Let’s say you’ve just started your own business and so far, it’s doing pretty well. Tons of people have been asking you for business cards but you don’t have any yet. When you go to get some, should you order cheap ones or more expensive ones that are better quality? You may not realize it but there are so many options when it comes to business cards that can set you apart from your competitors. There are various choices to choose from such as shapes, paper type, sizes, materials, foils, colors, and a million more. 

First Impressions Matter

When presenting your business cards to other business owners, possible clients, or anyone else, it’s essential you’re taken seriously. If you are dressed nicely, give a good hand shake, and present someone with a really cheap looking business card, what do you think they’ll think of you? They will most likely think of you as someone who cuts corners and will also not even think of you ever again because you didn’t leave a lasting impression on them.  Some of the things your business cards should include if you do want to make a great first impression are your logo, company name, website, and contact information. If you want to make an extra amazing business card, you should have print on the front and back of your business cards. A really smart thing to do nowadays is to include a QR code that links to your website or review page. 

Lack Of Branding

Having a bland business card made is a very easy way for possible clients to totally forget about you and your company. People will remember and want to work with you when you stand out with cards that are metal, plastic see through, have foil color on them, or have a distinct shape to them. Plain is boring. Be different and get noticed. This could lead you to getting so many new clients. 

Not Professional

Your business cards, apparel, and websites are all things that reflect on your business. That means if you have cheap and tacky business cards, people will think you and your company are cheap and tacky as well. With cheap business cards come cheap and thin paper, typos and misprints, and most likely a ton more problems. If you preach that you provide the best quality with whichever services you offer, you need to have the best quality business cards, company apparel, and everything else!
