today ($20-$30). You give the simplest of infoto most any printer, and he will make up 1,000 cards for you quickl.Put on the card you
name (made-up name and/or company name - so when people call youon your cell phone you know its for jobbing) and the help or services you can provide.Make it as simple as possible, yet understandable... and SAFE!.

This trust will be established, hopefully, during your original contact/introduction while handing out your card. At that
time you will have discussed your services AND allow the prospective client to get familiar with your manner, experience,
