This will help us understand their needs and their questions too. One of the top most frequently asked question is related to business card printing. People are more concerned about getting the best design and output for their business cards and reflecting on it. It completely makes sense.

Let’s reminisce the first time you received your first business card. Do you remember how proud you were? You don’t have to write your name on a piece of paper or an old gum wrapper again. Business cards make you feel more important. You might be torn on whether you would like to put your professional name on it or your nick name. My first set of business cards, came from Everex Systems, Inc, the company I began working at when I was only 18 years of age. It was my first real job and when I saw my name imprinted on those cards, I must have truly been glowing as Im sure you were when you got your first set of business cards.

With everything mentioned above, arent business cards one of the most important pieces of marketing materials we use promote ourselves, our services or our businesses. Isnt it important to put some serious thought into the look, layout, design, information and overall quality of the business card you carry? What does your current business card say about you?

Does your business card show you are a professional and take your profession serious? Does your business card have the logo of another company on it because you got them for free? (yes, I mean Vista Print! Why are you advertising someone elses online printing business when after you pay for shipping and handling, you could have simply purchased your business cards somewhere else for the same total price?)

Does your business card show you as someone who likes color or is your business card show you as the more formal type because your business card is simply white with your logo and contact information on it?

Have your printed your own business cards before on an Avery business card and end up looking unprofessional? Or maybe you have received a business card that was printed on copy paper and was unevenly cut. Do you think this is effective? Seriously?

Some people put so many phone numbers in their business cards like, home, office, home office, fax and efax. This tends to confuse people on how and where to reach you. It will even make contacting you more difficult.

Have you placed a photo that was taken 10 years ago? Or perhaps a glamour shot that was taken during your prom night? Does it appear to be really pixelated? Are you putting in a picture of you years back cause you are avoiding to look fat?

Have you tried using the backside of your business cards for marketing purposes? Also, avoid using poor quality images for your headshot or even for your company logo. Make sure it is not pixelated or smudged.

Since you only have a very small area, you need top carefully execute the design and best use the space for important information.

What information should you put on your business card?

First, have your business done professionally. If you take your profession or your business seriously, you would want to made a decent first impression. For as low as $49 (plus shipping and tax), you can get 1000 color business cards at http://PrinterBees.com. If you don’t have the skills to do graphic design, you can have it professionally done by a graphic designer. Ready-made templates are available at our website at: www.printerbees.com. You will even find a video tutorial that will help you with the process.

It is important to disclose your contact information but try to avoid to disclose every single contact information that you have. One phone number and One fax number. Refrain from putting in your home number and your personal mobile numbers. This will help you separate your personal from business life.

Your headshot, if appropriate. People are more likely to remember you if they have an image to associate with the name. If you are overweight and dont want your photo on your card, that is fineBUT arent people going to find out you are overweight when they meet you in person, if they didnt meet you already when you handed them your card. Call me silly, but I guess it just doesnt make sense to me. Keep your headshot updated for heavens sake. The average rule of thumb is to update it once per year.or if you have a drastic change in hair color/styleor if you should gain or loose 25 lbs. You know the people who lost 25 lbs updated their headshot real quick! I know I would.
