3 Business Card Tips

1. Use front and back! – I’m still amazed that ever so often I see graphic designers only have their design printed on one of the sides and not the other. You’re job is to promote yourself as much as possible, imagine doubling your promotion just for an extra $30? (That is how much it costs to add the back)

2. The benefits! – Even though most people who meet up with graphic designers are very polite, in there mind they all think of one thing, “How will this graphic designer benefit me?” so in your business card make sure to include a tag line or a list, make sure you have it and make sure it gives the benefits onto why it would benefit the customer working with you.

3. The secret law of 7! – Did you know that in order to get into a habit of something a person needs to do it 21 times? Did you also know that it takes around 7 times for a person to view your identity before they make any business with you? In case you haven’t figured it out, your identity is your logo, so make sure to have a logo your business card. Try to make it high on the business card and either on the right or the left corner. When the person puts it into the wallet they only see the top of it. When the person takes out the business card they grab it in the center leaving the sides exposed to them.

Also, did you ever wonder how much graphic designers get paid? How much does a website cost? Or the most common mistakes novice graphic designers make that you should stay away from?
