Ink Business Preferred Credit Card

The Chase Ink Business Preferred offers one of the best sign-up bonuses in the game - 100,000 points after $8,000 in spend. For small business owners, the 3x on advertising, shipping, and internet makes this incredibly valuable. The points can be combined with personal Sapphire cards. I highly recommend this for anyone with a side business, even if it's just selling on eBay or driving for Uber.
