Thick, premium business cards are a classic printed advertising material that has been used by entrepreneurs for the longest time. They are still effective today and there is nothing wrong with sticking with a classic – but how about giving it a bit of a modern touch? Doing so will allow you to keep up with the ever-changing business environment while also reaching out to a younger clientele. Here, we will be counting down the ways by which you can modernize the classic business cards:
- Order business cards online.
Instead of calling or visiting, you can simply browse through the website of your preferred printing company. There are two kinds of printers available: digital and offset. As compared to digital printing, offset printers are larger and offer up to eight times better print quality. When you order business cards online, you can upload your own design to the website. There are also printing companies which give you the option to download templates for free, or have a professional graphic designer check the quality of your own design. After the design is finalized, you can choose your size and material options, the speed of delivery, make the payment, and wait for the cards to be delivered straight to your doorstep.
Distribute business cards for a cause.
It’s important for business owners to be socially responsible. No matter how big or small an organization you are, you can volunteer or support a specific cause – and distribute business cards while you’re at it.
- Go interactive!
If you want, you can incorporate a scannable QR code in the design of your card. Once the code is scanned, it will take the user automatically to your website, or give them special discounts for the products or services you’re offering.
- Be creative when designing the card.
When you print business cards, it is very important to be creative in the design. You can customize your own font, incorporate your logo, use hand-drawn illustrations, or use rounded-corner instead of rectangular cards. Make sure to print the cards in thick paper that screams quality, and the print itself should be professional-looking.
By incorporating these modern twists in the design, you can come up with business cards that you will be very proud to hand over to your clients.
