weld
hi everyone
welcome back to and eighty so if you watched my editorial calendar series you Business Card Tips - How To Make Your Business Cards More Effective !!! know
in October we're doing tricks and treats to help your business
and put a link to that series in the description bar down below
but today we're talking about business card and
affect your business cards right here for two of my business is
first that i'm gonna share is
use small side are your business card
discount color printing I get a lot of business cards where it
hi Jay on beautiful hey last
us but it's just written in the front all the information in the front and
nothing in the back black and I financially such a huge
way space nowadays there's more information that we need to include in
ever before because
not only do we need to include our regular contact information
but we need to include how people can reach us on our social
media net
so by using both sides other card
were able to do just that so I'll always remember to include
your name your company name your
email and your phone if you do business via fax and you need people to know that
number
include got and if you have a storefront on
office our PO Box will you accept mail make sure to include that as well
making easy for the people looking at your card
to find you but like I said these days we also need to include
our social media haha son my car to a particular
I have how you can find me on my YouTube channel
my website Facebook LinkedIn and Twitter
the next even gonna share
is one thing I learned a workshop a few years ago
on how to create me perfect business card and I don't have
hi that if on my cart but
what it was if you use glossy paper
like mine right here you might want to consider
not using it in the back and then including
ask where with the word notes over it
so that while you're talking to someone you can write down
what it was that they wanted to contact you about
in the notes before you hand it to them or it gives them the opportunity to
write down notes about your conversation
and I when they go home at the end to the night after networking function
where they've got thirty forty fifty to sixty business cards to look at
they can remember what it is that they wanted to talk to you about
the next it also came from that workshop and it was to include
a photo of yourself on your business card
now I how the the real estate industry
down that pretty prevalent Lee and I think it's a great idea
I don't see too many other industries incorporate that into their business
cards but I think it's another great way to make a connection with the person
looking at your cart
again most the time when you're handing out your car you doing it because you
had a conversation with somebody
we've been at a networking function and
now not only do they have all your information I am
and notes that they role I want from your conversation
but they have a picture to help them remember whole day spoke to
a lot of time even with the best intentions we get home from our
networking function
and we don't immediately input all the contact that we met that night
and synthetic it takes weeks such as it could take months
and if you don't remember when you pick up the car
what it was that you talk to that person about just thinkin
how we can happen happened to me I should happen to you
you end up dumping that card but they have something to cheer their memory
like a photo
or no on their conversation they're more likely to make that connection with you
keep that connection with you
and then contact you the next
I'm going to share is cleave
leave jet your business card
professionally printed I and all that OfficeMax and Office Depot they sell
baskets where you can print it out on your home printer
and are your office printer and then punch it out but
in today's world there's so much competition
and your competitor has their hearts print it out
on homemade cards but yours is professionally
printed on beautiful paper and its attractive to the eye
then you've already got in Ange over your competitor
with out them even having read one word on your card
and I will share this
years ago IIT panel
for the wedding industry and in the audience last
photographers videographers I'll wedding planners
even magazine and I Brianna panel are Brian
and we did a Q&A and one other question after the bride
one how the Percy the marketing that worth
sent to and hands down
all across the board every single one of them
shared without any shame anything
BC 8 business card a postcard sorry for sure
in the mail or in person handed to them
that was printed on a home computer
that day simply toasted right into the garbage
and never even looked at it and it broke my heart when I looked into the audience
because I knew that many people in the audience
did just back arm
but that was then and this is now nowadays we have access to so many
different axes prisoners
online on the corner weekend
Google and research just the right printer for us
at just the right price point for us and they even
share %uh templates and tips on how to
maximize your business cards just how I'm doing here
so again I cannot stress this enough please get your business cards
professionally printed okay the next act
is to keep it simple if you're doing it yourself
most people have our professional graphic artist
tend to include every last bit information
on their car del out there email address
but boy will include every single last bit of information about their company
almost as if to make this a walking website which is not
the purpose for this little teeny tiny little piece of collateral
I'm so make sure you include just the basics
make the design simple make it attractive to the eye
and you can do so by using both sides here able to include
local your company name are your contact info
even I'll what you do our your website
your social media platforms like I did hear and
still have lots of office space so that people look at it
it is a jungle jumbled mess and promise you that they're just gonna
tacit and not look at it just as if it was done
at home on your printer and a lot
that I'm going to share with you is make sure that the car can be
what you do many times our company name
doesn't tell the movie the reader our card
what it is that we do for instance my company right here
and JC corporate enterprises for you and ATV
the channel are it doesn't tell you what I do
so unless your website conveys it super easy
like God cheap shoes dot com if your website
go with the name just like and AC corporate enterprises
or if your company is named after your family name our initial descent
you're really shocking I know what you do so make sure that you have
someone card even if it's one sentence
I am about what it is that you do so here on this card as you can see it

How to design a business card using AdobeВ® InDesignВ® CS6 !!!

