Many people already know about all of the free business card offers from Vistaprint. What many people don't know is that you pay a little for shipping, but then they add their logo and text to the back of your business card! So instead of promoting you and your business through your business cards, you're promoting Vistaprint as well!

There is a better way. Instead of getting free business cards, check out websites that offer free business card templates. You can download these free templates, change the name, address and other details then send them to your favorite printer to have them printed. Not only are you getting custom business cards, but you don't have to advertise for anyone but yourself.

What makes this deal worthwhile is that, while Vistaprint claims "free business cards" you're actually still paying for shipping. With free business card templates, you download the templates and do whatever you would like with them. That means that they're actually free.

Another wonderful thing about free business card templates is that many sites will even customize these free templates for you. Sometimes they will charge a small fee, but other times they will edit their free business card templates to fit your needs at no charge to you.

Websites offer free business card templates so they can spread the word about their website and designing. Many people often have paid business card templates for sell along with their free business card templates. Some people just enjoy designing business cards and have no great reason for giving them away. These are the people you want to look for. Someone who gives everything away at no charge. You'll be able to spot these websites because they don't have a shopping cart built into their site.

Next time you're ready to buy business cards remember to browse for free business card templates and see if you can't find something that matches what you need, and for free!
