What Not to Do with Your Business Cards
When it comes to business cards, knowing what not to do is just as important as knowing what to do. Here are some common pitfalls to avoid:
Avoid Using 'Free Business Cards'
Many companies offer "free" business cards by putting their logo on the back of yours. While this may save you money, it can give the impression of being cheap and unprofessional. Would you wear a business suit with a fast-food logo on it? Probably not, so apply the same logic to your business cards.
Skip the Templates
Online templates might seem convenient, but they often result in generic cards that fail to stand out. Invest in a custom design that reflects your unique brand and acts as an effective marketing tool.
Ensure Readable Text
Not everyone has perfect vision, so design your business cards with readability in mind. Avoid using tiny fonts that require a magnifying glass to read.
Choose Colors Wisely
Colors that clash can be an eyesore and difficult to read. Use a color wheel or online resources to find harmonious combinations that are easy on the eyes.
Use Your Own Cards
Never scribble your details on someone else’s business card or a card with incorrect information. This can appear unprofessional and careless. Always have an adequate supply of your own cards.
Double-Check for Errors
Proofreading is crucial. Errors on business cards can mislead your contacts and lead to lost opportunities. Triple-check before printing to ensure accuracy.
Stick to Standard Sizes
While a larger card might seem like a good idea to stand out, it can be impractical. Oversized cards may not fit in wallets or standard cardholders. Keep to the standard size for convenience.
Consider Material Quality
Don’t overlook the importance of quality paper. Thin, flimsy cards can give a cheap impression and wear quickly. Choose at least 250GSM paper with a laminate or coating to ensure durability.
Opt for Professional Printing
Home-printed cards often look amateurish. Professional printing is affordable and significantly enhances the appearance and impact of your business cards.
By steering clear of these common mistakes, you can ensure your business cards leave a strong, positive impression.