hello and welcome to my life first
screencast in now my series on using Adobe InDesign
today we're going to be doing is using InDesign version cs How to design a business card using AdobeВ® InDesignВ® CS6 !!! we will be creating a business card and not only are we going to you
use InDesign to you know do some actual
design work we will hop into bowls
Adobe Photoshop cs6 Adobe Illustrator cs
to explore some other concepts that we need to understand
to create not only a beautiful design but a design that will print well when
we bring it to the printers
best print service so for example yes I go into in designing golf
filed so create a new document keyboard shortcut
command on the back or control and on PC
GE a
new document dialog box that we have InDesign
a in design lets you create rigs and Paul
a a document with the intent as treating it
sending it to the web or digital publishing so business cards being
printed
matter we will choose Print one page only
and the page size in now
in design we have a whole bunch of different standards
size is sold letter Z half by eleven
legal is


tabloid is
you have European sizes you have half sizes you have compact
disc
but we also have a traditional US size business card
so the business card is fine we have
the a option love choosing portrait mode which would be to cart standing up
or landscape mode which is like damn
columns are a a very useful saying in design in general when we have
a fair amount of space to use structure considering that a business cards for
small will go ahead
only use one column but we will change the default march in size from

what now notice that we have the Lord chain
icon depressed over here its way it's dark and if I tab
out as the top box automatically
all the values will be changed to the value that I changed manually
that's what the a chain does it makes all the settings
same now because we are going to be sending this to the printers it's
important to click the
more options bach here and
take a look at the bleed and slug now
slug is not something that will you know be very important for us
it's an extra area where
people can include information for the printer the
very few applications actually let you define
the area for the slug and people who have been a graphics industry for a long
time
especially those who used to use cork are not necessarily familiar with the
slug it's actually become much more
well understood since Adobe InDesign came out
and there's actually the slug area right document dialog box
what is important for us is the fleet
now the bleed is the part
as the document that you will prints
onto a.m. so that when you cut your business card at exactly the right size
that color
actually makes all the way to the edge now for example if you are going to
design a white business card in your book printed on white paper
bleed is not very important but if you're going to put a picture
on part have your business card and you want that picture to go all the way to
the edge
you actually have to print your
business card on AIM piece a paper slightly bigger than what you want as a
final product
so that the pictures printed bigger
Zen the final card and then once the ink is dry
the printer actually cuts them down to the proper size and actually cut away a
little bit of color picture
and that is what we call lead now the bleed value
is and a to manage so I can put in
.
I n
Indesit understands I in for being inches
and as I tab to the next box because once again my chain icon is
clicked over here it converts it automatically
points
so that's perfectly okay and as you can see over here
I have my business card the black line that's their
is the actual edge loves the paper the red line
is where the bleeders so if I'm going to place a picture for example and I want
it to go at least
to the edge here I'm going to extend it
all the way to the red line so that when the printer cuts
he can actually cut through picture
a the purple and pink lines in the middle the car
that's my margin it's important to respect your margin
because there's no guarantee that as the printer actually prints the card
that it's always going to mean remain
dead-on centered sometimes it wiggles a little bit
the paper itself is is paper it's not super super strong so sometimes a little
stretch a bit is sure there's lots of humidity it may be a little bigger
then if the papers totally dry so there it's an organic material so there is
some
what have you know a.m. variants
indeed the printing process and you have to allow for that it's perfectly normal
so we will add a little bit have extra picture
just in case something goes wrong now once again I'm zooming out so we can see
the business card over here
and what I'm going to do is I'm actually going to put
a logo on one side as a card and I'm going to put some text information on
the other side
this is going to be a one sided card only
and what I'm going to do using gonna keep it very simple
so down here I am going to you
pick my text to or the type
and I am going to click on the margin over here
I'm going to drag a text frame
so that it feels the right hand portion
%uh my cart now I was just going to invent some information here so I'm
gonna call the year
the client the person who has the car like on John Smith
now John Smith a lives on

Main Street
of course I want that to be a capital dish
and I world make him live let's say
in I don't know Boston Massachusetts
and his postal code will be or zip code for the Americans
I live in a one two three four five six
now design is not only about you know
technically making sings appear properly it's about assigning a certain amount
love importance to you the more important things and
that is signing a visual importance to its alright now John Smith's
is as important as his mailing address over here so I actually want
to make him look a bit more imports old doubled the size of this name
and I am you know I might sort of bring this down a little bit so it's not
floating all the way there at the top and I will actually put
shears information a bit lower their sold
this is starting to look you know a bit more fancy so we've got
disinformation here all insists perfectly legible and let's not forget
that we have to be able to call him so
let's say

