Moleskine Business Card Hack

December 13, 2004

Sure, you could keep a few business cards in the expandable pocket of your ‘Skine, but how many can you really stuff down in there before the load balancing hack stops working-two, three, maybe four?

It has always seemed to me that the point of my ‘Skine, being that it is really my mobile office, was to be efficient and useful. Four business cards just isn’t enough, and I have to keep my ‘Skine at a certain thickness otherwise my ass goes numb and that ruins the rest of my day. So I came up with a way to get thirty, dual-purpose, business cards in my Moleskine and keep the damage to my butt nerves to a minimum.

I use the software that came with the labels, you can download it from the Avery web site, to create a template and then I print off as many sheets I need for the day.

When someone asks for a card, I pull one off and stick it in their day planner. Or maybe I need to leave them a note; I scribble a note on some paper and stick it to their door with on of the business cards.Label8060Fullpage.png

The really cool thing about this hack is that you can get Avery labels in millions of different sizes so you can make a label to fit just about any need.
