While I do appreciate Moo and think their cards and lux and fun saying “Gone are the days where getting business cards is a HUGE expense and effort.” is a slap in the face to designers like me who work at small print shops trying to keep their heads above water. I am good at what I do and my business cards are worth it.
It would be like me looking at a temporary tattoo and saying, “I’m going to get one out of this here $.25 machine cuz’ why go through the HUGE expense and effort to get a Tattly.”
I’m just sorry you feel that way.

@Erin, You can upload your own designs to Moo. It has nothing to do with not hiring a designer like you. Maybe look at it that way, that you can now offer your clients an affordable way to print their beautiful business cards that you designed?
