$15 for $45 Worth of Custom-Printing Services

Out of a small French apartment in the mid '90s, Vistaprint started out focusing on supplying small businesses with modest quantities of customizable marketing materials. By 1999, it had evolved into an Internet-based company armed with patented online graphic-design tools and a printing process engineered to quickly produce small orders of custom business cards, eventually calibrating its three manufacturing facilities to produce a bounty of other customizable goodies. Today, the company's arsenal of web-based design tools allows users to add personalized text, photos, and designs to thousands of templates for items ranging from cards to T-shirts.
