, onto another Top 10 website…

Many moms today have (or are trying to start) home businesses.  This requires some start up cash and advertising as well as a business plan!

 So how do you get the word out there about your business?  Well, business cards are a great start!  Then you have coordinating stationery, calendars, magnets, etc.  But this stuff gets very expensive very fast and if you want to design your own logo, well, forget it–that’s out of our league, right?

 Wrong.  Head over to www.vistaprint.com.  Here you can print pretty much anything you want (from stationery to folders to pens to T-shirts) at great prices.  And you get their stuff fast even if you order their standard shipping service.  And the quality is very good–you wouldn’t know you were getting your items from a discount online printing service.

They have a huge selection of templates…or you can create your own.  It’s easy to edit since you do it yourself–which I find is much simpler than going back and forth with a printing company to correct problems.  And if you want a custom logo, they will work with you on that as well!  You can even upload photos pretty easily.  They also do rubber stamps, invites, holiday cards, you name it. 

The only downside is that when you check out they offer you tons of different add-on items, but it is simple to say “no thanks”.

The best part of all…access them through www.ebates.com (discussed in the previous post) and you will not only get special coupon savings, you will also receive 10% cash back on your purchases!  How’s that for a good deal?
