When starting up a new venture, it's important to have the important things worked out before you need them - like ordering business cards, for example. Before ordering business cards, consider this as an opportunity to create a lasting impression as a small business or professional. Consider investing in heavier cardstock for your card so that the people you give it to, whether it's a business associate, friend, or family member, will find it impressive. In addition to cardstock, consider the affect typefaces, styles, and colors will have on the people you give your card. The key is to find a balance between standing out from the rest of the business people, while still remaining professional and impressive. To do this you might select a few fonts that aren't usually seen all that often. This will help you stand out. That said, the font should still look solid and professional, otherwise you risk leaving the wrong impression. Once you have a few fonts, consider testing them out visually on a mock up card - you may find that one font works for the main title, but not elsewhere. Once you have your initial font design down, think about color schemes. Though adding multiple colors will increase the amount of your cost, the final print will stand out tremendously from the majority of black and white business cards. Graphics can further sets cards apart as they pop visually. If you've designed a logo for your business, add it to your business card. |
