1. Don’t opt for a cheap method for designing your card. It will create a wrong impression about your business to your first time customers or clients. Hence, by going cheap you are not doing any kind of favor to yourself. Chances are that you are missing out on opportunities which ultimately could have helped you to enhance your scope in your business.
2. Take help from professional designers to design your business card, unless you can enough to design it yourself, and give all the important details in it. Design it in such a way that it can create a positive impact about your business in the clients’ minds.
3. Try to keep your business card simple. The conventional size of a business card is 3.5″x 2″, so hardly there remains space to work on. So one has to put information very judiciously so it doesn’t look clumsy. Don’t make the logo too big. And keep the size of the type in such a size that it becomes comfortably legible. Keep good extent of white space.
4. For making your business card memorable to the clients, you can design it in round, oval or any other shape instead of the conventional rectangular shape. But you must keep in mind that round or other shaped cards won’t fit in a regular rectangular card holder.
5. Only give important information on the card like your name, company name, company logo, phone, fax and mobile numbers, email address, company’s website address, your company’s address. A simple and clean card is always desired. So don’t use all the white space. And try to keep the back of the card absolutely clean with only the main tagline of your company.
6. You can consider using membership card software to design such cards. There are a lot of professional membership card software’s that are used to create ID cards for your business and for managing the organization. Membership Card Maker is one such software which can create a multi layered membership card.
7. Businessmen use loyalty programs to make the clients and the customers to get back to their business all the time. In America if a business person is into marketing more than 65%, then he is possibly using loyalty program. While designing your own business ID card you can use loyalty program software for creating a feeling of loyalty in the hearts of your customers.
