Letterhead & Business Cards

In an effort to keep costs down and provide you with the best possible services and products, the Society of Certified Senior Advisors (SCSA) will no longer be offering business cards and letterhead through the CSA Store.  This is due to an increase in our costs, which are then passed on to you. 

Instead we have put together a guide and the tools you will need in order to create and order your own professional business materials.  Many online services offer competitive rates, a full service staff, and a range of products to choose from. 

The first step is to decide on a printing service.  Below is a table listing several recommended services and their features. In addition, your local FedEx Kinkos and other such printing offices can provide immediate business card and letterhead services. As a note, SCSA uses America’s Printer for all their brochures and direct mail pieces.

In case you are unfamiliar with ordering business materials online, we’ve outlined a few helpful tips below.

  1. Get The CSA Logo or Letterhead Template:
    1. You may need to download the CSA logos or a professional CSA letterhead template for printing on your materials.   
    2. Go to the Member Resources section and click on the General CSA Resources page. You will see a variety of logo and letterhead options.  For the best print quality, use the EPS file versions.
    3. Save these files in a folder on your desktop or somewhere you will remember. 

  2. Printing Via An Online Vendor:
    1. Log on to your print vendor’s website, most of them will have you create a free online account.
    2. Choose the products you would like to have printed.  Most companies can provide you with a physical or electronic sample if you ask! 
    3. Once you have decided on a product and begin the ordering process, it will ask you to upload your logo or file. 
    4. Click the Browse button they provide and find the logos that you downloaded and choose which one you will be using.  The site will then usually upload this and you can see the upload process on your screen.
    5. Continue to complete the other business information you want on the materials and finalize the item(s).   
    6. Once you submit your order it will ask you to provide an email or other information for them to send you an electronic proof.  Make sure to provide accurate information and watch for the proof email to come through.  Most online companies will NOT print and ship your materials without proof approval.

  3. Printing Via A Physical Store

When choosing to go into a local store to have items printed, simply save the logos and letterhead onto a USB flash drive and take into a store.  The employees there can then just upload your logo files and work with you face to face to create your product.

Important Note:
Please follow all state and industry advertising regulations.  Please use the CSA disclosure statement, “Certified Senior Advisors (CSAs) have supplemented their individual professional licenses, credentials, and education with knowledge about aging and working with seniors. The CSA designation alone does not imply expertise in financial, health or social matters. For details, visit www.csa.us.” as directed in the CSA Code of Professional Responsibility.  If you would like your proof reviewed by our Compliance Department before printing, please send the proof to breannm@csa.us for consideration.
