The main reason I suggested the ink first is that, supposedly, as a business card, it doesn't count against your 5/24 status, although it is affected by it. So if you're 0/24 then get the ink, you're still technically 0/24...but when I called to ask the rep about it before applying for my sapphire (I was either at 3/24 or 4/24 at the time depending on how my Ink was considered, and I was deciding whether to apply for the sapphire next or another card), ultimately I was told that the ink would count against my 5/24. Not sure if it's cuz it is a Chase card so even though it's not on your personal credit report (being a business card), they still know about it, or what, but they told me it would count.
But either way, being at 0/24, it doesn't really matter. Go ahead and get the sapphire first if you have a more pertinent use for it.
