[Bryn-gwlad] Baronial business cards design proof and pricing

[Ysabeau]

Okay, after sleeping and reading the messages, I took the recommendation for
Vista Print. I didn't like any of the free designs but thought this one
might work for us. It is still cheaper than the other site although I kind
of like the cartoon heavy fighter on the other one (gotta love a guy with an
ax!). I created a generic Barony of Bryn Gwlad card that anyone can hand
out. There isn't really room to write personal info unless you write on the
back on top of the map...but I included PiP info in the space where you
would normally put personal info.

Click the link above to see a proof of the design. I have a grayscale map to
PiP on the back. I think it has enough information to help anyone interested
in finding us in particular and SCA groups in general if they are from out
of town. I left off the email address because those tend to change and you
never know if a spammer will pick up the card and start spamming that
person. Emails are on the website so they can get them if they need them.

I'll wait until Emeline, Gwenneth, and Avery come back from Queen's (I'm
guessing they are there) before ordering just to make sure that we aren't
breaking any rules and for official approval.

If you can email me privately and let me know about how many cards you want,
I can get a better idea on pricing. They start at $20 (plus some extra setup
fees and shipping) for 250 and go up to $116 (including setup fees and
shipping) for 5000. 5000 seems like a lot of cards but if we are handing
them out at demos and stuff, a busy demo could use up 200 cards easily and
you can't really beat the price if we divide it up between 6-10 people. I
can cover the cost until they come in.

Also, there is an option to get the front of the cards on refrigerator
magnets. They start at $10 for 25, 50 for $15, etc. If you are interested in
some of those, let me know. They might be good to give some of the more
promising candidates at demos or to put on refrigerators at work/dorms. I
can be at PiP around 8:15ish to collect fundage for these if you want them.

In service,
Ysabeau
