Building a Better Branded Business Card

Everyone knows the business card is your first introduction to a new client. Most even understand the importance of making the most of your promotional documents, and what it says about you. But recently there’s been a lot of chatter about Brand Recognition and how the Business Card represents your Brand.Recently, I was handed a card for Real Estate in a mountainous area of the community and the Realtor’s name was Giselle. The card had the image of a Gazelle on the back, with her information on the front. Either way, you’d know whose card you had. An amazing woman, she represented properties in the highlands and her card represented that very well.Another card, had black markings and a red “check mark” indicating that she’d CHECK OFF her list of strategic processes. The card was as amazing and memorable as the woman. The woman’s business was well branded and easily recognized by the first promotional document she handed you.Yet another, sported pink markings on one side and a well presented head shot photo on the front with an appointment blank at the bottom. The Mary Kay consultant represented fit the card, and could easily be identified and remembered by the award winning smile on the front.These three business cards represent women who know that branding successfully means being identifiable among the crowds, and specifically in the masses of cards collected daily by business owners. Building a better branded business card means putting your personality and identifiable properties on the card.• Use a high impact graphic that says “YOU”• Include identifiable characteristics of your business• Include a photo – head shot of yourself on the front• Add your logo to the back of the card and say something with color• Impact the audience with a difference that is recognizable in a stack of cards Your Business Card is the first contact your clients have with your business.Make it memorable. Effectively brand your business with Logo Designs that speak volumes without saying a word.
