Business Card Designs

Offering organically grown produce using sustainable farming methods is a growing and successful industry. The successful organic grower utilizes the business card for both contact information and business promotion.

The organic grower’s business card should be printed on recycled paper and this should be stated on the business card. Despite being a great way to promote a greener sustainable lifestyle, using recycled paper for the business cards shows potential clients that the grower is ethical and consistent, both important aspects of the organic grower’s business reputation. Along the same lines, soy based inks are preferred over traditional inks for the printing process.

Choose a thick textured card for your organic grower’s business card. Thick card reminds people of a state of permanence and reliability. It also gives your business card a longer life span. Consider adding a set of magnetized business cards to your order list to improve the chances of business card survival.

Be sure to clearly state location and contact information for your farm on your organic grower’s business card. The majority of people are not countryside savvy and can easily confuse one farm for another. Give clear detailed directions and contact information on your card. Use simple to read fonts in black, dark blue or brown ink for easy reading.

Use the back side of the organic grower’s business card for listing the types of products offered and any details such as seasonal schedules and rates. Don’t overcrowd the back side of the business card. Use a bullet format or column spacing to keep the information easy to read.  Be sure to replace the cards each year to keep the information as fresh as your produce.

Distribute organic grower business cards to area grocers, health food stores, and sustainable vendors. Be sure to include at least one card in every bag or box of produce you sell and use the word of mouth system to let people know about your green business. Give extra cards to anyone who expresses an interest in telling friends about your business.
