i went to the local cruise lastnight and there were about five or six modified saxo's. i wanted to approach them and mention sax-p but i needed some kind of flyes to back me up. d'oh!

SaxoAL · 22nd March 2005, 00:46

just go up to them.. thats what I always do hehe

Saxonator · 22nd March 2005, 01:26

I like the idea of having flyers as i work in a catering trailer, i see lots of peeps with modded Sax's (buying from me) I do give the site a mention but like Damo, having something just to back it up and to make it sound like its actually worth going onto the site and were seriouse about it

Guys,

I will be going to seem my printer on Tuesday if I can finish the stuff Im working on in time.

I plan to enquire about the flyer prices at the same time.

However... I was wondering. Would we not be better with a business card style thing? These would be more convenient to carry (in your wallet) and could be kept simple, as theres not enough space to flood it with details?

What do you think - flyer or business card?

I would incorporate a space for your membership ID or something so if the memebr later joined up this could act in your favour in some way... like a referrers scheme.

never thought of a business card, actually prefer that idea altogether, more classy, cheaper and easier to carry

dannsax · 28th March 2005, 00:15

sound's like a winner to me , i quite like the sound of

it . pherhap's we could take the end design to a local

printer , at our cost to then give out ?

SaxoAL · 28th March 2005, 00:43

I prefer the idea of business cards aswell, as we would be able to carry them about, put a pile in glovebox aswell.
I also find that whenever someone hands me a flyer I tend not to read it and either throw it, or fold it up and forget about it in my pocket.
But, whereas with a little card, peope can keep hold of this (in their wallet for example) and gain all the info needed from reading the limited text from the car.

I think that a great idea that will definitely provide some well earned advertisement for the site.

i also agree the business card does sound a better idea plus they'd be cheaper to print than a flyer! also i would be more than happy to distribute them for the site.

GreenSaxo · 28th March 2005, 01:24

i erm.. work at a commercial printers.. could speak to my boss about a "special" deal

business cards are 55x85mm (approx) would need to be on card (bit more expensive) to be effective..

or maybe a 99x210mm flyer (1/3A4 size) could be an idea..wouldnt need to be printed on card.. so maybe cheaper unit cost.. although bigger..

how many would we be looking at/how much to spend on it?

oz_borne^p · 30th March 2005, 00:46

any idea on price yet mr boss man?

DevilDamo · 30th March 2005, 04:25

im glad to see that this idea has developed a lot lot further and i am also for the 'business card' approach.

again, i would have loved to have had these 'business cards' for the 'burning bournemouth' show as there were many, many saxos.

lets get it priced people

Simo^p · 30th March 2005, 04:39

Its already priced and is going ahead, as mentioned in the magazine thread... designs just need to be decided.

alex19 · 30th March 2005, 19:38

had a little bash on photoshop with this business card idea... obvouisly your not going to use this but i thought i might give a little thing to show...

for some reason the second one is smaller....

G_man_GT · 31st March 2005, 01:29

like the idea

, you could have like a flashy saxo pic (top left one above) on one side with the web addy, and then all the details on the other side

alex19 · 31st March 2005, 03:17

yup... been talking to mark about it! he sed to mention the moderators... dnt think there's enought room to fit all of them on and leaving some of isnt fair.. so i got...

what else? i think someone could do it in some sort of kool writing for us... i duno how to do all the fonts...

i think this would be best.... this for the front...

and

for the back with the writing in the bottom left hand corner....

G_man_GT · 31st March 2005, 03:26

that ones def the best one for the front of it

alex19 · 31st March 2005, 03:39

yup... could do with doing it again but with bigger www.saxperience.com sticker so it doesnt look so blurred.... does anyone know what font the sax-p background bit is in? i've got it saved on me comp but dont know it to do different letters etc...

i thought that one was the best out of them all... anythin i could do for the back? just name it and i'll try!

G_man_GT · 31st March 2005, 04:03

I'm thinking the back needs to be quite simple, not as busy as the front i would have thought, cos you've got to be able to see the writing thats on top of it, so anything to detailed and people wont see it, just a thought tho

alex19 · 31st March 2005, 04:08

yup... need to be simple so people dnt need to squint to read it... it needs to also be appealing so people actaully look at it....

GreenSaxo · 31st March 2005, 04:31

i like that image...
