Business cards are an essential part of every business person’s arsenal. You have to have a business card ready to hand to anyone who might be a potential customer. Ideally, each business card will bring you an extra sale (or ten). However, that will only happen if your business card is effective, and it can only be effective if you make it better than the zillions of others out there.
Let us go through the process of designing your business card, step by step.

When used effectively business cards can be a great marketing tool. In this article we will discuss 5 of the most effective ways that you can use your business cards everyday.
1. Be Creative.
Be creative in the design of your business cards. Business cards do not just need to be bits of paper with your contact details on them. Be creative and give your business cards a use and purpose. Make them a powerful marketing tool in the promotion of your business.
Your aim is to make your business card something that the receiver will want to keep and make use of. This is the difference between a well thought out and designed business card and a piece of paper with your contact details on it that will probably be thrown into the trash.
Give the recipient of your business cards a special offer. For example if you are a school/training centre you may offer ‘first lesson for free with this card’ or if you run a shop maybe you will offer ‘10% of any purchase over $50′. Continue reading →

Here I have 3 well executed business card designs by graphic and web designer Jakub Kr?má? aka „whitwa”. They aren’t anything you would say “Wow!” to, but they work well for their own reasons.
This quite creative business card design is simple yet elegant and brand-friendly. It seems like he hasn’t much information on it, yet everything needed is there. He maximized the space and focus by using both sides and throwing away all of the unnecessary information(address, fax, etc). The result: everything is easily readable and isn’t lost in loads of information.
This not very unique business card has other strong sides. First this cards owner is a candidate for senate, so his face is his brand and it is very well featured here. Other thing I like is that he has included his “sales pitch”, election promises, on the other side of the card, very handy when you’re thinking about who to vote for.
Minimalistic business card for a hosting company. Name, catch phrase and a website, that’s it. The potential client can find all of the other information on the website. The client will need to visit it anyway, so why not leave the only contact information he’ll really need and make it several times more visible and powerful? Remember: Every bit of unnecessary information takes away attention and power from the necessary info.
