Help with an idea.

I cant' find the artwork for my last cards or the show cards that i use, but my current personal card (I have removed my surname and phone number, but they are on the actual cards) is this, When designing my cards i try to keep it simple and clean.

I used to have a card that listed stuff like Glamour, Adult and whatever on it, but it was off putting for alot of girls, and i got the hassles you listed above. Also used to link to my adult sites but again it had a negative effect, so i keep it plain and simple and explain more via the phone or email when they contact me. I am currently contemplating having a 'photographers' website on my next card to see if the effect is any different. I just keep trying things til i get a happy medium

The show cards, I get 1000 printed every few months which I give out at Shows like Max Power, Autosport, MPH, etc, which usually include a few photo's and some information, which are done up like a club flyer are and 50/50 for new girls, and photographers / punters alike. For ModSanc its for Girls and Photographers, any photographer with an SLR and any girls my PR Girls thing looks the part. for my Adult Stuff is for New Members and Girls, they are tailored to my needs.

I do think, less is more when it comes to handing information out

If you have your own website then its best to have your web address on your business card then any girl that you give a card to can see what sort of material you shoot, a lot of people get a prospective model to do a shoot with the idea its just artistic nude posing and then when they turn up try to get her to do stronger stuff, a lot of girls are happy to do stronger poses but they like to know from the start !love!

I've done that myself, when a mate was running a model/promotions agency. Most of the time you get odd looks, giggles or "I'd like to but..." Didn't work that well.

"Get NICE cards, it sets a good example and impression It maybe in my head, but when using 350gsm matt lam, and 400gsm silk cards with a crisp cut, i get a better turn around than when I had plain 220gsm cards. So i think the card sets an impression of professionalism, but it may just be down to who i give them too, and i am better at what i do."

You're quite right there - having a business card on a decent heavy board (330gsm - 400gsm ideally) will make them look more substantial, as for the type of board you use the world's pretty much your oyster.
One of the guys I know had a black card with gold writing - that might sound tacky but it looked very cool.

Which brings me to my next point... design.
I think people will be looking for reasons to brush off any advances and a cheap n dodgy looking design will put them off immediately.
The sample you put up is a great example of doing things right - all the detail you need, great imagery and not too jammed up.

Anyone who might be looking for a designer by the way... please feel free to give me a nudge.

Thats where most of my Men Only/Mayfair/Penthouse Girls came from out of Night-Clubs. And most did up to top shelve. Best places were in the midlands like Manchester, Leeds, York and down south Bournemouth and Brighton.

Night Clubs are great for it, but don't give too much info to a pissed up girlie, give them enough, but not too much, either get them to call you sobar, or you call them a day or 2 later.