the to one to


sup for
number
so right now just information that we have
placed on the business card these are facts now
for those of you who have paid attention to the products in the Adobe Creative
Suite
Linux software adobe illustrator for example
is the sector based illustration program
if you've ever used it you know that you can draw squares and circles control
lines and
these lines are basically mathematical
little definitions in other words you draw a circle in Illustrator
and in the background Illustrator is doing all the map that says this
is a circle and you can print it at any scale because the math doesn't change so
whether the circle is an inch wider foot wider
feet wide
still circle fonts are basically the same thing
they are sector based drawings that a type designer has taken hours upon hours
to
literally hand draw each character
in the entire alphabet so uppercase and lowercase characters all the punctuation
a all the digits and also you know also two symbols
imagine you know the the monies sign the pound sign the Asterix
you know hash mark in and everything else so it's actually a lot of work
the beauty ovett is because it is a vector-based drawing you can scale your
type
any size and I'll come out perfectly fine
that is exactly the opposite the concept of Adobe Photoshop
sold the shop is a pixel editor and pixels our little tiny squares
so the squares look good at their original size
you may you let's say make them smaller but you can't make so many bigger
are within let's say maybe
percent could probably get away with it
but after that enlarging pixels is a big no no
so if I want to place let's say a
a logo on the side this card
I have to you options I can either go
into you Adobe Illustrator and create a logo there
which is the recommended way cuz you never really know how big that world is
going to be used
obviously it's gonna be very small business card but what if they wanna
make a banner to hang on the side
building thats easy with illustrator illustrator
art worker skills very well
in Photoshop you have to know what your final product is in create the file
specifically for that
so if I jump into Adobe Illustrator sheer
and may create a new file a what I want to do in this case I'm gonna keep it
really simple
I'm actually going to make a document that
is eight house by
and is just going to be something that looks very much
let's say like the
the Japanese slacks I'm basically scummy a red circle
ago pretend that it really looks like a
like a love so I can't draw circle over here
and I can go into lets in my color picker in the toolbox
over here I'm gonna make the middle red
and I am actually gonna take away the black line
now considering that I want this to be a logo I'm going to come back over here
and I'm going to make my text weights
and hoops made a mistake there change I did not d select my circle
Dez circle the
take my textile and I will simply take
logo
so that starting to look like about the right size
hit is black I'd did sailed
wait so I've selected it I will come over here
sick white and there you go
one really really fancy logo now if I save this
and I'll
actually go put this in a specific spot
and Eric we have seen the logo now
this is an eight half by eleven pager got a very big logo
Shearer and if I go into my finder and angles
find the spot where I ceived its on my computer
my local file
is actually very small you can see it down here it is
megabytes
considering that it's an eight-and-a-half by
sheet of paper
a
makes is not very very big compare
is at artwork to exactly the same thing in Adobe Photoshop
sup going to Photoshop ago in News I am going to make it
a US sized piece paper so
letter-size ate half by eleven
DPI
which is what we should have when we r
printing and I will call this logo
as well now I'm gonna come
into you for shopping going to select spread
I am going to choose a the selection tool that his round
and I am going to basically do exactly the same artwork
so as you can see here
it's starting to look good very very very reminiscent to what they did
telustrator now go back take my text tool once again I'll
click over here and I will take them
world logo
so I have this document it's basically pretty much the same thing
fun sucking exactly same but that years besides pot
I'll save this file as
a a certified which is quite standards for going into
into print answer to file
down here I have to make color profile
and I will go six
go back to the Finder take a look at my logo dot ATI

Magus take a look at the same load on built in Photoshop

huge its over
times the size
up the other one and yet the print quality should be exactly the same
the in Serie the
illustrator one should be cleaner but it is a
DPI
file it is you know in perfect to alignment with industry standards
so when you're doing
you know design a lot love the technical aspects in a boil down to what software
are you going to use to do the job
logo design as I mentioned before because
we really have no idea where the logo it's going to be used in the future we
treat the most versatile file possibles
we build it illustrator not that you can't do it in Photoshop but
Photoshop is pixels it's limited to the size that you made it right now it's an
eight and a half by eleven
it will treat beautifully but try and print something the size is building
it's not going to work out so back to our
InDesign file I all is at was leading up to the idea that we have our
InDesign file and we will place an external documents so
a picture picture the logo and will place that
into the layout over here so what I want to do in the first case
is go to Z Adobe Illustrator file
and put that basically
on my a.m. this mister yet whoops
I made a mistake there so let me just do that because I did not
d select this for textfree
I want this I want this cursor
to appear here so that I can actually place the logo on the side so
when you go into the place command just make sure that you don't have a
previously created box selected because it will replace whatever's in there with
what you're trying to place
so if I come over here notice that my logo shows up
at its real size which is huge
way to bake remember I design something a half by eleven
time
business card now the beauty
love Illustrator is that I can take let's see the edges
box over here I can make that basically
shit and I can even right click on that box
and going to the feeding a.m.
contextual menu and I want to fit the
content proportionally inside that box
and you see that you know InDesign
automatically comes in and does all the math for me and places it perfectly
also notice that I'm Way too far I am going beyond the Black
edge over here and going beyond the paper I'm even going beyond the bleed
and my a logo would be cut off some actually
just move overlooked but and I'm going to keep it
within the margins so
the moral of the story is that when you have
artwork coming from illustrator you really
do not have to worry about size
a.m. because it's vector-based artwork it will fit perfectly fine
and you know even if you are in large in it or reducing it because it's
vector-based
you basically have nothing to worry about you play set you
mi amigo look pretty and you keep on going
the fact that this might be something like maybe

