What Are the Best Business Card Design Practices

Several guidelines need to be followed as you create your own custom business cards. You can hire a professional designer to make sure all the basic rules are covered. However, an ambitious entrepreneur shouldn’t be afraid to think out of the box.

Here are a few rules you can follow as you think about what to put on a business card.

  • Short, sweet, and simple. A card provides limited space to make a good and lasting impression. Only show the most important contact information and make the text readable. Your logo should stand out but not take up all the space.
  • Keep your clients in mind. While a standard business card is easy to give out and receive, the design itself should showcase what you can do. Create a look that appeals to your customers.
  • Take calculated risks. Whether you’re an industry veteran or a start up success, your company can’t risk fading into the background. Add an extra feature such as an embossed text or pick your own custom shape.

The business card design should be placed within three lines that guide how the material is cut. Our available layout templates already include these lines. But those who want to start from scratch need to create a design within the following standard guidelines:

  • Safety Line is placed around the actual business card design, particularly your logo, contact information, etc.
  • Trim Area is the area between the bleed line and safety line. This provides additional room for cutting the business card.
  • Bleed Line refers to the edge of your business card file. The background of your design should go all the way up to this area to prevent the appearance of a white border.

Q:
Do you have Real Estate sample business cards?
Asked 4 months ago by Ervin V.
A:

We dont have actual samples to give out. However, if you use the "Create Your Design Online", there are templates on how to set up your business cards in terms of layout. Then you can filter the stock images for Real Estate related images which you can insert to create your final design. There is a small fee for use of the stock images as these are copy righted. 

Q:
I have ordered from you before I would like to keep the same
Asked 4 months ago by Gordon K.
A:

If you can still access your account online, you can reorder your business cards from 2019. Luckily, we still have the files. If you are having trouble accessing your account, please give us a call and the Customer Service Representative will assist you in reordering.  

Q:
Where do I place my photo
Asked 5 months ago by Gemma K.
A:

You would basically need to lay out your artwork and upload it to our site for printing so it would be up to you where you want it placed. You can use Photoshop or any other Design Application. You also have an option to use our easy-to-use Online Design Tool. After configuring your specifications on the product page, you just need to click on the "Create your Design Online" link and insert all your text and images. Once you are done, save the design and order.

Q:
How do I include the QR code? Is it extra cost?
Asked 5 months ago by Karen E.
A:

Once you have a saved file of your QR Code, you may actually use the "Create Your Design Online" link to create your business card design and insert the QR code. After you are satisfied with the final design, you just need to save and place the order. Make sure to scan the QR code to see if it works properly.

Q:
Foil lamination — Do you print under the foil or can you print on the foil as well? I have a design with a bar that mimics metallic silver (rectangle) but includes solid black lettering on the top. The rest of the card is full color printing.
Asked 6 months ago by Jennifer H.
A:

The lamination will come after the printing. Based on your description, please check out our Foil Business Cards. You just need to indicate using another layer on your artwork, whch parts you need to have a foil effect.
