3 Tips to stop potential clients throwing your business card in the bin

May 7th, 2008 by Lee

Designing your own business card can sometimes be a very awkward process, as you want to send out the right message to potential clients and tell them exactly what you do, but at the same time you have to keep it simple and not overwhelm your potential client with to much information and leave them with no clue on what exactly your business is about. Here are some tips that you should follow to make a perfect business card:

  1. Always include your name, address, phone number(s) & email, this will allow potential clients to contact you.
  2. Try to sum up your business in 4-5 words, people don’t want to be confused as to who they got the card from they want to know exactly what your company does and if you cant sum it up in a few words then try harder.
  3. Add something a little different, a business card should stand out, because if you are handing them out chances are that someone else has handed him a card maybe with the same service, who do you think the client will call? the one with the business card that is plain & boring? i think not the first call will most likely go to the coolest business card
