    Default New Business Card

    Just finished designing my new business card. What does everyone think?





    Also would I be able to get some quotes for printing? I would like to have a sample copy printed and sent to me before I go through with printing if possible. I'm looking for probably 500.

    Can you put your request for printing in the Get Quotes forum?

    Thanks

    good card.

    if it were me i would try to range the right hand edge of the roundel with the "i" of design and reduce in pro to tighten everything up.

    Nice design.

    On the front i would try to get the end of your url not to pass over the background logo image.

    It's only a pixel or 2 but looks good.

    Well Done

    It looks nice but it doesn't say anything about your service which business cards rarely do, but that's a wasted opportunity to advertise.

    Some people have dozens of cards handed to them and so reminding them who you are via details of your service or offers, testimonials etc is absolutely essential if you want your business card to generate a new lead.

    Consider your client may have 10 business cards like this?

    I don't know what you're selling from this.


    As an example.

    I left a business card with a client and one month later he called me. He knew what I sold, not via my business name (it wasn't the one promoted on here via my signature) but by the fact my services were detailed on the card. He didn't recall me, as we never spoke before. I merely left my card on his counter one day.

    You'll be amazed what info these small cards can hold that help generate a lead.

    On the reverse for example.. have a testimonial
    On the front - your contact details and short line stating that you do graphic website design , logo design etc.

    Looking pretty won't get you a sale if no one knows what the heck you sell.

    'FOD design' could relate to design of farm equipment for all the recipient knows.

    I know most people hand these cards out after an introduction, but months down the line and several introductions from other later the deliverer of that card and their service is perhaps forgotten.

    My advice to anyone is to use that business card as a marketing tool and to advertise on it.