percent its original size because it's vector-based
information that is completely irrelevant
now if we switch hats and we decide to move this
off to the side creates a year
a new text box not text box that picture box sorry
frame a a.m.
not take frame I will make it in the century the same position over here
and I will place my
Photoshop
once again I will right click on yes I will go into sitting
and I will still life frame proportionally
more to cart proportional
my local still there okay it is working okay
but look what happens when we go in and we take a look
at the links palette and this is where
ifs you know you know what you're looking for you can spot
trouble GE actual PPI
over here so the pixels per inch saved in the file
is
that's what I need to print but because I've made my logo so much
smaller than the size
at which was that three hundred Paul
pixels per inch has become
in
eighty which technically is way way way too much
I am you could get by you know almost


you know about
percent more but after that
the more you go up or in fact the more you go
down to go down too far you lose quality but you go
up too far you lose quality as well
and the other thing to pay attention to you is that the color space
owes exists logo is in RGB
RGB is great for things that end up on the screen
but terrible issue trying to go print
so to trick is too take a look
at what you doing and shaker out just how big that picture has to be
now for example if we take wine guide in weekly sit here
in illustrator and we take another guide
over here this is the Wits
that I want my logo to be at
its widest you can a
let's say moves the
the ruler by grabbing the top corner over here moving
that
aligning its on the guide
and we can see that right now we will put this in inches to make
rather simple and are width
is just shy of about an inch and a half so
let's keep it let's say image in a quarter just to you
makes things easy on ourselves so if I go back to Photoshop
this is what I want but it's ate half by eleven
I want it to be an inch and a quarter white
so I'm going to do is in Photoshop I go into
image size: and I can do it in inches
I want my wits to be an inch and a quarter but because there's a little bit
await space on either side do it image
so little bit of extra notice that my 24 megabyte file
will now become
kilobytes
so radically smaller than the first
still
DPI just a lot shorter
so it has been resized if I take a look at it
at a hundred percent it's much smaller
and remember that RGB the color space was wrong
a I'm going to flatten my image to get rid
v the text layer that was urs who had
text floating on top of the red circle
such slightly image and I will convert it to CMYK
RGB is lights so like balancing of the paper
but seem like a are the angst actually on the paper going to the printers
we need colored thanks
click K and now I will just save this file
go back to my hard drive take a look at me my
AI file Adobe Illustrator still
meg
my a CMYK TS that has been reduced to the proper size

makes a little bigger not by much
and now if I go back to Photoshop notice that there's this little warning sign
over here on the edge of my picture box tell me that something is wrong
and it is echoed by the same a.m.
warning symbol inside my links power so
it means that the original source file has been modified
and if I double click that it will update
noticed that the little symbol of years gone there was a ser
redrawing of the preview on screen I come over here at my color spaces CMYK
and my effective PPI right now
is
so it has
you know is sort of slightly reduced inside this window but I can always
change that I can come back lets it to my sitting
and center it
we're still my friend proportionally or fit my content proportionally rather
so that its resize to the proper size
right now it was fit before
still image is kind of like foresight to be a little bit bigger
you can see that it's gone from three hundred
the actual PPI to an effective PPI

I will say that thats
okay for now it's
percent which is okay
ideally you should have

dead-on but for the purposes have today will say that it's good enough
so right now I have my logo on one side I have my
text on the other and the only thing I want to use I want to
had a little bit of color so that my car
you know how does a little bit have designed cents to it and
also I want to take advantage in fact that I want to use the fleet
so putting a background color is really not terribly difficult we create a box
and we go into the color picker and we choose a color
so for example I can come it's a over here
and choose something are probably still in the reddish
area so somewhat have a relationship
to my my red logo
and I'll take away the actual
take with that the black train there so I can do this over here for example in C
Knoll outline so no stroke around the box
and I will move this square this frame rather
on top of my design and right now
because I created it after the logo
a InDesign understands it as being on top
but I want it to be behind so once again I can right click
and I can use the arrange
can to sent that box to the back
and shares my logo over here
you'll notice that the logo comes in with a white background
I can actually play with that aunt
you know define the relationship between
one placed element and another with different options
so for example we have the logo TF which is here's a logo AI which is on the edge
we have
you know the tax and we have the rectangle
so what I want to do is I actually want to play with my
a I file over here and
I'm going to go into something called
its let's find it where is it it is
d transparency
obviously you can tell that to I have been using
other applications for quite a while and sometimes some
the things that I used to do that same work express kinda feel effete median
other applications but the
what I want to do is I want to come and I want to change the
qualities love this box over here
and their ago so it was in the right click I was looking droplets
so effects transparency
and basically I want to gears this layer if you will
channel preview so that the
you know what is on the
the layer ever seen its white I wanted to disappear
so wake not darken anything kennett so
dark n gets rid of the white it changes the color of my read a little bit
boats you know I can always try dear friends
options over here to see if they give me what I want
and you know this is part of the creative process over here you are going
to you
you know do exactly what you want artistically by using different
combinations of features
inside the software
so let's say that you know just to keep things simple
I'm going to use it dark and and I'm happy with that
so what we have is we have
the actual business card remember that the outlined over here the black outline
is the edge of my paper
the red outline is where the bleed must go
there's no bleed on this area over here
there's basically white that goes all the way to the edge so there's nothing
to be worried about their
but because I want this over here and I want
this brownish color to go all the way to the edge
of my card I have to put it at least
all the way to the bleed line which is in
red I can go beyond it that's not a problem but if you were to stop short of
it
I the printer could have some problems with it might be very difficult for him
to you
hide it without giving you a little sliver
white paper something like that so you can be generous there's nothing to worry
about as long as you respect
the area of the lead you should be okay so
right now I'm going to say that I've actually finish this business card
the easiest way to send this to the printer is to actually make
and Adobe PDF now in design is a great program for tree eating PDF's because
its Adobe technology so you know to Adobe products one creates the other
without
any problem whatsoever so in the presets you have high-quality print which is
actually not for going to the printers it's more for doing high-quality color
photocopies Lesar output something like that good quality
but not color separations and actual
you know income paper PDF X
is et cetera for industry-standard PDF stat are built to
perfect specifications among other things are good for archival
a are archiving digital documents
teaching simple I'm just gonna choose Press quality
as in printing press so Press Club it's perfectly OK
and I will be saving this in the same locations
so inside my folder with
my two lokos so I'm gonna call this business card and I will simply

