What do you guys and gals think about this postcard that I did up

I will print it on Blank 4 x 6 index cards

Give me your opinions and corrections that need to take place.

I want to print these and get them in the mail by Wednesday, August 8th.

Thanks for all your help

I have changed the mistake, let me know anything else

Also I am only sending them out to the host that were interested on Cookware

Those are great, did you mean to put Show after Cooking on the sentence about not being able to do a Cooking Show, they can do a Book Show?
 
Nice I like it, it's a very good idea. I may have to do something like that.
 
Teresa,

These are beautiful! What a great way to peak interest.

Please don't spend money on making or sending these if you don't plan to follow up each one with a phone call. You might get a few people to contact you but my experience (and I know at least one or two people will back me up on this) is that you are just throwing money out the window if you don't follow-up.
 
These are great! I sent out letters last week to my past cookware customers and I am going to give them a call this week to follow up.
 
I love this idea ... I think I might send it to all my past hosts!! Thanks Teresa
 
If you have a website, I would add "book/online" where you talk about catalog shows. Online shows sound a little more appealing to some folks. But your postcard looks great!
 
Teresa-great job! Thanks for sharing.
 
I think this looks so good and plan on using this revised version. Your idea and others' comments got me motivated to do something. Now, to get color printing on my machine.....THANKS!

I love these. How do you get 4 to a page? Whoops, I'm showing my computer ignorance!!
 
They are being printed on 4" x 6" index cards. You would print one at a time and they are most likely going to feed into the printer sideways. On most printers, you can adjust the guides for your paper when you have something that isn't 8.5" wide.

Perfect for a booth I'm doing this month! I'll just hand these out too. Thank you!
 
I think you did a nice job. Looks great!
 
They look great. I may use them as well.

Thank you for sharing!
 
I do the same "call me before I call you" thingy.
 
Wow, they look great!!

I'd love to use these, but we're restricted about post office usage here. We can't use it for our business.

I guess I HAVE to use the phone!!

You could pass them out at your shows - and hand them out to people you run in to throughout the day!
