Go to www.godaddy.com and play with domain names...mami&davebuyhouses.commamibuyshomes.comIf you can find a "cutesy" one that is easy to remember... register it, then use that same tag to get an email address from one of the free providers.When you have the domain and the e-mail address to receive, then get business cards.At that point you will have the contact info required for the card and you can get a website later.It's not about having a card, it's about establishing an identity long term.Go on the internet and download a business plan template...
