In the age of smartphones, do business cards still work? After all, don\u2019t people just scan your business card into their phones? Like all things with print today, the answer is yes they do work if you do them right. It\u2019s about good design.<\/p>\n

We have talked about the different ways to market using print today. UV Coating<\/a>, over laminates, or paper stock can make the difference if someone keeps your card or not. Good design will always win for you. People are drawn to shiny objects. Your business card can be one for you. It projects one of the 1st impressions they have for your brand.<\/p>\n

Does your print shop support creating unique business cards for clients? Can you fulfill their requests for unique substrates and overlaminates? Do you have UV Coating machine to coat their cards with either a gloss, matte or satin finish?<\/p>\n

Here are a few examples of good business card design that stands apart:<\/p>\n
