You\u2019ve seen them help other small businesses. You know some of the companies offering them. But what should you look out for when you make your own business card? And how do you go about it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are three important things to keep in mind when you make your own business card: how you present your brand, content for the use case, and clear design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is what you\u2019ll learn about making your own business cards:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-flat ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/making-business-card\/#Different_ways_to_make_a_business_card\" >Different ways to make a business card<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/making-business-card\/#Examples_of_business_cards\" >Examples of business cards<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/making-business-card\/#This_is_where_you_can_make_a_business_card_online\" >This is where you can make a business card online<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/making-business-card\/#What_information_goes_on_a_business_card\" >What information goes on a business card?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/making-business-card\/#What_is_important_when_you_design_a_business_card\" >What is important when you design a business card?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/making-business-card\/#What_is_the_standard_size_of_a_business_card\" >What is the standard size of a business card?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/making-business-card\/#Digital_business_cards\" >Digital business cards<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/making-business-card\/#Make_a_business_card_that_fits_your_situation\" >Make a business card that fits your situation<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Different_ways_to_make_a_business_card\"><\/span>Different ways to make a business card<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several ways to make your business card or have it made for you. With some, you need to invest a bit more of your time, with others, a bit more budget. And many will give you a good result without spending much of either.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll usually find several options at the more serious business card providers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Business card templates<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Great option for a quick start<\/li><li>Easy to work with<\/li><li>Low budget<\/li><li>Limited design options<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You add your own information to a template designed by a professional. This is a great option for beginners, as you can\u2019t really go wrong. Look out for templates that give you the chance to use your own colors or fonts, so your business card matches your brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some providers who offer business card templates: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vistaprint.com\/\">Vistaprint<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moo.com\/us\/\">Moo<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/looka.com\/\">Looka<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Business card editors<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Good option for beginners<\/li><li>Spend as much time as you want<\/li><li>Low budget<\/li><li>A good range of design options<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Business card editors give you more options to adjust a premade business card design. You add your own information and style, but you can also make adjustments to the template itself. This gives you more freedom to make your card look the way you want, but you\u2019ll need to spend a bit more time making design decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some providers who offer business card editors: <a href=\"https:\/\/looka.com\/\">Looka<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moo.com\/us\/\">Moo<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Graphic design tools<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Good for branding and visual impact<\/li><li>Some design knowledge required<\/li><li>Can be low budget<\/li><li>Start from scratch with all options available<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Graphic design tools give you access to all the tools to make or edit a design. These tools are generally great if you have some design experience already or like experimenting. Some even offer business card templates as a starting point. Once your design is finished, you can usually get a deal from the platform\u2019s own printing service or upload your design at another provider.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some online graphic design tools with built-in business card templates: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canva.com\/\">Canva<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/pixlr.com\/\">Pixlr<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Designer or agency<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Good for established business looking for the next step<\/li><li>Longer process<\/li><li>Prices can be higher<\/li><li>Guaranteed unique design&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Graphic designers are professionals who can design your business card for you. They will ask you about your brand, your colors, and your style, and come up with exciting unique designs based on you. Most graphic designers can also arrange printing if you ask. You\u2019ll generally get very high quality results if you go this route, but it comes at a higher price because of all the work involved.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Working with a graphic designer is a great option if your business has been up and running for a few years and you\u2019re looking for the next step in branding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some online platforms to find a designer or agency: <a

This customization step is where you add in your own logo and your own exact brand colors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Looka\u2019s strong points<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Large selection of icons and templates<\/li><li>Lots of customizable options<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Once your business card is complete, you pay to download the entire brand kit.

