If you’ve used up a whole box of MOO MiniCards, you’ll be left with lots of new contacts and… A white box without a purpose.
Luckily we’ve got just the purpose for these blank canvases – the MOO MiniCard MiniGift Box Competition! We’ve been inspired in the past by the amazing things you’ve done with MiniCard boxes and thought we’d give you a little nudge to celebrate your creativity, in time for Christmas and the Holidays.
We’d love to see what you can do with some felt, marker pens, glue, glitter, scrapbooking paper, polymer clay, yarn, and anything else you can find about the house by crafting a MOO MiniCard box (old or new) into either a festive …Continue reading this article…
Even an online/web business cannot live in a vacuum.
When you started your web based business you probably had coffee with your suppliers, posted freshly signed contracts through the mail and called potential new clients. All of these really important milestone events happened offline, in the “real world”.
Whilst it’s great to meet face-to-face, we have to admit it’s not practical all of the time which is why the UK portion of MOO’s Marketing team don’t fly from MOO HQ in London (UK) to our office in Rhode Island (USA) for our weekly Marketing meeting (despite how much fun it’d be to pay the Providence office a visit). Instead, we try to make use of all of the latest technology to keep …Continue reading this article…
There had been much discussion at MOO Studios as to where is the best place to find that perfect Christmas gift (we knew where to find Christmas Cards). But, it seemed we were all seeking a unique, one-of-a-kind gift for our special someone and weren’t sure where we could find it. Luckily, we now have the answer.
Last week, many of you emailed us your favourite local Christmas Craft Fair or Market. We’ve compiled those fairs here. If you have other fairs that we should check out, please list them in the comments!

Freelance life can be tough. Long gaps between commissions. Accounts departments who just can’t seem to find your invoice. Not to mention the ever-present need to get your work seen by the people who count.
Jonny Wan, a freelance illustrator from Sheffield, knows all about that. A graduate of the Manchester School of Art, he’s constantly striving to ensure his unique illustrative style (think abstracted facial expressions, patterns, symmetry and hand-drawn lettering) snags the attention of creative directors everywhere – and he does so via Business Cards and Postcards from MOO.
MOO first caught his eye at his university degree show, where he noticed that all the students’ cutest promo materials were produced by the …Continue reading this article…
In many company blogs, marketing teams often have lots to say (or at least, they’re pretty hard to keep quiet). With MOO this isn’t always the case – our customers usually give the rest of the team so much to blog about, we barely get a look in.
One marketing ‘channel’ (yes, sorry, some marketing buzzwords and jargon coming up) that has given us lots to talk about over the last year however, is events and trade-shows. MOO has visited Austin, Boston, Las Vegas, London, New York, Providence, San Diego, and we are at Washington DC this week. In total we have spoken to tens of thousands of photographers, graphic designers, artists, fashion designers, students and more. We have …Continue reading this article…
After giving you the story behind Perch’s MiniCards, we thought we should catch up with photographer, Simon Warren. Also featured on our MiniCards page, he’s been taking advantage of the latest features and comparing them with the larger Business Cards he’s been using (and loving) for a while. Here’s what he had to say:
Simon Warren is one of the UK’s top location photographers. He’s been using MOO’s Business Cards to showcase his outstanding graphic images: bold exteriors, sleek interiors, arresting construction shots and more.
Though happy with the size and scope of the Business Cards, he’s recently been experimenting with MiniCards, with positive results.
A hardcore Business Card fan, Simon was initially worried by the …Continue reading this article…
As you are probably aware, Royal Mail have scheduled further strikes this week. Please note this only affects “Standard” delivery to UK addresses, not Express.
Local delivery services and the sorting office at Royal Mail HQ will be closed this Thursday, Friday and Saturday. We want to make sure that your order doesn’t get caught in the backlog and we have some alternatives for you to think about when placing your order.
Express
At checkout, you can choose our Express service. This is a guaranteed, signed for service, which is totally unaffected by the strikes. UK Express starts at £10 and is definitely value for money. You will be able to track the delivery online and the service is 1-3 days …Continue reading this article…
As you know, we’ve updated the features on MiniCards. You can upload an image for the front and the back – and there are some other neat features too. On the MiniCards page, you’ll find some images of real cards. Ones our customers have made – like these, from Perch:
We contacted Perch after seeing their cards at dConstruct, a conference in Brighton. We liked them so much, we wondered what they’d do with the new features we had planned for MiniCards. The cards above are the ones they made, and this is the story behind them.
Perch is a “really little” content management system. (Their words, not ours!) It’s designed to be …Continue reading this article…
You’ve been asking for improvements on our first ever product and we’re excited to say they’re finally here. MOO MiniCards now offer even more creative possibilities – and some of your most requested features.
There’s now the option to choose from a bigger range of fonts, colours and templates to personalise the ‘details side’ of your cards. We’ve also added the option to upload your own logo, or choose an icon from our brand new selection.
Want to upload an entire image for the details side of the card? No problem. Just like our larger Business Cards, you can now upload a full JPEG or PDF.
At the end of the process check your cards (text and images) on a …Continue reading this article…
Some subjects lend themselves naturally to MiniCards and Business Cards – what could be more tempting than a picture of, say, a tin of sweeties, or a delicate filigree necklace? And other subjects are little more challenging. Like, for example, mathematics. How do you promote yourself when you’re a Cambridge-educated maths genius with a clutch of degrees and a bundle of prizes to your name? How to stop people going “Ew, maths – boring!” and trying to run away when you start talking about what you do?
Matthew Handy knows how. He’s a private maths teacher, providing tuition to individuals and small groups to help them pass their Maths and Further Maths A-levels. He helps …Continue reading this article…
