Hello, I need to have a two-sided full color postcard designed that will look nice and professional. I already have a logo designed here years ago.

The post card will be 6" tall and 9" wide.

Back Side
We need to leave room for us to print the postage permit in the upper right corner and the address in the center.

I'd like to prominently display the words WEEKLY LAWN MOWING on this side, the phone number (972-365-8772) and the logo.

Front Side

On this side, I'd like to also prominently display the words WEEKLY LAWN MOWING, as well as the website (meierslandscape.com), telephone (972-365-8772).

We also need to include the logos for Visa, Mastercard, Discover and American Express.

Here is where it gets kinda tricky with limited space. The list price for mowing most lawns is $28.50 with a six mow minimum commitment from the client. We have to indicate the 6 mow minimum commitment, otherwise my phone will ring with losers wanting us to mow one time for $28.50. We also require a credit card on file. I'd like the price to have an asterisk or something and then underneath in smaller print, we dictate 6 cut minimum to begin service and credit card required for next day payment.

However, if the client also subscribes to our fertilization and weed control program, we discount the price to $26.50.

I don't know enough about marketing to figure out if I want to advertise both prices or just the $28.50 price. I'll let you guys figure that out and see how it looks with the available space.

I'd also like to advertise the following services:

Lawn Fertilization & Weed Control
Bed Weed Control
Shrub Trimming & Bed Clean-up

I'd also like to advertise the following strengths:

1.) We show up on the day we're supposed to

2.) Phones and e-mail answered m-f, 8am to 5pm

3.) Accurate billing

4.) We use small, light weight mowers that won't damage your lawn as opposed to heavy machinery

5.) BS Landscape Contracting, Oklahoma State University

I will attach some pictures that you may use if you like, but you don't have to.

Hi, here's my entry. Do you happen to have the specs for the back (for the mailing address, etc) from the printer you are using? Thanks!

Feedback welcome. :D

Sarah,

Can we delete all the seeling points on the addressable side and just say, in very large type, WEEKLY LAWN MOWING or LAWN MOWING...whichever fits best.

Sarah,

Can we try it with LAWN MOWING stretched all the way from one side of the postcard to the other? Perhaps a smaller font right above that says WEEKLY?

Thanks
