For the latest Circlebox giveaway we’re doing something for a local printing firm from Cambridge, just a short drive away from where I live. Up for grabs are two sets of 500 high-quality, single-sided business cards. Read on to find out how to win!
The Company
If you win these business cards, the great guys over at Cambridge Graphics will be printing your cards, a high-quality printing firm powered by printing.com, who have recently opened a firm over the states at us.printing.com.
They print everyday products such as business cards, flyers, posters, booklets and things to mail – be sure to view their full range of products and prices. If you’re looking for something to put a smile on your clients faces (read about how to make a client happy) then you may be interested in their special range of promotional products such as pens, bags, keyrings, desk tidys, sticky notes and the popular retro toys, YoYo’s!
The Prize
In total there are going to be two winners, both of which will get their hands on 500 single-sided business cards. The prizes can be shipped worldwide, so it doesn’t matter where you live!
How To Enter
Entering couldn’t be easier. All you have to do is retweet this post and leave a comment on this page telling us what you would use the business cards for – it might be as a fun project, to help promote your new business or simply because you’re running out of your existing cards!
The Next Step
The competition will stay open until the midnight (GMT) on the 31st of March. Winners will be selected at random using a number generator, and will be contacted via email so be sure to leave a valid email when leaving your comment.
Your email address will be passed on to Cambridge Graphics, who will then take you through the process of getting your cards printed and dispatched. Good luck!

This would be awesome! I plan to start web design part time alongside my current job and business cards would be a step in the right direction. It would also allow me to get my teeth into some business card design, something I have yet to take a look at.

I’ve recently started down the road towards freelancing and I’ve been advised by many people to get business cards printed – Helps the professional look!
This would certainly give me a head start and hopefully dull down the procrastination.
