Help Me Write New Business Cards

**Kep!** · 10-02-2007, 04:45 PM

My magic business is reborn and I need fresh cards. But, I'm working as a magician and a psychic...as a rule these two don't mix on a B-Card...one type of audience doesn't like the other. Sooooo...I'm looking for ideas on how to phrase my occupation.

Also, an ethical quandary: I would like to put a quote about my work on the card (I've worked it into the design). I have had glowing write ups by many newspapers in the past, but I lost all of them in my last move. SO! Do I fabricate one that's true but not exact or do I omit it completely to the detriment of the marketing material? Thoughts?

Wouldn't the psychics already know you do magic?

I just thought of Tobias' business cards on Arrested Development where he combined Therapist and Analyst into Analrapist.

Psygician?

So, you saying that Kep should be a magchic?

Kep, I would omit the quote unless you can find the real one. Newspapers do have some back issues on the internet, but not too far back usually.

You should take a cue from this guy and just call yourself "Kep!"

Fair warning for the overly sensitive...R Rated content in that link.

I always liked that scene...been ages, thanks for finding it.

Actually, I went by Kep! for years, but I decided to go a new direction, so I think it's going to be my regular name from here on out...though it's a tough call.

Interestingly, that's what they called it when I worked in The Valley.

Thanks for the ideas!

Am I stating the obvious by saying: Two sets of cards....?

They're not that expensive, man.

No, I'm afraid I have to do that too...I'm just chintzy.
