Greeting cards...how to get them out there...? Help !
I have a great collection of my photos, made in greeting cards very similar to any folded card we buy in all stores for whatever occasions...
All my cards are hand signed as of now...( I realize that if it`s getting out of hands...no punt intended !...I might not be able to sign thousands...but so far I don`t have that problem yet )
I have flowers,swans,butterflies,sunsets,vineyards,grapes...just to mention some,
...how do I get them out there ?

I`m a new greeting card company. I was reading everyone`s replies. I have several questions: how do I find reputable printers in my area and/ or around the country that print professional quality greeting cards and provide excellent customer service. 2) Is it better to build your own website or hire a professional? Is building your own website comparable (in terms of a professional appearance) to what professionals can do? LAST QUESTION I PROMISE: Does anyone know an excellent T-shirt company that produces excellent T-shirts?
I have done a lot of reading. There are so many OPTIONS, but I don`t know how to decide what is the right choice? Even with the reading I do, it still feels like hit or miss.
For greeting card printing, you can look in to local specialty printers in your area. Not Kinkos style, but specialty printing houses.
Like you said, you do have a lot of options. For online companies, many of them supply samples. I`d get samples, and make a list of pricing and then compare them to find the one that most closely fits your criteria.
As for building a website, if you don`t know how to do it, definitely hire somebody. You have to look professional if you want people to take you seriously. Your sales will show it!
My husband has shirts at CafePress and Zazzle. Zazzle does a much better job on black shirts. Cafepress just prints it on, and it fades off on black, but Zazzle puts a white layer on first, so it`s nice and bright. However, he sells a lot more on Cafepress by picking up browsers there.
