Giveaway: Diecut Business Cards from UPrinting

Just in time for Halloween, this is no trick… I have a treat for my readers: My first official giveaway! UPrinting.com is offering one of my readers 250 Die Cut Business Cards.

We all know the importance of having a business card when we meet a new professional contact. They are an excellent networking tool, and your business cards say a lot about you as a professional. Just like you never get a second chance at a first impression, your business card is the representation of you that your new contact will physically hold long after you’ve met in person.

UPrinting wants to step in and help you leave a positive lasting impression. UPrinting is an online printing company that offers all sorts of different print products. One of their many products is business cards — including custom business cards.

So without any further adieu here are all the details of the giveaway:

Or just say, “PICK ME!” (Even though that really won’t help your chances of winning… but it’ll make me giggle.) The contest will end on November 7th, and a commenter will be chosen at random to win. Please be sure to include your email address when you comment so I can contact you about winning! I will need both your name and email address to win, incomplete details will disqualify a winner from receiving the prize, and winners are only allowed to win once over a six-month period.
