Whenever I see an icthus fish on billboards of local business or in restaurants, I'm encouraged to go. I know they are Christian people, and I think they are likely to be honest people. Whenever I see it on restaurant, I figure the kitchen is clean.
But that's me. I've actually heard many times other people saying it's ridiculous to have the fish on their ads and establishments.
I starting my own business, should I include the icthus fish on me business cards and office?

It depends. *some* people have been screwed by so-called "christian businessmen" to the point where they've gotten a bad connotation. "Yeah, I'm a Christian!" and then overcharge 'em bc people trust them. So... my dad has a business, and he's a Christian.. but he doesn't advertise it. People will figure it out anyway.
On the other hand, you could be blessed for owning up to being a Christian up front.
short answer: it's up to you.

Personally I find them immensly annoying and a waste of space on the cards/advertisement/signs.
It often puts off anyone who isn't of that religion and you'd potentially loose business.
Your actions and ethics will say more to people than a fish image, and come across stronger without offending anyone.
