You probably won’t realize quite how many options there are for printing your business cards until you actually start the process. This is why it is vital to use an online printing service that has the knowledge and experience to make it easier.
The first choice you will have to make is what card stock to use for your business cards. A lot of companies will settle for using flimsy 10 or 12 point card stock, and will advise this as acceptable, but it is better to use 14 or 16 point stock. It is obviously more durable, and gives your business cards that expensive look. However, it needn’t be expensive. Color Printing Pros offer a free upgrade from their standard heavy 14 to extra heavy 16 point card stock. You could even choose the eco friendly linen option that contains at least 30% recycled material and has an attractive linen uncoated texture. This is a good option if you want your company to be branded as a “green” one, which is very important in this day and age.
Want something really different? try one of the latest stocks Color Printing Pros has added for that WOW Factor effect such as transparent plastic, waterproof cards or silk laminated. Be the first with these new stocks that offer you that one-of-a-kind looks.
When it comes to the design and color of your business cards, there are yet more options. You can choose to have both sides of your card in full color, one side color/one side black and white or one side color/one side blank. You can also have a combination of attractive options such as foil or spot UV on the front or back (or both) of your business card. Good use of color will be eye catching and help set your card apart from the rest.
The finish of your card is important too. Again, there are many different options to choose from to make your card exactly how you want it to be. Overall gloss UV coating comes as standard on all 14 and 16pt card stock. It is environmentally friendly, and helps bring your design to life and to preserve it, keeping it looking fresh. However, you can feel free to opt out of this and have your card finished in a dull matte instead. This certainly adds an elegant look and feel to your business card, and works very well over type as it removes any glare.
Spot UV coating is a wonderful way to draw the eye to your logo or design. This is when the glossy coating is only applied to a specific area of the printed product, and it gives your business cards a really professional, premium look. The contrast between the matte background and the shine of the design is very impressive.
Of course, making sense of all of these options can be somewhat daunting. If you don’t feel inspired to start from scratch, you can always make use of the templates at Color Printing Pros to either model your design on or to just give a little inspiration.
You can trust Color Printing Pros to make the business card printing process as easy and enjoyable as possible, whilst giving you full creative control and plenty of help along the way, should you need it.