now because I chose the proper preset over here
I went to press quality the export PDF box comes and it has the press quality
setting over here so it is a preset
but most listings that are here you will basically leaves
alone there's there's no options to go inning change
but what you do you want to do is you want to have the marks and bleeds and
these are the
pieces of information if you will that the printer needs to be able to do a
good job
in other words you check all printers marks the crop marks bleed registration
color bars
all of this information will be printed around the area the business card so for
example the printer knows where to cut
so that all the cards exactly the same size they will have let's say the
registration marks which are little symbols
so that when the printer prints with four bank's site
and magenta yellow and black to their all perfectly aligned one on top of the
other
and the other thing that we need to do is we have to make sure that our
lead information is actually being used so
use document please settings and what we put in when we went
new document is there automatically so we don't even have to do anything
and then you just hit the expert but so
believe it or not we're actually done if we take a look
inside our business cards this
is what our final product looks like
so we have the actual business card
GE's colored boxes at the top are references for the printer so when he
has to print a pure black he will measure
this black over here to make sure that it is dark enough
same thing for the White has to be pure white it can't be let's say slightly
gray
and they have measurements for all the tones in between so if the printing
presses going a bit too dark kiln
same thing that's going too late it will be obvious when they checked this over
here
the other color bar the the other bar is for colors so we have yellow magenta
site and blue which is a mix of Scion Image into
trine which is Scion in yellow and so if there's
wanna the being said is not printing in the proper proportion
these colors will be off so once again your printer will be aware of that
GE mark center over here these are called the
crop marks so when the printer has to cut your cart she's basically gonna
follow these lines as
died and cut through that
these little target things are the registration marks this is what
the printer uses to be able to print is for peaks in
perfect alignment they have to completely match up with that
and this is exactly what we can send to the printer
it goes straight from PDF to the printers there's no need to send the
InDesign file anymore
it is simply a PDF based workflow
so as a summary remember that you want to you
use CMYK elements inside
in design so you print with printing kinks not RGB light
and your PDF must be pre quality
and include all the printers marks that for
let's say graphic design
covers most of the mistakes that people will do when
they go to the printers for the first time
RGB elements inside a print project
improper bleed and no printers marks
so that's the beginning she can member that you'll do fine

How To Start Your Own 3D Printing Service Business !!!

