You don't really need a catch phrase since you already have a unique enough name and symbol for people to recognize. You could expand on the three things you have listed into at least seven. More if you soften the graphic under the lettering and continue your list right down to the web address. I think that would be far more effective. Speaking from a layout and design point of view. You don't want to be cluttered, but you're not really in a line of business where three words say it all either. So, you have to find a balance. Can you print double sided? What about leaving the WP signature on the front and include what you offer to the right but move all the contact info to the back. Except maybe the web address or perhaps even that too. Just an idea. I don't know if it's possible or not.

Either way, I like the card. If you're on my way home, I was going to try to stop in and say hi. I haven't mapquested it yet though. I'm driving from DC to Michigan and I know I go through Ohio.

Anyway, nice card.

im in northern ohio which way are you coming. i can print double sided but the cost is much more than i would like to pay. the problem with printing what companys we offer is that its most likely going to change and i dont have all of the brands in concrete but i want to get my name out asap. does that make sense? also if you stop up here stop and see ryan!

i still need to stop and say hi to you guys. im usually driving between detroit to northeast ohio about every other week. i just take 75 to the turnpike (80) all the way to youngstown. how far are you and ryan from the turnpike?

I'm from the U.P. and go through Wisconsin since my mom lives in Oshkosh. My dad is in Pembine Wisconsin, up past Green Bay and the area I like to visit most while I'm up that way is the U.P. Anyway, I'll squeeze in any visits I can.

Reguarding the info on the card, do you do just do regular installs or can you do custom work too? Do you do fiberglass work? Are you associated with any sanctioning bodies? Do you offer any type of system critiquing, advanced system set-up, SPL/SQ measurments, advanced audio diagnostics, etc?

And of course include any name brands worth mentioning if you know what they'll be.

the brands are up for question. im in the process of finding an outsorce for my fiberglass work as i have done it once and it wasnt so good i just dont have the patience. im a member of meca db drag and bass race. i have a termlab spl meter that i can test on. no system for dignostics other than my brain lol. for the most part i was trying to keep it simple i will add these and see how they look. i like the idea i just dont want it to look cluterd and unprofesional u know what i mean?

for sure. You know what will work best in your area. I think it's probably client specific. Where I'm from in Michigan I'd create an entirely different card than what I would for the DC area. Different competition, different breed of people, etc.

what if i added something like this serving the begginer in car audio or the audiphile?

the audiphile or should i say the self proclaimed audiophile might not be what your looking to deal with. there are alot of stupid people who think they know really good sound but they have stupid ears. i would just deal with the bumping in the trunk kind of crowd they are alot easier to please and its alot easier to convince them that what their friends told them is wrong.

well i need something to show that we carry the high quailty brands and the brands for the less furtunate lol

I suggest building a sq system and an spl in your blazer. It is possible...just need a relay or even an epicenter to keep the bass from hitting. That way you can please both. Audiophiles are few and far between. The ones to look for are those who listen with an ear up the speaker and tell you that it images well...those guys are not audiophiles. If you stand between the two speakers, about 10 ft away and listen intently, then I would say you are looking at an SQ person...if they bring their own Telarc cd to listen to...they are borderline audiophiles. If they already know what they want, know what kind of sound they want to reproduce, use words like dispersion and supple, then they are most likely audiophiles. At our shop, there are two kinds of cars to show two kinds of people. My car for the audiophiles and Sq guys, and the shop mustang for the SPL dudes.
