There is no need, in what he wants to do, to spend any money on
printing
as
you have a computer. I do have Business Cards, BUT, that is because the
company I arrange the reunions with 'is' a big business and where I am
'representing them' as opposed to it being my business, then the
'Corporate
Image' follows through. For you, a computer leaflet will do.

Only from a laser printer. Inkjet printed business cards/ leaflets
quickly fade, run when wet, and generally become indecipherable.

Yesterday I decided to get a carpet shampooed and got down a relevant
small
business flier from my noticeboard, to find I could no longer read the
phone number. And it was only a few months old: sun on the noticeboard
had
done for it.

I'm guessing a card belonging to a gardener might sometimes need a certain
damp-resistance too: even sweaty fingers will smudge an inkjet print.


Susceptibility to damp is relatively easily fixed by laminating the cards,
which also makes them much more durable.
