Printed Business Cards

Do you want your business card to be memorable? If the answer to that is obviously “yes,” you may want to consider trying out a custom design for your business card. Custom designs range from foil accents to glossy card stock and they can really make a card stand out from the crowd. Whether you are in a competitive field or just looking to get new customers interested in purchasing your goods or services, a little “extra” never hurts.

Custom designed cards have a more upscale look to them than the average versions. This automatically puts your business in a category of its own when people first see the card. Things that can give a business card this type of feel include vertical design, paper stock and various foil applications.

Vertical design simply has to do with where your information is located on the card. Typically, business cards read horizontally, but vertical positioning is also an option. Text and logo placement can be a little bit more challenging with this type of design, but ultimately it makes the card stand out from others that are more common looking.

Opting for glossy paper stock is another way to make your card shine–literally. Glossy stock simply means there is a gloss finish to the card stock instead of a matte look. This can add allure to a card with a photograph or give a little zing to a card that only features text.

Foil is another way to add a custom touch to your business card. This metallic-looking material can be applied to certain areas to add emphasis, such as your name, company name or a logo. Foil makes colors look more vibrant and gives a totally different look to the card. It works best with colors that aren’t especially dark, so you may want to take that into consideration when deciding if it is a direction you want to go. The good news is that with us, adding the foil accents will not increase your turnaround time.

Making your business card look unique is one good way to get people to notice your company. Take a few minutes to see if any of our custom design options can work well with what you have in mind. You don’t have to go with a custom card, but it is definitely an option worthy of at least a little bit of consideration.
