Default Cheap hang tags (business cards) ... ?

G'day,

Just wondering if anyone here knows a good (and cheap) place to get business cards printed, to use as hang tags for tees.

I want them printed in black-and-white on an uncoated stock (something with the same feel as good quality drawing paper, but thicker), but I've found that most places only offer gloss/matt.

Any suggestions will be appreciated ...

try GotPrint: Full Color Glossy Business Cards i have yet to see better prices.

also, you might want to use grommets on your tags to give them a different look.

after you buy from vista print, how do you drill the holes in the cards? They wont do it.

You can buy a hole puncher at any office supply store. Or invade your friend or wife's scrapbooking corner for cool tools that cut rounded corners, or add metal grommets for that industrial look.

Hang tags seem like a really cool idea but I think they would be a waste of money for me. Because I sell my shirts online and ship them to people, everyone will get their shirt, throw away the tag, and go on with their life.

Step back a second there - just from your name, I'm guessing you're attempting to create a memorable brand? All interactions you have with the customer should include them thinking of your brand. Including the hassle of removing something almost useless.

Hang tags are cheap. Pennies to have your name handled just for that one extra time. Think of Aflack. The more times you can even hammer just your name into a potential repeat customer - do it!

You're a creative guy, make a creative hang tag - something one in ten people might keep, just cause it's cool.

Instead of business cards, spend a little bit more and have bookmarks made and use them as hang tags. A lot more folks will keep them, and will see them whenever they read a book.

Cheers,
David

I have to disagree. I haven't started my business yet so I can't say much from that point of view, but seeing it in a customers point of view, the shirts and the company look more professional to me. I know on another thread someone had mentioned having stickers made and using it as hangtag as well. That way the customer can take off the hangtag and use the sticker.