us this morning when he needs to be is the only thing standing and I will take
you to our webinar today which we focus on starting your own
services so today i will discuss a little bit about it with the painting How To Start Your Own 3D Printing Service Business !!! market and the prediction for the next few years i the potential customers and
the industry's out for those of you looking to start their own business
why customers are you can keep it in today for both services and in-house and
then we will have been a little bit how to start your own business
out to what watching the target customers out to our get naughty will
discuss a little bit about the overhead and the RNLI example and what not
support we can help we can provide you guys distrustful
printer websites thought about finding a market is huge huge buzz around its industry today as
you all know and there's a reason
very boring party with a cent year-over-year for the left the future
looks very bright for this industry as well by wallace reporting no market
research in the banking industry researchers predict that the market will
grow by
percent around one billion and we talked about that we talked about
services consumables sales today seventy percent of the market with traditional
political reform of testing marketing and sales property types that's what the
seventy percent of the customer using the pictures today thirty percent of the
market today is manufacturing support and used parts and I would discuss it a
bit later the manufacturing segment is actually going faster
than the prototype segments are we seeing more and more companies that
manufacture and use parts and is that your doctor rate in USA and Canada which
means that we have great potential here in Canada obviously going to be our
potential customers there's a growing demand for the design companies need
concept modeling
functional modeling and marketing and sales for the types that will reduce the
time-to-market and the development cycle
manufacturing big demand for jigs and fixture customized you can picture the
manufacturing tools and died
functional prototypes and even if you spot me taking second north right in
students to start their own businesses not to make a product the first
prototype of their product in order to decision much early get some and even
using politics are other small sleep disorder that have the consumer product
that you know they need a bigger part they need more quality materials we use
services as well and of course education in with you looking at products and
sparks industries such as what we are always architectural animation and
entertainment electronics aerospace automotive medical medical equipment and
many more can be our customers and are using today
occasion what our customers are using the form so important functional
prototypes design verification that part of bikes
and used parts in
repins for example in which such about this week
probably but anything can be customized with the ending is the best solution
payday injection molding prototype made it so you actually can't win them all in
today and use it for more of that injects about a hundred
under parts from a single malt
pictures for the manufacturing floor and we can set and entertainment parking
lots of movies made with their trip yesterday and even shoulders well that's
a growing industry medical devices in in surgical technology today and resolution
of the positive winter in bed tents dramatically in the last few years of
the day
certain sense can plan and prepare for surgery which will be painting organs
that they can get from MRI scans since the industry that another fast-growing
industry efforts with the painting ecology year for all its owners so
there's nothing really thinking they're still more than four ever we in the much
faster than meaning the ship used to know we are we are being affected by
twenty painting on a daily basis so every every product that we we are
touching have a part of the design of the manufacturing of the spotlight would
be our speakers iPod iPhone car seats car dashboard all being used
companies used with the painting in the design cycle or during the site this
week for the painting of anything that related to musician
and complex parts and of course global you want to know
vinyl that's that's the right spot painting high-volume manufacturing it's
still going to be more efficient go with all the morning actually painting is
gonna be patient if we need new complex geometries and no clue where quality of
so why customers are using today less of me politicking so no product being with
me painting is much cheaper than any other option today after so when when
you have a house painter or if you services usually gonna be cheaper faster
and more convenient than the only actually get your decision early in the
design process and you can test your design faster also what you can do is
asking people for five different design in the same time tonight when you have
all of the morning but you're going to the painting for politics and money
actually Asian companies increasing the quality using the time to market for the
development which is very important for the can be compared with most of the
companies you services before the House printer which is very important for all
together to start their own business trip by for example they spent
year
before they purchase their perspective today they have three pointers in as we
said adoption rate and I slower than in the USA most of the companies they are
looking for services and not ready yet
companies that purchase printers continuity of services for overflow and
different technologies we have different technologies
it's hard to find knowledgeable and your applications usually what happened
company's purchase
percent of their needs and then the day the rest will still use of course they
have over
w services well there are parts and human and imagery that you
cannot do with other technologies but only with anybody actually that's
another big advantage of this industry
let's discuss about some examples we talked about prototyping and the value
politicking for companies I would like to talk about this example
agricultural market this is a company name out there will be signed quite
serious and they used to
very costly for them it's not about between
and
box and the
thing about this market very sizable business they usually develop the
product in the all the spring there the testing period is very short only doing
this in this area and then they're all the product out so they have between
five to seven weeks before the holdout in the past the used one of the time in
seven weeks in today which will painting not only save money
about
Dr Palatine by most value of them was the saving of time instead of
one where they can get all that they can test vote on the tax five weeks and a
decision much so that's that was the most of them using repeated reporting
trips and pictures
both the manufacturing applications
let's not talk about these G its genesis of your hands in your hand made up of
three different parts the you know the regular way or the old way of every
different parts and let's compare
this is Jay from their traditional way of the division will be approached you
need for parts numbers
apartheid months and I'll or drawings for all the attacks while inventory and
the list goes on and on it it's a part of the text I really painting is a much
easier process and much easier basically what we need is one number
and we can get out of every types of the day and then we can pick apart very easy
process which as an alternate project with us so the benefits of union jobs in
picture with repainting the first one of course there will be time and cost
saving between nineteen percent reduction instead I percent
post-production well streamline the process so we eliminate
drawings we minimize the euro and payment requirements and become a test
project and of course the digital rights we don't have to put anything on the
shelf
we have everything in our computer and once we needed just paint it doesn't
have to be on in this finding different operations as well just stepped up to
save money on the interest in this example four-digit pictures again from a
BMW they were looking to do a jeep have them to mount be logo on our views do
you imagine that which was not supposed to know me and they have to compromise
on the shape but which will be painting basic need the freedom of thought so
there is no limitation shape also withdrew the painting you can make it
more legitimate and lighter so you can do it with sparse feeling that produced
the way I seventy percent and you can change that be more economical than
using it no it's not a damaged so by by switching repainting aluminum they save


days went down to 15 days and the cost went down all
and
enforced without any real work depending on service or repair works in any kind
of order so the summary of benefits of the three cases that went through the
BMW picture picture it's like
percent reduction of ninety percent actually we
will production and it's more safe and dynamic views echo there with you
the 44th every time which was the most important to them or just
percent
reduction in cost seventy percent fewer parts that need for this prototype and
installed customer value proposition and the picture itself
action and 74% ok so now we understand a little bit the
the value that is this week and bring to customers
let's drill down to the business of how can we start a successful business and
money to do business
the first thing that I always recommend customers target marketing potential
market don't go and say you know I'm going to provide services or the rest of
the east and unity you need to decide what your customer needs you need to
understand exactly what the patient will will be you know and and the advantages
of using for the pinnacle those application for example if we target the
manufacturing industry automotive industry so we know exactly what
application
the automotive industry needs
be doing that we will look for the right technology providing knowledge that will
answer these both needs and those pains at the same thing with medical same
thing with education so it's important but what the market you know after that
it's the right solution right solution it's the right technology we have this
kind of technology of the SLA SLs the College of Technology in technologies
you deposition modeling FDM technology we can call it all the time what will be
the right technology for the industry and going up then of course I need to
get our need to have the right side of the card or even magically fix bicycle
need money to train my employees and we we can't help it you know we have
training in house and on site but is imported my the people used to people
who know how to take advantage of statin treatment and provide the right service
to the customers and the last things of course marketing and sales so you know
the right launch event social media 2010 have which is an online service what's I
and so we can help job in marketing and sales and business strategy let's talk
about the real life example this will be a better one of our oil and gas so this
this was made other ABS plastic and the size of the estate

