Do you think this will work? ads on back of business cards

I am about to go out of my bloody mind!

I can't believe the amount of people who come to this post and then reply something that is completely irrelevant.

Can I repeat myself one more time?

I NEVER ASKED IF YOU THOUGHT ADS ON THE BACK OF YOUR BUSINESS CARDS IS A GOOD IDEA!!!!

I asked if you think YOUR ADS on the back of SOMEONE ELSE'S CARDS is a good idea!!!!

 

Can this guy not read???

 

Both ideas of having your ADs on the back of your own or someone else's business cards is not that best idea. Like everyone else said, it's looks cheap and unprofessional. Plus, why would you want to have your ADs on someone else's cards anyway? I don't think people would take a business card and look to see if there's any ADs on it...

Bottom line, I wouldn't do it.

 

Not a good idea. You may not want it to look like certain companies are referring you, supporting you, etc. Conversely, you don't want to make it look like you support another business unless you're intimately involved with it (like constantly referring customers back and forth). On both sides, it would take too much time and effort to monitor the image of the other company / companies you're associating yourself with. Very basic PR problem there.

 

No, you only look cheap and unprofessional if someone's ads is on YOUR business card, but if your ads on SOMEONE ELSE'S business card, you is just advertising. The idea is not bad, I think he can find advertisers, but the problem he would face is actually finding people/customers who would want to pass a potential client their business card that has a "Burger King" ad on the back. lol

 

not a great idea

 

I would definately use the advertising service if the price and positioning was reasonable.
