Here are three common mistakes we have learned to avoid when designing business cards:
- Too Much Information. When it comes to business card design, brevity is key. You only need to include the most important information about yourself and your business, without cluttering up the design with extraneous details. Include your name, job title, company name, contact information, and your most relevant social media handles. You can also include your website or a QR code that links to your site.
- Poor Quality Materials. Another mistake we often see with business card design has to do with selecting the wrong cardstock, ink, and other printing materials. You want your business card to look and feel great, so we recommend springing for high-quality cardstock as well as printing to create a card that feels luxurious. You can elevate the design of your card even further with things like foil or satin finishes.
- Generic Visuals. Lastly, it’s a mistake to use generic imagery in your business card design. Instead, make sure all the branding on your card is bespoke and unique to your business. Our team can create the perfect brand identity to showcase your business, and we can include business card design in that brand integration.
