How to Design Your Own Business Card

Buying business cards can be expensive and a hassle, especially if the printer gets it wrong! Instead of buying them, why don't you make your own? It's easy and much cheaper.

Most office supply stores carry everything you need, except your imagination!

  • Always make your name or your business name prominent. When you hand someone your card, you want them to see your name and remember it. Try using raised letters.
  • Design a logo to place on your card. It can relate to your business or just be something you really like.
  • Make sure your card looks professional. When selecting card stock material, make sure it's sturdy and durable. You don't want a card that looks cheap or one that ink will smear on when you design it. Office supply stores will carry a large selection of business cards for your computer. Just take your time and find one that's nice.
  • Be different, but practical. You don't want an odd shaped business card that a potential client will toss aside because it won't fit in their wallet. Try choosing a card that's slightly colored.
  • When you design your card, always remember to put the important things on it; like your phone number, email address, physical address and if you have a website, include it also

Just a few ideas to get your business off and rolling, you don't need to spend lots of money when you can do it yourself! Have fun, be creative!
