Hi all and happy Wednesday, what does the day have in store for you?

I have a meeting with my colleague in relation to promoting a new special offer of 250 full colour plastic cards for £95 plus delivery and vat, so far word of mouth has been a great advertiser for this offer but as always new business is wonderful to try and achieve.

I then have to sort out some new cards for our sample packs.

Last but not least I need to put together a quote for a University tender who would like an ongoing contract for the supply of full colour plastic cards.

Bye for now and hope you enjoy the day.

HI All,

Hi All,

We received a nice email from a customer today and thought i would share it with you:

I have received all of my cards yesterday and I have tested them all and they are all fine.

As always fantastic service and fantastic value for money.

Hope you all have a great Christmas

Many thanks

Many thanks to this customer for his kind comments

Bye for now.

Hi All,

Received an email from a customer yesterday morning regarding an order for satin black plastic cards, he was asking when the order he had placed would be delivered. I let him know today that we dispatched yesterday evening and his cards should be with him today, he sent a nice email back:

Oh dear, one of our competitors is now asking for something called “proof free artwork”.

They want you to send your artwork to them to the correct specification so it can go straight to print – basically they don’t want the hassle / can’t be bothered to look at your artwork, check that all is ok and email a proof to you to approve!

We know the turnaround time for the cards from this particular company is very long and they promise to meet deadlines that they cannot achieve just to get your money. We never do this and are very proud of this fact! – true customers don’t like to hear that we sometimes cannot meet their deadlines but I’d rather be honest than lie to them.

We email a photo-realistic proof for approval for ALL ORDERS – click here to see an example.

Also, for our full colour plastic cards (apart from the special offer) an ACTUAL PLASTIC CARD is printed from your artwork and posted to you for final approval – click here to see an example.

We also check that artwork is sent to the correct specification and if possible fix it free of charge, failing that we let you know the problems encountered.

Hi All,

A polite request, please do not order items from us if you are never in to receive delivery of them!

Its a common sense request however we have had no end of trouble recently regarding an order of frosted plastic cards.

We dispatch the order on the 12th July and after a lot of attempted deliveries by the courier they are now on there way back to us as the courier can not deliver them.

I will have to spend some time tomorrow contacting the courier to see where they are as really they should have been back with us days ago. I really hope they have not been lost.

I am very worried at the condition the cards will be in, after spending nearly a month passed between courier depot and courier van I am expecting the worse.

Fingers crossed they arrive back with us tomorrow and in a good state.

Strangely this customer knows he is hardly ever at the deliver address he provided, so why order them for delivery there!

Bye for now please have your fingers crossed.

Hi All,

I was watching Graham Norton on the TV the other night and a guest was the now named Diddy. I thought it was quite amusing when the comedian Sarah Millican (another guest on the show) was taking the mick by saying he would have to change his business cards every time he changed his name!

If you are reading this Diddy, would you like us to be your supplier?! We do a lovely range of plastic business cards.

I believe the previous names he was known by are:

Puff daddy
P Diddy
Sean John – his real name apparently

If you know of any more please let me know!

Hi All,

I’ve had a rumor that a new director of communications is required for our government, I think I will send in the post a plastic business card to see if I will be invited to send in my CV. Look at all these wonderful blogs I write, surely I must have a chance?!

What qualities do you feel out director of communications should have, erm..well perhaps a few of the following:

An ability to communicate well with all levels of people
Fine qualifications to ensure good education
What is appropriate to communicate and to who e.g imagine someone who did not know when to keep quiet and the Times getting hold of a juicy story which was meant to be kept private
Someone would can keep calm in even the most stressful situation

Ok I think I have ruled me out but I’ve still got some posh plastic business cards if anyone wants to see them?!

Hi All,

I am amazed to read about the new VW XL1, not actually sure if or when it will be available for us public to purchase but get this this car manages to achieve on just one gallon of diesel not 100 not 200 not 300 but 313 miles!

The weight of the car has been decreased by using some kind of carbon fibre, sorry I am not that techi but I’m sure a search on the old internet will provide lots more info! I believe the weight was just under 800kilos.

Apparently it can reach sixty miles per hour in just 11.9 seconds.

I wonder if this car will quality for free road tax like some of the other cars do?

Bye for now

ps if you are wondering ….. we did not get asked to print plastic card invitations for the Qatar motor show where this car was first shown! Not this time anyway, maybe next year

HI All,

Its been greatly reported in the news that the UK economy has decreased by .5% when a growth percentage was expected.

Well I’m no economist but the VAT rise is / has affected people views on spending, if the government want people to spent why increase the VAT rate!

We have encountered a small growth in the number of enquiries for plastic membership cards, I’ve probably said this on a few occasions before and will most probably say again – membership cards are a positive way to ensure a member feels valued or even better a discount card offer 5% or more off products/services valid until xxx to try and encourage cash flow.

I wish you all the very best of success in these uncertain times, if you feel any of our products will help your business please get in touch.

Bye for now
