Business cards are a tried-and-true method. Whenever you meet someone, it is important to have a business card you can conveniently hand to a new or potential business contact. If your card looks unprofessional however, people may unfortunately negatively judge both you and your business and throw away the card as quickly as they receive it.
This is why getting your business card right is so important. Here are some factors you’ll want to consider before you have the next batch of your cards designed, developed and printed out:
Card size
Too small and your card could easily get lost. Too big will not make it easy to carry around. So you will want to choose the right size if you don’t want your cards to end up in the bin.
Colors
Don’t forget to match the colors with the colors associated with your brand and company. Your cards must reflect the personality of your business, whether it is serious, edgy or playful. Also, you do not have to use all the colors in your logo or brand either. You could go with a dominant color and use that as an accent in your card.
Text
It is important not to make it difficult for people to read the text on your business card. No one wants to squint their eyes every time they read the text on your card. Make the text large enough so they will not have any issues reading it.
Quality
Ensure there are not smudges in the final printed versions of the card. Proofread the text to make sure there are no errors before you give the printing company the go-signal to print the rest.
Printing
Lastly, it is necessary to hire a competent and trustworthy printing service for your business cards. Go with a company that offers great services and quality at fair rates. This is the way to get the best value for your money.
