What are some examples of unique business cards?
Question:
Answer:
A few basic and cool things that I have seen done with your traditional business card include,
-printing it vertical, not landscape style (stands out as different but still basic)
-minor variation in shape like curved corners (I saw one with two opposite corner curved with the other two normal)
-use a different "paper" (I saw one that was printed on very fine wood so that it was the thickness of a business card but with the texture and appearance of real wood; I also saw another that was printed on a very shiny, metallic paper that totally caught my eye)
-no name on the front (saw one that had the company logo and info on front and a line of multiple names along the back with the specific person's name bolded, able to show some others within the company while focusing on one person)
I would definitely suggest maintaining the traditional size and shape of the everyday business card. This allows for people to store the card with their other cards so that your card can easily be kept and organized. Simple variations do stand out because of the overwhelming number of blah cards people see everyday.
Try the E CARD it is a mini disc that is inserted into your computer.
i wouldn't go unique with a business card unless you are in a creative profession...if you are, then use something that is like the business you are in (cd for music, art palette, etc.)
maybe the people at dribbleglass.com can help you out!
A unique business card is the one that attracts immediate attention and tells the recipeint What's In It For Him.
Your business card should be a single fold 3 dimentional card. On the front cover put your most important USP, strong enough so the recipient of the card will be compelled to open it. Once the card opens it should reveal your 3 dimentional picture or object. Your personal info should be on the inside or back of the card with more USP. Sounds complicated to do but actualy quite simple to achieve.
I have learned this from Joel Bauer, the author of "How to persuade people who don't want to be persuaded".
