Critique My Postcard

[Eric H.]

Last chance to make changes before my first 1000 go out what do you all think? 14 pt color and gloss front and back. What do you like? What do you hate? and why? Thanks in advance!

Graphically this is obnoxious.  You should review your companies graphic branding policy or create one.  Yes, you got peoples attention but for the wrong reasons I feel.  This may have more of negative impact then you may think.  There is no sense of elegance or look professional.  Way too many colors going.  If I got this at home I would think the circus is coming to town and trash it. To this says this guy doesn't know what he is doing because it lacks professionalism in design. I don't know you but I bet you know what you are doing and a competent person.   Ask your self is this what I want people to think of my company?  I wouldn't.  I am not trying to be rude but graphically it needs a make over.  As for the content on it; I will let other chime in as this it out of my realm.  

I would start googling and see what graphics you can find.  Google key words: "postcard graphic design real estate" incase the link doesn't work.

Yes you can use a bold colors but not so many of them at once. Think of the ones you  have seen or received and you liked.  Now days branding is key!  Create a brand and let the brand work for you.  Be simple, be consistent.  Does your business card match your flyer, your postcard, your letter head, or your website?  Find a college graphic designer to design something for you for cheap option.
