When you hand out your business cards, you want them to be kept! Here are some tips to help you design a businss card that will be an attention getter. (From an article by Carly Price in Instore Magazine, May/June, 2007).
- Create a business card that incorporates your logo. While you will incur some costs to have a logo designed for your business, this is something that you can use on all your marketing materials. Your personalized logo will help set you apart from other gift basket businesses.
- Think carefully about the colors that you use on your business card. There is a “psychology” to color! Some colors attact the eye more than others. Certain colors evoke positive emotions and reactions. Read this for more information about how color affects us.
- Don’t clutter your card! Make sure that important information such as your business name, address and phone number is clearly visible and easy to read.

The contact information on the card is even more important than the logo. I’ve had more than one experience of wanting to contact someone and discovered that there was no address or phone number on the business card.
Designers who attend many tradeshows may even want to consider a “quick and dirty” business card for handing out to vendors only. This card should be have a professional look, of course, but should include ample contact information. In addiion to the basics, this card could also list your URL, email address, fax number, Dun and Bradstreet number and whatever other info vendors request frequently.
