FAQs

Business Card Magnets

Do business card magnets and promotional products really work?
Absolutely! A 2004 study by L.J Market Research found that more than 71% of Dallas/Ft. Worth airport travelers indicated they received at least one promotional product in the last 12 months. Of this 71%:
  • 76% were able to recall the name of the advertiser on the promotional. This compares with 53.5% name recognition of an advertiser from a print publication read in the last week.
  • 52% of participants in the study did business with the advertiser after receiving the promotional product
  • 52.1% of participants reported having a more favorable impression of the advertiser since receiving the item
So, if you're looking to stick around(!) and grow your business and bottom line, magnets are for you.

Okay, I'm sold! How will I know the quality of your magnets without seeing them?
We manufacture all of our magnets in the United States out of the highest quality US sourced and derived materials available and are confident you'll find them to be top notch. Of course, if you'd like to see for yourself please contact us to request free samples.

What is the difference between your value, standard, and premium business card magnets?
Good question! All of our magnets are printed in the same manner using the newest, state of the art print technologies and finished with a high quality laminate. The only difference is the thickness of the actual magnetic material:
  • Value: 20mil thick and capable of holding 1 sheet of paper to the fridge. Ideal if on a budget and/or looking to mail out your magnets.
  • Standard: 25mil thick and capable of holding 4 sheets of paper to the fridge. Perfect if you're looking to mail out your magnetic business cards or carry a stack around.
  • Premium: 30mil thick and capable of holding 5 sheets of paper to the fridge. Ideal for communicating your company's value and holding several sheets of paper to the fridge.

What is the difference between indoor and outdoor business card magnets?
Indoor business card magnets are meant to be kept indoors, outside of the elements. Outdoor business card magnets, on the other hand, are thicker, stronger, and printed with UV resistant ink to weather the elements. Additionally, outdoor magnets can be applied to moving items like cars, trucks, or vans. All of our outdoor magnets can be found here.

I'm looking to get a quote on a large quantity. Can you help?
Absolutely! To receive a quote simply contact us to let us know exactly what you're looking for. We'll be in touch within the next few business hours.

So I know all costs up front, what DO your prices include?
Forget hidden fees and silly, old school charges for design and setup. The price you see is the price you pay, save for shipping. Which is free, if it's your first time order.

Your magnets are made in China, no?
Absolutely not. While China derived product may (though likely not) save a few cents here and there, it comes at the expense of turnaround, local jobs, the environment, and national pride. Our custom magnets from the magnetic material to the printed paper to the laminate finish are completely American made. And will continue to be so.

Ordering

How do I place an order?
Placing an order for custom magnets is as easy as 1, 2, 3:

I love getting things in the mail -when will my magnets ship out?
For all orders, you will receive a design proof of your magnets within 24 hours. After receiving approval and payment your magnets will move to our production department. Standard turnaround is 5 days, though you can opt for products with 3 and even next day turnaround.

Uh oh. I need to cancel my order.
While we hate to see you leave, we do need written notice via fax, e-mail or mail. Any realized production or material costs will be charged.

Artwork and Design

My design has about 40 million colors in it. Now what? Whether looking for business card magnets with 4 or 40 million colors it's the same price.

Do you charge extra for artwork?
Nope, any and all artwork is free of charge. However, after two proofs we reserve the right to charge $20 each.

I need my logo exactly color matched.
We do our very best to maintain the highest possible quality assurance, having a number of quality control methods in place. However and unfortunately, we cannot guarantee exact color matches. That said, please let us know if it's a requirement and we'll make additional arrangements.

I'll be providing my own art. What type of file formats can you accept?
Great! Our art guidelines should be a big help.

I have multiple versions of my art. Now what?
No worries! Each version of art, up to 10 in total, will be priced at $30 each. Above 10 and it's $20 each. That said, and to save some money, you will be charged a rate for the total quantity of business card magnets ordered, vs. a quantity rate for each individual copy ordered.

Payment Process

When will you ask for payment?
To move your custom magnets into production, payment is required in full once you provide approval for your artwork.

How do I pay for my orders?
