Thread: Creative Business Card Ideas

    Honestly it depends on what industry you are really in. Business cards are really less useful as they use to be. Have you looked into Microsoft Tag? I am sure you have seen them, they are those little square pictures you can take pictures on your phone or mobile device and it will link you to a website or video. I would suggest making your card fancy and put your basic info on it but then add a tag to the corner or back that links you to your company website. That way anyone anywhere can look at your website and view all of your information! You can give much more doing that then what any card can hold. Plus the tag is free to create!

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks Tyler. I didn't know. I've got to look into that.

    There are are several ways to stand out among other business cards. One way is by having a plastic business card. If you haven't seen one they are really cool, and if you think about it they are easy to pick out in a stack of business cards because they are a little thicker. Another way is to have the plastic be transparent. So not only does the card stand out because it's plastic, but because you can see through it. The last thing I would suggest is by having it be a little different shape than the original rectangular card shape. It catches the eyes attention because it is uniquely shaped.

    Keep your brand in mind and try to make one that totally screams your company. One really neat card I have seen was a see through, yet sturdy card for Minus 5.. a bar made completely out of ice. They made the card look like a little piece of ice. It was really neat!!

    That's pretty cool and looking at the card naturally reminds you right away of the bar. You shouldn't even need to read it to remember the place. That's a card that quickly communicates the experience of the business at a glance.

    It took me several tries on getting a business card that I liked. I finally designed on myself on line but they didn't look like what I had designed. I had marked the review box, so I was able to send them back and reorder, and the lady I spoke to made some suggestions to make them better. My card had my business name on the top of the card in bold, on the line under that the services I offer. Then my contact info and website. I also included a picture of myself on the left side of the card. I am happy with the card. And the card itself has a blue vertical line going down the left side of the card which is the same color as my website.

    Use a QR Code, to collect contact information, and to automatically store your number in their phone! You can also send them to a video introduction of yourself.

    my business cards carry my details on one side and a list of services and my prices on the other. adding the prices makes your business cards have less of a shelf life as youd need to change them when u change your prices but it really helps with word of mouth.