The wide range of options is great if you have some basic knowledge already.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re designing your very first business card, you can keep things simple by adding your own information into a template. Customize it by adding your brand colors, and you\u2019ll have a good-looking business card design. You can order your prints or download your design for free in a few clicks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Canva\u2019s strong points<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Good selection of customizable business card templates<\/li><li>Lots of detailed and easy to use design options<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You might be familiar with Canva already if you read our article about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jimdo.com\/blog\/how-to-edit-photos-without-photoshop\/\">alternatives to Photoshop<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canva.com\/\">Go to Canva<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Moo: a flexible option<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.moo.com\/\">Moo<\/a> starts your business card journey with choices about the size, thickness, and paper finish for your business card. Once all that is set, you choose one of three ways to design your business card: use a template, design your own in the editor, or upload an existing design.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Working with templates at Moo is simple, all you do is fill in your information. The editor gives you more options to customize your design. Moo offers you a choice from their standard colors for the background and font color of your business card. You can upload your own logo to templates that have space for a logo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Moo\u2019s strong points<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Lots of finishing options<\/li><li>Design options for every level of experience&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.moo.com\/\">Go to Moo<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_information_goes_on_a_business_card\"><\/span>What information goes on a business card?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Every business card has some standard information:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Business name<\/li><li>Contact option, like a phone number or email address<\/li><li>Your logo<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-center post-cta has-white-background-color has-background is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-0111f410 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Design a logo that makes your business stand out.<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-content-justification-right is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-17124a9a wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a data-tracking=\"post_cta_logo_tool\" class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/logo.e.jimdo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Design yours now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>On top of that, you can add additional info like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Your job title<\/li><li>Your product or service<\/li><li>Company social media accounts<\/li><li>Logos of trade organizations or institutes you\u2019re certified with<\/li><li>Call-to-action<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Some business cards also have scannable QR codes that add the information directly to the recipient&#8217;s phone contacts. You can come up with exciting new business card ideas, but clear, basic contact details are all you really need.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_important_when_you_design_a_business_card\"><\/span>What is important when you design a business card?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Clarity, clarity, clarity. Keep your design simple, use plenty of white space, and limit your content. After all, you\u2019re designing a business card, not a flyer. It\u2019s there to give others your main contact details in a simple fashion.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Add your brand to your business card<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jimdo.com\/blog\/logo-design\/\">company logo<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jimdo.com\/blog\/branding\/\">brand style<\/a> already, you can use the same icon and color codes to apply your brand to your business card. To make your business card match your brand, copy the color codes from your website or your logo and use them when you make your business card. The icon from your logo is always included as a separate file if you download your logo from Jimdo\u2019s Logo Creator, so it\u2019s ready to use on your business card.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A simple rule is to use one side of the card to show your brand and the other side for your contact details. Always use a logo for business cards or other print materials that is high quality and has a transparent background, to give you the most freedom in design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-center post-cta has-white-background-color has-background is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-0111f410 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Design a logo that makes your business stand out.<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-content-justification-right is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-17124a9a wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a data-tracking=\"post_cta_logo_tool\" class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/logo.e.jimdo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Design yours now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keep a margin for error<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the best practices in business card design is to keep at least 0.1 inch or 3.5 mm pixels from the edge free. This gives you clarity in design, a space for marginal errors in printing or cutting, and keeps your information readable even when your card has been tucked in a wallet for a long time and frayed at the edges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s best to avoid any straight lines close to the edge of the card too. Even if they look great on the screen, they\u2019ll highlight even the smallest cutting errors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you design in a tool like <a href=\"http:\/\/canva.com\">Canva<\/a>, there\u2019s a safety line in the template to help you position elements in the right place.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Extend your background<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some business card designs use a background pattern. If you do, make sure the pattern extends beyond the edge of the business card in your design file. Machines used to print and cut a business card can be marginally off sometimes. If you extend your background, your card will still look perfect if that happens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most editors, like the ones in <a href=\"https:\/\/looka.com\/\">Looka<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moo.com\/\">Moo<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vistaprint.com\/\">Vistaprint<\/a>, display this safe area. Some even show a warning if design elements are in the wrong place.