Everyone in business has a business card. The back side of the card is typically left blank. What if on the back of a realtor's card for instance there is a restaurant ad on the reverse side of it. The restaurant would pay a small flat fee per business card to the person giving out their cards to have it's coupon/info on the back side. Alot of sales people go through a bunch of business cards without anything coming from it. At least they can make a small fee by giving out their card with a completely unrelated business on the back side of it. I would think it is a win-win situation for the sales person as well as the advertiser on the back of the card. What do you think?

If they can both agree to it, maybe.

But it is cheesy IMO, and takes away from possibly useful blank space.

Mr. Classicat,If it is a last resort to make living YES. Otherwise

Whenever you go for a business, you must only concentrate that business and mean that business only.

I think it could be very beneficial in certain situations. Ex: Co-op marketing; strategic partnerships - Photographers and DJ's - Florists and Event Planners, hell, event planners and anything associated with the event. Not necissarily using it as a form of revenue, rather, use it to help build business opportunities for two companies.
