ghost Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 I ordered a bunch of spinner clam shells and they arrived today. What do you guys use for the product card inside the package? Thought about just printing something off the computer with some glossy paper but would like something a little more professional looking. Are there any companies that will mass print in small quantities? Say like 500 or less? I do not need 10,000 product cards for the 50 or so spinner and jigs I have ready for racks.

haybay larry Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 Just about any copy shop should be able to print those for you. Staples or any other such store are reasonably priced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghost Posted May 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 I read a post somewhere else where someone was using address labels. I think that would work for my jigs, but for spinners in clam shells I need something more. Will check with Staples, thanks for the tip.

tater Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 what i do is use glossy card stock and a photo printer so i can customize the package for clients who buy lures for birthday gifts, ect... i also send each of my clients a free lure on their birthday with a birthday message. its pretty cheap to do, and it adds a personal touch they cant get from a manufacturing plant.

ghost Posted May 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 If I don't like what staples tells me that is probably what I will do to. My main goal is to be very cost effective, but at the same time look presentable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCCustom Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 I went to Kenkos and had them print out my logo on card stock and then cut them out it wasn't too bad 48.00 plus the cost of the paper. Here is how it turned out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TCCustom Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 If you don't need that many you might want to just buy the card stock and print them yourself as you need them. But if you are going to print many, buy the time you buy ink it will cost you more in the long run. I just got some ink for my Canon printer at home and believe it was around a 100. Of course most of this was for color ink. TCCustom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghost Posted May 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 yeah my Brother printer takes four cartridges and it runs me about $120 for ink. Plus I have to deal with the wife yelling that I used all the ink. I printed all my business cards and sticky labels at work. I would print my own but I can't seem to figure out how to get Microsoft word to print upside down for the back of the package? Any ideas?

TCCustom Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 when you draw up the logo just do the back upside down. My lable was done that way. just like it is printed out there. A guy named Mike made my lable and card. He is really good and charged me 150 for it. If you would like I can get you his email and see what he can do for you.

ghost Posted May 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 Thanks TC. But not ready to pay $150 to just flip some text upside down. If I can't figure it out I will email Microsoft and see if they can explain how to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
