What information should be included on a custom business card?

Category: Design

When you design a business card, it always helps to think about how your clients will use the card. These are some of the questions we ask in our design consultation:

  • How do you want a client to contact you?
  • Do you have a physical location?
  • What is the process to book an appointment / purchase a product / schedule a call?

A well-designed custom business card should have the following key details:

  1. Name: Your full name or the name of your business.
  2. Job Title: Clearly state your role or position.
  3. Company Name: Include your company or brand name.
  4. Contact Information: Email, phone number, and business address.
  5. Website: Provide a link to your website or portfolio.
  6. Social Media: Include relevant social media handles if applicable.
  7. Logo/Branding: Incorporate your logo or brand colors for consistent visual identity.

These essential elements ensure that your card communicates your professionalism and makes it easy for others to connect with you.
