TJ asked:


I am starting a wedding planning business and working on my business cards. Are there any thoughts on using glossy coated or uncoated business cards? I have a friend who used coated and I can’t use pencil to write on it but I can use pen (in case the clients need to write something or I do).

Thanks for your input!

For now i run and manage rock concerts where i live and i also make customized shirts for people using special printers, but i love doing business, but does anyone here have some ideas that i could work with?
For example, think of yourself, what you want or need or what would be fun for you.

(I live in a small city (about 200 000 people) so any idea is probably good because not many people here do things like this)
