Business Cards with Positioning Statement

This business card below is very engaging because it makes use of an old school photo giving the essence that this writer has classic writing skills and is a true professional. The graph paper background adds a whimsical touch and then I like that they include a positioning statement about the business itself. It makes it feel a little more like an ad. Obviously, it is perfect for a writer, but you could sub out the photo for a hammer and make it for a contractor, or electrical wires and make it for an electrician.

Graphic Business Cards

This business card below is fun, because anytime you use homey graphics like this and a familiar school house type font, you create a certain amount of comfort in the viewer. The customer might look at this business card and feel this is a builder they can trust. But you could also use this card for a house cleaning service or lawn care business as well.

Old School Business Cards

Right away I know what this business is for the card below, before I even read it. Framing the business name with traditional imagery that has represented the business for decades, and again using a retro font, makes you take notice. You could sub out the barber poles for symbolism of another type of classic profession, like a plumber, lawyer, leather crafter, etc.

Fun Business Card Designs

If you have a fun product, the card should be fun. This card for a cupcake bakery makes use of colorful sprinkles to grab attention. The reverse side of the business card is the turquoise blue, so either way it lands on a table, it catches the eye. Related Content: 12-Month Marketing Plan for an Online Bakery.

Subtle Imagery Business Card

When the imagery on a card is subtle but clever, it really does make the business card more enticing. This is such a great design below for an actor (but would also be great for a theater) because the stage curtains and stars are so subtle.

White Business Cards

A stark white card can be attention getting. This card design below for a beauty salon evokes a feeling of clean and fresh, with goes perfectly with their aesthetic. Simple imagery and a sleek handwritten font gives it a fairly timeless look.

Free Tone on Tone Business Card

There is something about a tone on tone, monochromatic business cards that really gets attention. This design below features a simple line graphic, the business name and a clear positioning statement.

Black and White Business Card

This is another black and white, minimalist design, and it suits the nature of this music studio business because it is clean and elegant. But another advantage to a black and white business card design is that your cards will be significantly cheaper to print. You could even print yourself.

Pretty Business Cards

It is important to think of your target market when designing your cards. This business card design below features a floral water-colour design for a wedding specialist. Obviously the target audience is women, so this card’s pretty design will definitely get noticed by them. The use of the rings is also a good idea, to quickly convey what the business is about. But this design could also be used for an artist or florist.

Detailed Business Card

What I like about this free business card template, is that all of the key information is on the front. You could duplicate this on the back as well, so whatever side appears always has your info, and no one has to turn it over. Related Content: Try This Trick to Find a New Business Idea.

Photography Business Card

Here is another type of photo business card, but this time the photo has to do with what the business is selling. This sort of design has more of an Instagram overlay feel, making it right on trend. But you could do something similar for a craft business, or any type of business that uses small-scale supplies that you could take a photo of.

Cute Business Cards

Sometimes cute works, as in this card for a dental center below. If the dental centre was specifically for children, this card design would be even more appropriate, with a smiling tooth that makes the dentist seem less scary. The bright blue color even has a nursery-type feel.

One Color Business Card

This simplistic card below is one color, and the benefit of this is that one color business cards are much less expensive to print. This design is minimal, but it works by using a stylish hand written font, a basic sans serif font for the business name and a line graphic. Ideal for any kind of professional.

Free Floral Business Card

I love this business card design because it uses only two colors, both in a vintage hue, but the bold floral design makes a big impact. Here it is for a textile designer, but it would be great for a boutique, florist, or artist.

Yoga Business Card

This is a well designed card, because it takes a classic symbol but only shows part of it, making more of an impact. The color combination is eye-catching as well. This is a great card for a yoga studio, herbalist, and meditation studio.

Cityscape Business Card

If your business focuses on your city, then a cityscape business card design like the one below is effective. This one creates a moody effective. It would be a great card for a restaurant with a view, an office park, a condominium, and an events company.
