“an online order that exceeds my expectations”

Nevi­lle Hob­son in Holland wrote a very kind review of Blog­cards:

An online order that exceeds my expec­ta­tions
A small thing, but it’s good to feel very satis­fied with something you order online and when it arri­ves, it exceeds your expec­ta­tions.
I’m not tal­king about Ama­zon, which always meets my expec­ta­tions. I’m tal­king about my new gaping­void busi­ness cards which arri­ved in the post this mor­ning.
Good qua­lity card stock, good prin­ting, cards in a robust plas­tic con­tai­ner, all secu­rely pac­ka­ged. Not only that, I recei­ved my cards within 10 days of orde­ring them, with Christ­mas in bet­ween and ship­ping from the UK to me here in Ams­ter­dam. Impres­sive ser­vice.
With the pac­kage was a nice little card from Street­cards, the com­pany who pro­du­ces these cards with one of Hugh McLeod’s car­toons on the back, saying “We hope you will be plea­sed with your cards.”
Yes, I am! And, if you want some rather unu­sual busi­ness cards, I have no hesi­ta­tion in recom­men­ding this service.

Awwww.…
Thanks, Nev =)

For new­bies to my site, Blog­cards are per­so­na­li­zed biz­cards with one of my car­toons prin­ted on one side, and your per­so­nal details prin­ted on the other. They’re desig­ned to be a bit more fun and anarchic than a regu­lar busi­ness card. They’re very good for han­ding out at infor­mal pla­ces like bars, par­ties, blog con­fabs etc.
They sell pretty well (Thanks, Guys!), though not enough to make me quit the day job.
I dunno. They just kinda are what they are.

  1. You’re wel­come, Hugh.
    I have the Eric car­toon on my cards. Like Eric, I don’t need a lot to be happy. Just enough to pay the rent, have a beer and get exci­ted when my cards arrive.
    I guess all that does make me a deran­ged luna­tic ;)
    Cool cartoon!

  2. I like them a lot… can you do them in French? Will it cost more because we’re so obno­xious? Do you offer a ‘melange’ pac­kage?
    You’ll go far with this ven­ture.… I can offer you a French dis­tri­bu­torship real cheap. Interested?
