Well you'll want to fix the typos that are on the back of the card.

I think giving out personal information like the phone number and a personal e-mail address is an EXTREMELY BAD IDEA, jmo. What if the guy comes back to his car and someone backed into it? He would think that you did it and might try to sue you.

IMO, keeping the card w/o screen names or personal names is a really GOOD IDEA.

What do you guys/girls think?

Also, if we take the info on the back of the card and reduce it in size, we could add it to the front/bottom of the card. This way we could keep the back clear incase you meet someone in public and want to give out your personal information.

I personally don't give my phone number to random guys on the street, even if they have a G

J/k..

I agree, like I previously posted, I'd rather put g35driver.com on the card and have them visit the FGC and SE sections. But anyone is free to put their contact info on it if they want to. I saw 2 more modded Gs around Hallandale today but my printer is acting up so I can't even print out the current version of the card I'm going to work on that, but someone has to educate me on using those business card templates

For the love of GOD!!!

Please, no one print out anything related to the FGC and club cards. Also, please don't hand out anything related to the FGC to anyone prior to March 5th meet and prior to g8tor20's prior blessing. Remember technically (legally) there is no FGC until March 5th.

Finiti, you're killing me.

edit: at the end of the 2nd part of the card, "Clearwater, FL" was cut off.

looks good but few errors/suggestions...

1)the not for profit is not needed on the front

2)
$500 Over Invoice on MOST Infiniti Models
=> Offered to Premier Club Members

3)
i would put..
"And Much Much More..." instead of "Much More to Come..."

Just my opinion (and even though I benefited from the "privileges"), the actual "disccount" should not be disclosed on the business card. We are here to "promote" the club, but at the same time (I feel) that we should not advertise like some company throwing an "end of the year sale". (In my opinion) we should try to entice people to simply check us out. An informational flyer/pamphlet/business card, if you may call it. There seems to be a lot of interest in this organization, and plenty of involvement. So the question is...quantity or quality. If they want further info, the website should be suffice. If not, there are plenty of ways to get further info. I have more to say, but maybe these things should be stated in the Members Only forum. Neffster/FGC, we've got a great thing going...no need to saturate the market. I apologize in advanced if anyone is offended...I'm new to the club, and maybe I'm not seeing things clearly. This is an open discussion, and I'm open to hearing everyone's opinion. :>). We're all here for the same reason...the love of the G35. :>).

all good corrections. i know my idea is not perfect...just trying to throw out another design so we can get this card put together as quickly as possible so we can go out there and promote. although, i do like the FGC picture with the car outline, rather than the state outline.

i also agree with pinosport. with the most recent mishap with a few members of the FGC, i think our club would prefer quality over quantity. i would not like people paying the $40 membership fee or whatever it is, just so they can use the VPP to get the $500 over invoice price. i would hope the members would want to become involved in our club, to appreciate the G and help the club become better organized.

I LOVE THE NEW CARD. Of course it would need dabomb's suggestions added, but I love it.

Also, removing the FGC-VPP portion is probably a good idea. Odds are that when we hand the cards out, we'll be handing them out to people who already own a G35, so they probably wouldn't benefit from the VPP offer anyway.

I too agree with quality over quantity and just as a point of reference; out of the last 5 people to join the FGC after the Charter Membership offer ended, 4 of those 5 members are PREMIER MEMBERS! That's quality IMO, meaning that they're willing to join the club for the long haul and not just trying to get a t-shirt and a raffle ticket for a cheap price.

Again, good work on the club card!

Jason, do we need to have the corporate seal on this card? My guess is that we wouldn't need it, but if we did we'd have to add the state logo back on the card somewhere (maybe make it small and put it on the back in a corner or something).
