A well-designed business card should always capture the eye and make a positive first impression on potential customers. Your Business card not only represents your business but also adds a Strong character and identity to it.

The better the image in the mind of the clients, the higher the chance of your brand getting registered in their minds. 

Here are a set of seven points jotted down for you to take care of while designing your professional business card design in Calgary

1 - The Key Details 

Begin by defining the information you want to put on your business card. We suggest including your name, phone number, and email address as a basic minimum. Also, you may put in your social media usernames, locations, and other relevant information. Make sure that whatever information you want to add is simple to understand for the client.

2 - Keep It Consistent 

Ensure the colour, logos, and fonts you use on your business card are consistent with the rest of your brand. This constancy will ensure that your business card looks professional and makes the impact you desire! It should be Elegant and easy to understand. 

  1. Get Creative 

The more unique your business card is, the better; you might include a loyalty scheme or provide clients who present their card a special discount. 

4 - The Small Things 

Make sure your business card is clear and easy to read and that your artwork has a 300 DPI (Dots Per Inch) resolution when you send it to us for printing. Ensure that any fonts you've used in the design have been flattened as well. Because printing isn't an exact science, you should leave a 3mm margin of error around the edge of the business card (known as a bleed).

5 - Double-Check 

Nothing is more unpleasant than having a wonderful design for your business card and sending it off to the printer only to discover a fault. Ensure you go through everything with a fine-toothed comb to ensure all details are correct.

6 - Quality Matters 

It's pointless to design a great business card to have it spoilt by poor printing or low-quality paper.

7 - Finishing Touches:

Using a special finish on your business card is a smart approach to create an immediate impact. Spot UV, foil blocking, and metallic inks are examples of these. This might increase the cost of your business card, but they also make it more visually pleasing and memorable, making it less likely that your potential client would rip it up.

These were the seven points that you need to lay stress on while designing a business card for your business setup. High-quality print is necessary to justify your high-end design elements.
