You can use one of their pre-designed templates, start with a blank template, or upload your own image. I chose to create and upload my own image. I used the Picasa collage tool to create my image. The most important thing is to create collage dimensions that match the magnet size. I already had all of the images that I wanted to use and simply had to re-crop one or two of them to fit this layout. I've been using turquoise and red for a lot of my new promo materials, which is why I settled on this color scheme.
The ordering process was very straight forward. The only thing that was confusing about this entire process was the shipping. Signazon prints their magnets at a separate facility, which involves two separate shipments. For some reason the company sends customers a tracking number for the first shipment. I was worried when the tracking information had my package heading for Texas. It turns out that's simply where the magnets were printed. I think that the web site had tracking information for the second shipment to my home, but I never got a separate e-mail when the magnets left the Texas facility. They still arrived in the specified time frame without any problems.
Aside from the shipping, I was happy with the purchasing process and am happy with the magnets. My image was printed beautifully. The magnets are a competitive price and quantity with similar online offerings. I have wanted magnets for quite a while and am excited to start using them now.
In addition to vinyl banners and magnetic business cards, Signazon offers a wide variety of printing services including yard signs, car magnet signs, and A frame signs.

There was a lot of interest in my sangria recipe that I featured here earlier this month. It's up and running right here:

The cards look great. I just print out my business cards on my printer. As a vintage seller, I'm not as likely to have repeat business as others.
ReplyDeleteThese look great! Very nicely printed and I love your design!
ReplyDeleteFrom a customer's point of view I love the magnetic business cards - Actually I like to have both - paper and magnetic. In our old house the side of my fridge was covered in magnets from all the companies we used on a regular basis. In our new place we have collected just one so far - for the local pizza place.
ReplyDeleteNo, I just have regular 'ol business cards. Yours look great!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the Sangria recipe :)
The cards look great! I've used magnetic cards at the tax office, but I use "regular" card stock ones for my Etsy shop. I need to get new ones made to match my new logo.
ReplyDeleteHmn...that's a great idea for a different kind of advertising product. Love it!
ReplyDeleteMy mom used to keep magnetic business cards on the fridge. It can be a great promotional tool especially when they have fun things to look at like yours.
ReplyDelete(Yessssss, sangria!)
ReplyDeleteI have magnetic business cards, but I got mine from Vistaprint during one of their sales. I don't know if you've ever purchased from them, but I've been happy with their products. All I did was upload the same old .pdf I use for my regular cards.
Those turned out great! We only have the vet's magnetic business card on the fridge but if one looked as nice as yours I'd certainly put it up too! Do you put your FB address on cards? I just printed some new cards out yesterday and added it but wondered if maybe I shouldn't have.
ReplyDeletethe cards are great! I love large flat magnets like that - they hold a lot of weight and are very attractive. And made in the good 'ol USA. If I was doing shows, I would definitely get some to use. Good for advertising and free gifts! {:-D
ReplyDeleteThe magnetic cards will be useful, I think, if buyers look at your items at a craft show but aren't ready to buy at that point. But the magnetic business card that they can put up on their fridge will remind them that they want to visit your Etsy shop. Great review!
ReplyDeleteThey look great! I make my own art magnets to send with each order - but they're about a third of that size to cut down on material costs.
ReplyDeleteThey are looking very great!

It never occurred to me to magnetize my cards, but I think it's an awesome idea. Great post!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I think people really like these and they keep them a lot longer than paper business cards.
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful concept thanks!
