why letterpress business cards?

Apart from wedding invitations, custom business cards are the most popular thing we sell. But for every ecstatic inquiry ready to get started right away, there are those who are quite surprised and try to haggle the pricing.

And it's okay, I get it. When you hear you can get 2,000 business cards through vistaprint for $40 bucks (or is that just on my pandora?) then hear letterpress pricing it can be a shock. However, I don't think comparing the price of custom letterpress business cards to cheap digital ones is a good way to see the value you're getting. Digital business cards are good - they get the job done, but letterpress business cards are an investment that can lead to future jobs.

Just like the way you dress and your manners, your business cards communicate for you. Do you want your cards to say you are cheap and generic? Letterpress cards communicate attention to detail, a unique aesthetic (which can be especially important in creative fields such as photography, wedding coordinators, interior designers, graphic artists, etc) and that the highest level of quality goes into your work. While ordinary cards will likely get tossed, letterpress cards are something special to be held onto.
