Been few weeks since I posted this topic. Just to reiterate. Reminder cards are a must. Absolutely incredible how many calls I've had. For example did a job yesterday from a reminder card. Then a neighbour opposite came over and asked for a quote. Did the job there and then. Going back on Monday to do 2 other houses in the same street who saw me there yesterday. Its dead right, no matter how good a job you do and how well you get on with a customer they will still forget your name, let alone where they put your business card. By the way Trade Print Warehouse do some cracking reminder cards with a funny cartoon on the front and your company logo. They quoted me 2000 cards for £100. Might take them up on that when my current lot run out.

Hi chris,
Just looked on trade-print-warehouse.co.uk and can't find reminder cards. Where do I look?

Hi Dave
Your right they are not on web site. I received some leaflet examples from them and they also sent me examples of various things eg business cards and reminder cards.

Chris if you are talking about the 'woman and 2 small children postcard'the copyright for this postcard belongs to me! Tradeprint are sopposed to pay me a royalty everytime they use it.
I have no record of it being licenced for your use
IF YOU CONTINUE TO USE IT I WILL TAKE LEGAL ACTION.
please send me a P/M with your address so I can send you an invoice.
Mike
Ps only joking I won't really take legal action
but the next time you talk to Hamad or Mark remind them whose picture they are using

These are a must !
Work every time.
Better than YP or Thompsons.
Put your new services on them, remind them how good their carpets or upholstery will look or feel etc when cleanened.
2 months b4 Christmas and in spring, not like me, middle of summer cause Im too busey.
These will create many call backs and referals....guaranteed

Chris, I had a proffesional cartoon artist draw that cartoon, its actual name is 'little angels' I had some reminder cards printed by Trade Print and they said if I allowed them to use it they would give me a £10 everytime they used it.
but the little tinkers try and tell me they never use it :
but I have lunch with them once or twice a week and its amazing how many times I see it on the presses.
I should have shares In Tradeprint, half of the leaflets they print have either my pictures or statements taken off my marketing material.

You should do Mike, When I phoned them last year they said they do not need anymore work.
I hope you are getting commission if you have not got shares

Ian, they had a lot of problems last year because they got snowed under with work, they have now invested in 3 new machines that can produce 40,000 full colour leaflets an hour

If I get fed up with printing them myself on the copy printer I will contact them again.
I do get fed up with the jam ups but its probably the cheap paper I use.

Hi Guys ,
I use a local printer and in the last year I would estimate £400-£500 of work from them and their families(Jewish, good refferals).
Also nice people so a pleasure and no hassle if too busy to pick up for a couple of days.
Keep your money in your community , you never know it might come back to you!
Cheers,
Doug
