Great idea Michelle. This is Sukosh Fearon and up in upstate New York we we
like the longer and lengthier paper for our menus. At least I due and I think
you get more bang for your buck with an 11 by 12 size. But some like the more
sedate size but for the beefier paper fora man's man menu 11 by 12 is better in
my estimation.
As for business cards. 3 by 5 or 4 by 6, that's a toss up. The best of luck.
i'd have another job going while you start this one off. If you're
starting a cottage industry business you don't want to live in a tent. The
best of luck and the best every day. Keep your margins tight and your prices
fair.

Great idea Michele;
Paper about the size of typewriter paper, 8.5/11 would be the best. It
would be easier to handle at the table and also be able to be stored
with the regular menus. Red Lobster has one with a plastic spiral
binding a clear plastic cover and a raised diagram, I think, like on the
menu.
Braille business cards sound great. Let us know if you get started
before National convention. I need some cards to use at conventions.

Subject: [Braillenote] Embosser Choice
Hi listers. I am thinking of starting a business for transcribing
Braille menus and possibly Braille business cards and the like. I
currently have a BrailleNote Classic but will be upgrading to an Mpower
shortly.
For such an undertaking, what would be the best choice of embosser?
Should I stick to one which only embosses a4 size paper? How would you
Braille readers like to have menus set out, in compact a4, or on the
bigger paper? I also need to take into consideration that I'll probably
be working from home so size and cost will be an issue. Any ideas would
be most welcome.
A merry Christmas to you all
Michele and guide dog Rush
