Business Card CD Flap

Posted: Wednesday, 01/15/2003 -- by Lamar Morgan. Subject: Business Card CD Flap

It seems that business card CD's are somewhat controversial. The Internet is full of websites that promote their design and replication. Yet, I also get feedback here that they are an accident waiting to happen. By the way, my pastor was able to get the business card CD I gave him out of his Apple laptop. In fact, I put it into my PC and it worked fine.

I am getting feedback now from folks I have actually seen on TV who are interested in putting CD media to work for them as a marketing tool. I am not really so hesitatant to show them samples of my work as I am to suggest they take advantage of business card CD's. On the one hand, I do not want to shoot myself in the foot by turning away an interested party. On the other hand, I don't want to encourage investment in something which might do a person harm - like jam up their prospect's CD ROM drive. Is it likely people who express interest in business card CD's could be persuaded to use regular or minature CD's instead? The whole point of a business card CD is its utility - carry it with you in a wallet, hand it out, showcase your business & services multimedia-style by simply slipping it into a computer CD-ROM drive.

I am also in a quandry about providing any kind of a price sheet. I still have not been able to determine how one should make such determinations. I have visited a lot of CD design websites. None of them have price sheets. Instead, they provide a form for people to fill out. I have filled out some of them and received quotes. But, that still has not allowed me to determine costs for specific services rendered. If anyone could tell me of a website I might visit which could enable me to make such determinations, I would be extremely grateful.
