Default Creating Business cards.

Hi everyone, thanks for the replies to my recent questions they were very helpful. Looking to get my business off the ground early next year but could do with a little advice on how you would create business cards for clients. Can you buy a printer specifically for business card printing where the cards are pre-cut or do you always have to cut them up yourself, I would imagine that being quite alot of work if you were having to produce thousands of cards for clients. Any advice?

You design them - get someone else to print and cut them

See a business card printers. It's just not cost effective or efficient enough for you to bother with.

you can buy templates that allow you to print onto a4 sheets, and then the cards just pop out. They are great for quick and easy business cards, but the quality of the cards is a little dubious on the ones I saw (a dodgy yellow lined thing). I'd suggest a real printers. Better quality, volume, repeat printing, effects etc......
