Business cards are a very important and yet inexpensive advertising tool. A well-designed business card will prove to be much more impressive to your customers and reflect the quality service or product you offer. A Business Card is the first impression that you give a client. Our design team will work with you to make that first impression the best it can be.

At Print Master, we offer a wide array of business card options, from color, quantity, paper stock, size, layout, and also production processes used. Short run cards can be achieved quickly and economically in single color, multi-color and full color from either our digital process equipment, or our traditional offset printing press. Raised print (thermography) cards are also available.
 
Whether you want your cards to give a professional conservative impression or a wild contemporary look, Print Master can provide you with top quality business card designs which will make a lasting impression. If you're interested in having your business cards go to work for you, we challenge you to think of them as your 30-second marketing brochure. Don't just insert your name, address, and telephone number on a standard size card on plain white paper stock and black ink and think your job is complete. We offer full color business card design and printing at very low rates. Take full advantage of your card's potential. Don't waste a perfect opportunity -- maybe the ONLY opportunity -- to promote YOU and YOUR BUSINESS.

Does Your Current Business Card Pass The Trash Test?

Reach in your wallet and pull out your business card. Your Small Business Information guide has put together the business card test. Learn if your business card will pass or be trashed.

Size: Does your business card conform to the traditional size of 3.5" by 2"? Anything greater will not fit in wallets or most business card holders. End result = trash.

Paper Quality: Is your card of professional quality or is it flimsy with perforated edges? Cheap cards are trashed.

Ink: Put a few drops of liquid on your business card. If the ink runs, it's in the trash.

Color Test: Colorful cards can add to your professional image. Too much color can be detracting if the layout is tacky. Trash your card if it is black and white or has more than 3-4 colors unless a photograph or graphic image is used.

Message: Your business card should clearly tell people what you do and offer a meaningful benefit. No message adds confusion so your card ends up in the trash.

Image Match: Your business card should match your business image. If you're a designer than the card should be creative. If you are a doctor, your card should be clean and concise. If your card is out of synch with your image, time to toss it.

Font Size: Is your card crammed with information? Appropriately placed space on the card will make it easier to absorb your message. If you have a lot to say, add it to the back of the business card. Is the print so tiny you have too squint, or use a magnifying glass to see it? Then this one too is heading for the trash.

Contact Information: Your clients or potential clients should have as many means as possible to contact you based on their preference. Your card should include as many of the means as possible: address, voicemail, cell phone, phone, fax, email, and website. Lack of contact information puts your card in the trash.

You only have one chance to make a great first impression. Make sure you invest in the best business cards you can afford. The card is your introduction to a client, for the low cost per card that is money well spent.