inches
exactly's
from the Y exist and
on this year so what was our overhead what
will be over had mixed up with the printer let's assume that buying a
printer for gay and looking on five years appreciation beverage
used
hour per year which is basically all I was so the cost of
printing our will be the cost of being divided by the wall which is entitled to
an hour apart we started with ePrint depending on the specific in the west of
the seven hours we have of course it might be faster but you know let's let's
take this exam and then let's open our direct path which are the opinions of
the average cost for the material is ultimately became and this material this

cubic inches for the material and one or two because of the monetary

and because of the support material would be wanting to see and then the
labor we have some labor printing and a little bit of hospices overall the good
thing about living in a very light on labor most of the stuff you know and Sri
even the supporting all is so the the the the Labor Department
minutes and
we can't wait for you for about an hour so the labor here is
per hour total
cost is

let's assume that we we are looking to get

thats how we gonna crisis part of the red see how we can justify the equipment
based on this part in that doesn example of posters are either going with that
but based on this part assume that we are in customer who needs a part which
led to an envelope of
teenagers in a variety of them plus a BS
polycarbonate anything high-tech material the guilt and we can go to

В°c so we estimate the training costs including cleaning station and shipment
to be
all the spending for five years but maybe a little bit less than
or grandma average margin for this part is

revenue minus also just discussed for a number of monthly printing out to break
even all be specific part you wanna wait hours a month now the potential is much
higher right so we have it would take six days a week
hours a day he said
involved in it and it's about overnight
other weekend and you don't have to babysit printer so let's get the maximum
margin from days of week is aiding already minus our months because it's a
margin of error is multiplied by well we get a revenue of profit of
year which
meant that the repeal of the investment going to be a little bit more than a
year but it's very close
example of the conflict with a specific job being so you know it's it's
important you know when you want to start a business to have a partner in
supporting will be here in job being a good infrastructure the pic and support
and we already doing a few customers starting in a very successful and other
customers we are enjoying that we are not in the services business but we have
not yet entered Academy of more than
customers across Canada six
offices so we can help with the consolation we can help with the launch
strategies in person marketing business and marketing support
well technical support all over Canada thing we offer finance financing and
leasing options so basically we can cover the whole needs that you might
have to make sure that you have a good good good good I'm sorry PCs and and you
started correctly that you get the right product for your industry that you go
after you get the right training for your people because the right software
that you need to run the printer and maybe even six ties will will will be
close to you know if he needs
services applications specific applications so weird most human beings
that out and of course a better case something goes wrong and it's a bigger
printing we know you know to summarize our webinar which was short but I hope
it helped a little bit further information there is high and going for
this point market price of the meeting is going
huge bother on the most people are you going to try and and see how they can
incorporate this technology outside the natural already in capital equipment
right now so they are going to start with
services this because this growing market share their high margin in this
business and we expect that those market will stay there for the next week low
overhead costs are cnc-machined people program and the consumer product that it
will be this year those printers are commercial printers their hands free
even the post office in the country so its low overhead costs and increase your
business
multiple multiple sources of revenue that big advantage not simple machine
shops or or or the soviet looking to get the kind of revenue sources in dallas
also what we see from other customer that when when they were introduced
repainting it happen to boost their current pieces so it basically drive
more traffic to the torrent business that they have for example the UPS Store
United States today that it produced anything and it helps them to ramp up
their businesses well and even ship them or more people coming to the store today
topic and something
their county despite being of eighty you know customers like companies that being
innovative and using new technology in developing the next thing with the next
Industrial Revolution so it's always be ahead of the curve in providing
innovative solution customers and of course the company and in the end of the
competition is important we always gonna be innovating always want to be out of
the competition and this is a good start
that's all for now thank you for joining me my name again is to be finkelstein
and the director of the printing and copying will be glad to be anyone like
more information and help us thank you very much have a great day *** ***

How to Design a Business Card !!!

