Make Your Business Cards Work For You

Note : The informations here on this webpage is relevant to any work at home craft business or other home business.

It is a good tool to promote your business. So do not try to save on the printing cost.

Make it simple but have it printed professionally. Choose good quality cardstock. Off-white or white would be a good choice for any business cards.

The following particulars should be included in your business cards:

Name

Title - Give yourself a title. Manager, Director, Creative Director. Any title that will convey the right image about you and your service. You can always call yourself a 'Creative Entrepreneur', 'Card Sender' if you could not find a suitable title for yourself.

Company Name - You should chosen your company name when you register your business and got your home business license so put it here.

Address - Your home address is always good unless you want some privacy then you might want to register a postal box for your work at home business and put your P.O. Box address here. Take note that usually, people like to do business with a real address though.

Contact No. - Your home and/or mobile no. I like to put my mobile no with incoming call id so I have the number of the person calling me. Just in case I need to call back which is often.

Email Address - Now email address is so important to conduct any kind of business and this greeting card business is no different. Register for a yahoo, google gmail or hotmail if you don't have a paid email address to communicate with your clients.

Website URL - It's good to have a website for your business. That's where your clients or prospective clients can view your works or know more about you. I use Site Built It! which is just great because everything is included in the package and by following their handbook, I was able to build my website and rank high in search engines and am now in the top 1% in the world. Imagine that! An effective website with good healthy traffic can help bring in clients to your greeting card business. And these are clients who come looking for you. SBI is vey effective. I will vouch for it.

Your business slogan (if any) - Saw mine on every page of my website? '...Connecting Lives! ~ bringing cheer one card at a time.' Create one of your own and place it in your stationery and website too.

You can choose a different size card and have it printed landscape or portrait style. The traditional or standard size of business cards is 5.5cm x 9cm. I personally like size 8.5cm X 4.5 cm better. Looks great and can easily slip my business cards into a card pocket.
