Office Casual: How to make a business card in 90 seconds

Here's a challenge: can I make a business card in 90 seconds? Learn a thing or two about to work with the free templates at Office Online.


Office Casual: How to make a business card in 90 seconds?

Now, I don't know if you would want to make business card in 90 seconds, but I'm thinking if I can do it this quickly, and you take, I don't know, 10 minutes and create your own card, you still have saved time and money. True, I picked a pretty simple card, there are more colorful and rich cards (and you can upload your own design, if you wish). You can find the business card sheets I used here. --Doug Thomas

Doug, another stellar video. Love split screen stuff and the cameos. One thing that bugged me a little was that the Microsoft embossing obscures the stop watch. Sure you're aware of that, but thought I'd mention it in case you didn't.

Very interesting. Doug, I am glad that I am not the only one who knows about business card sheets. Believe it or not, I designed my own business cards by myself with Publisher 2002. Although the work took more than 10 minutes to do, it was fun. The beauty of the work is that I did it by myself without any consultation or help from someone else. I print my own business cards on a Canon color laser printer. Also, I made my own brochure and flyer advertising my typewriting business. Using Microsoft Word to make business cards is nice for all-text cards without a single graphic. Microsoft Publisher is perfect for adding graphics, including borders and horizontal rulers. Using a computer and printer to make business cards and brochures saves lots of money and time.
