One rarely ? if ever ? gets a second chance to make a first impression. So when it comes to that opportunity to slide your business card across the table at that oh-so-important meeting... what face are you putting forward? Are you confident and proud of the image you?re projecting? Or are you left with a sneaking suspicion that it could be better?

At a minimum, most businesses are well-served with a beautifully designed and expertly printed business card and No. 10 envelope. More and more, businesses are doing away with letterhead, notepads, etc., but the business card and the No. 10 seem to be a business staple.

> SEE THE WORK

Traditionally 3.5? wide by 2? tall, business cards don?t have to be boring. Consider creating a 3? x 2? card. Considering printing it on both sides, flooding the back of the card with eye-catching graphics that support your brand identity. Other options include folding cards, business card brochures, embossing, letterpress, square or even round die cuts... the options are endless when you creative minds are at work on your project.

Options don?t have to be expensive either. Paper stock can be used as a second or third color, inks can be screened to create the effect of a second color... again, when you?re working with experienced print designers who have managed countless stationery projects, the end results are guaranteed to be impressive.

Not to be forgotten in your portfolio of business essentials is a custom notecard with matching envelope. Nothing says class and professionalism more than the business person who takes a few minutes to write thoughtful note after an especially important or memorable event or meeting. Slip your gorgeous business card in with your notecard, and you?ve got an impressive branding touch point for a relatively tiny percentage of your marketing budget.

I die a slow death when I pass out my cards ? please help!
