BUSINESS CARDS
Not that we get very "business-like" 'round here, but having a little business card piece of paper with the url name of the forum already printed on it is pretty helpful when you are at a Blind Melon show.

Download the 2-page PDF here (Right-Click, Save-As):

You can look for a variety of paper at your local office supply store. You can sometimes find just plain card stock that will run through a regular deskjet printer. You can also find perforated/scored card stock, like Meredith used. . .
Ive printed out tons of business type cards to hand out at shows. I spent 6 dollars at walmart and got some business kit from Avery with 150 cards. www.avery.com
Here is how the cards turned out.

RADIO
One way to support Blind Melon is simply requesting radio stations to play their songs.
Here is a handy little internet site that helps you find radio stations based on location.

To say thank you for spreading the melon love I am willing to offer 10 Karma points to members per link advertising the forum, Blind Melon, or Eye and Mind Designs. Just send me a PM showing me where you linked the forum, the Blind Melon Myspace page, or Nel's jewelry site. The link has to be somewhere else besides this forum. Also if you show me a picture of printed flyers or business cards promoting these things I will also give you 10 Karma points.

LdyAbsnth has shared this graphic with us. You can print these out and use them as lighter wraps.
Quote:hey there, i made some lighters to pass out at my next show and thought i'd share the template in case anyone else wanted to do the same...to pass out or just to have an awesome lighter for themselves
anyhow, they're very easy to make and inexpensive (just $2.50/dozen at dollar general cheap-o lighters and a single sheet of self-adhesive design paper). lighters last longer than flyers, plus they get passed around, stolen, etc. so the word gets out to more people |