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_standard_size_of_a_business_card\"><\/span>What is the standard size of a business card?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A standard business card is 3.5\u201d x 2\u201d or 8.9 x 5.1 cm. This fits any wallet or cardholder and it\u2019s about the same size as a credit or debit card. If you want to stand out with a different size, try changing your business card dimensions to a smaller version instead of a bigger one. You want your business card to be stored with any other business cards, so it\u2019s there where the recipients would look for business cards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also get square business cards in a 2.5\u201d x 2.5\u201d or 6.4 x 6.4 cm size. While square business cards can look really good, they won\u2019t fit every wallet. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moo.com\/\">Moo<\/a> even introduced its own standard size, which is slightly smaller than the standard business card.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Digital_business_cards\"><\/span>Digital business cards<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the last few years, digital business cards have become a popular option. Some are completely digital: they have the same look and information as a paper business card, but as a digital file. You create your card, share the link, and the recipient has your info saved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your information changes, you can update your digital business card without investing in a whole other print run. And contacts always get your up-to-date details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since a digital business card is not limited by paper size, you have more freedom to add extra information, links to your online profiles, or even video content. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hihello.me\/\">HiHello<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dibiz.com\/en\">Dibiz<\/a> are just two of the many sites that offer digital cards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Others combine physical business cards with NFC technology: you carry a beautifully designed business card with you, you tap the customers\u2019 phone, and you\u2019re added to their Contacts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Providers who offer this include <a href=\"https:\/\/mobilocard.com\/\">Mobilocard<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/v1ce.co\/\">V1Ce<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Make_a_business_card_that_fits_your_situation\"><\/span>Make a business card that fits your situation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you plan to hand out business cards at trade fairs or sales meetings, the card should mention your name, role or job title, and your product or service. People should know who you are and what you offer right away.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A business card you\u2019ll include with mail order parcels should focus on your brand. You want customers to connect your brand with the positive feeling of receiving their order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Example: add a business card when you ship products<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Online store orders are examples of business cards being used in new ways. When you\u2019re packing your customer\u2019s order for shipping, you pop your business card in the box too. It\u2019s a nice, subtle way to engage customers with your brand without interrupting their experience. To get the best result, you need to make a business card with the right style and content.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Branding<\/strong> should be front and center. Give your brand logo a prominent place and use your brand colors. That connects your brand to that happy \u201cunboxing\u201d feeling.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Contact options<\/strong> should be simple to encourage people to reach out to you directly with questions or inquiries and not through a public channel.<\/li><li><strong>Social sharing<\/strong> should be easy. Add a call-to-action and your social media info so happy customers know who to tag in their online posts. You can even add a company hashtag (like #billsbakery).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If customers order online, they might not know you have a physical store too. Include your address and invite them to pop in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 wp-block-gallery-6 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"342\" height=\"185\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Cheerfull-chess-front.png?resize=342%2C185&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"6436\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Cheerfull-chess-front.png\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/?attachment_id=6436\" class=\"wp-image-6436\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Cheerfull-chess-front.png?resize=342%2C185&amp;ssl=1 342w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Cheerfull-chess-front.png?resize=632%2C341&amp;ssl=1 632w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Cheerfull-chess-front.png?zoom=2&amp;resize=342%2C185&amp;ssl=1 684w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Cheerfull-chess-front.png?zoom=3&amp;resize=342%2C185&amp;ssl=1 1026w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 342px) 100vw, 342px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"342\" height=\"185\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Cheerfull-chess-back.png?resize=342%2C185&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"6435\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Cheerfull-chess-back.png\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/?attachment_id=6435\" class=\"wp-image-6435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Cheerfull-chess-back.png?resize=342%2C185&amp;ssl=1 342w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Cheerfull-chess-back.png?resize=632%2C341&amp;ssl=1 632w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Cheerfull-chess-back.png?zoom=2&amp;resize=342%2C185&amp;ssl=1 684w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.jimdo.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Cheerfull-chess-back.png?zoom=3&amp;resize=342%2C185&amp;ssl=1 1026w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 342px) 100vw, 342px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption\">This brand focused business card for an online game store was made with Canva, using a logo from the Jimdo Logo Creator.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-center post-cta has-white-background-color has-background is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-0111f410 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Start selling your products online with Jimdo.<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-content-justification-right is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-17124a9a wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a data-tracking=\"post_cta_create_shop_signup\" class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/cms.jimdo.com\/wizard\/?store=1\">Start Now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Example: streamline client meetings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Today you\u2019re meeting your client and their team for the first time.