English English
- Hey guys, so a little while ago, I made a video
about how to design a resume, and I got some requests
asking if I could make a video How to Design a Business Card !!! about how to design business cards.
So, that's what I'm doing right now.
So, let's switch it up a little and start at the end.
The final step is going to be to make a sweet music video
about how awesome your new cards are.
в™« Take a look at my card
в™« My business card
photography prints в™« I work so hard baby
в™« 'Cause I'm a YouTube partner crazy в™«
But how do we get to that point?
So, the standard size for business cards is
three and a half by two inches.
It's really not very much space,
so you need to figure out what purpose you'll be
using the cards for and what information
you need to put on the card.
Will you being giving your cards to potential customers,
to potential YouTube viewers, to someone who you want
to hire you for a job?
Think about what you want the recipient to
get out of the card before you even sit down to design it.
No matter what your use case, though, your business card
should always match your other branding.
Your website, resume, cover letter don't have to be
identical, but they should look like they all belong
to the same design family,
whether that's consistent logos, photography,
color scheme, typefaces.
If someone picks up your card, they should be able to
associate it with all the other material
you put out there to represent yourself.
You can keep it simple.
That's totally fine.
Or keep it more playful, whatever you think
best represents you.
So what information do you really need on the business card?
It'll vary for everyone, but pretty much always,
your name or company name.
Maybe a slogan.
And then just contact information.
Email, website, twitter handle, YouTube channel.
Depending on the size of your card, I recommend
cutting it off at about four or five lines of text.
But if you do include more, just make sure it doesn't
get too cluttered.
If you're a YouTuber, you might want to consider
including a photo of your face on the back,
since your face is kind of what you're selling.
Just make sure it's a high quality photo and not
a screenshot from like a
And you know, there are so many different possibilities
for how to design a business card,
that it can get really overwhelming.
But just try to stay focused on what it is you want
to communicate, and hopefully that'll help you come up
with some good design ideas.
Just make sure that your layout
and typography are impeccable.
Business cards are so small and so minimalist
that you really need to put a lot of thought
into every single element.
Make sure every word is spelled and positioned
and kerned perfectly, because any mistake will be
the only thing you're able to see when you're holding

cards in your hand.
Also, don't be afraid to use small typography,
just like I mentioned in the resumes video,
no high school teacher is making you use

point Times New Roman anymore.
Try a nice San Serif, maybe at six points,
and just print it out to make sure it's still legible.
Big text on a little card can just look horsey and amateur.
So, bring your type down, and leave enough white space
that still looks balanced and professional.
Also, you could consider personalizing your cards somehow.
I've seen some companies who just order blank, generic cards
and then get each employee a rubber stamp
so that they can just make as many as they need.
Or you could sign them, or you could write something.
In one of my previous card designs, I actually wrote
what I was to the person I was giving it to,
whether it's a graphic designer or a YouTuber.
And everyone appreciates getting something
unique and personalized.
So now that you have your card design, you need to think
about how many cards you actually need.
If you're going to networking events every week,
maybe you do need to buy
cards at a time.
But don't get sucked into those "Five million cards for
"five dollars" deals if you're not actually going to
use that many cards.
Instead, put that money towards a quality print shop
where you may get less cards, but the quality
will be so much better.
And you won't be representing yourself with cheap materials.
If you don't put in the effort to make high quality
business cards, what will make anyone else think that you
do quality work anywhere else in your life?
Just like you might buy a nice suit jacket
or get a nice haircut to present yourself well to the world,
your business card reflects on you the exact same way.
There's actually this great blog post from awhile ago
where this guy got the same card printed by
five different companies and compared the quality
and cost of each.
Moo.com came in on top for quality, of course.
They're all I ever use for my business cards these days.
They are pretty pricy, but they do these
really cute mini cards, as well as these
really nice, thick cardstock cards.
And they do this thing where you can print the same
front on all of your cards but have all different backs.
So, for my current cards, I got some with my face on them
and then some with my design and crafting work,
so that I can give them to different people,
depending on how I want them to remember me.
And finally, no business card how-to would be complete
without mentioning those gimmicky business cards
that always show up in those
"
Best Business Cards" blog posts.
There's a thing inherently wrong with these types of cards,
but if you decide to make yours like that,
just make sure that your concept is strong enough
that it's worth putting in the extra money and effort.
Be aware that if your card is a weird size
or an uncommon material or has lots of die-cuts or folds,
that they can get lost or ruined when people drop them
in their bags and desk drawers,
so just make sure they're durable, too.
And don't let your concept overwhelm your design.
Don't get so obsessed with the gimmick that you lose sight
of the core purpose of a business card, which is usually
to communicate contact information.
So, I hope this was useful for you guys.
Let me know in the comments
if you have any questions, or if there is anything else
you want to see me make a video about how to design.
If you're new here, you might want to check out
the video I made about how to design a resume
or the last video I posted, which was all about
funny color swatch names.
And if you want to see all of my graphic design videos,
I'll have a playlist linked down below.
Don't forget to subscribe for new videos
every Tuesday and Thursday.
And thank you all so much for watching.
I'll see you all next time.
в™« Take a look at my card
в™« My business card
в™« If you want my number
в™« You'll have to ask because I didn't put it on the card в™«
Bonus craft project: I was cleaning the other day,
and I was really sick of the color of my tissue box,
so I covered it in silver foil tape, and now it looks
like a spaceship, and it's all shiny and adorable,
and I love it.
I might do more videos about how to personalize
your tissue boxes, so let me know if you want to see that. *** ***
