The Importance of the Design
You want a business card that stands out, but you also don’t want to clutter it with images or too much information. The saying “less is more” holds true for business cards. Sometimes simply designed cards stand out more than others. One way this can be done is using a few contrasting colors to make certain aspects of your business cards pop out to the eye. Another design element is to create a unique shape or design, such as our die cut business cards. These business cards allow you to take a simple shape and make it stand out.
Your Business Card Should Contain the Following Information:
Your Name: Even if you’re working for a company who has cards that have the general office information, you should always ensure that your name is on the card as well. When you hand your card to someone and give them a good impression, they’ll want to contact you personally so this information is important.
Title: Just as important as your name is a title. This information can be your position or a short description of what you do. This allows persons to know exactly your role at the business in a convenient way and as such they can know how you can assist them.
Contact Information: The contact information is as important as an eye-catching design. You’ll want to give the person you hand your card to as many ways as possible to reach you if they’re interested in your product or service. The contact information can include the following:
· Business Phone Number
· Cellphone Number
· Email Address
· Fax Number
· Social Media Contact Information
