Why is a business card important?
A business card is an important part of an organization’s brand identity.
Business cards act as pocket sized billboards. When designed well, business cards leave a lasting first impression and attract devoted customers. They are an essential part of building brand recognition and should match the rest of your company’s branding and aesthetic. But it’s impossible to visually stand out if your identity looks like thousands of others.
Your business card should be as unique as your business.

How crowdspring works for custom business card design
1.Tell us what you need.
- Interactive Q&A customized for business card projects.
- Flexible pricing for everyone.
- Simple (takes just a few minutes) and proven process.
FAQs
Projects run for 7 days, but you can shorten the turnaround time to as little as 1 day if you’re in a hurry. Many entries come in the last few days of a project, and we encourage you to wait until the project ends before picking your favorite (tell us if you want to close the project early). You can extend your project for free, up to 7 more days if you need more time.
Custom business card design packages start at $299, while projects with a single designer (1-to-1 projects) start at $200. All packages include the award to the designer and crowdspring’s fee, a custom legal contract giving you full rights to the work you’re buying, free focus groups, our award-winning customer support, tools and platform. You can select packages and features based on what you need and your budget. You will always know up front exactly what you’ll pay, with no hidden costs and no surprises.
Absolutely! Every project on crowdspring is protected by a custom legal contract giving you full rights to the work you’re buying. If you have multiple awards, you’ll have separate contracts for each. Once the contract is signed and the creative is paid after you approve the final deliverables in your project, you can use the design (or name) any way you like. You can change it or alter it in any way – it’s yours.
The non-winning work remains the property of the person who created that work. This means you may not use those other entries (or any portions of them) in any way. But we give you an easy way to add awards and make offers in your projects when you find more than one design (or name) you love.

I loved working with crowdspring! It was so exciting to watch your project pick up steam as you gave feedback to the creatives. It felt very collaborative and you have so many creative people submitting ideas just for your project. Their system is organized, easy to use and understand. I am so happy with the results!

FAQs
Multiple designers will create dozens of custom business card designs. The more active you are in the project, the more awesome designs you will get. You’ll have more custom business card design options than anywhere else. We’ll let you know every time a new design or comment comes in and invite you to give feedback. The more feedback you provide, the more creative ideas you’ll receive. Years of experience show us that projects with active clients will receive more than double the designs compared to projects with low client participation.
Absolutely! In fact, this is a key factor for success. Once the designs start rolling in, let the designers know what you think about their designs. You can score and give individual feedback. You can also update your brief if you want to address all participants in your project. They are happy to make changes and iterate on their designs.
When you score each entry (1 to 5 stars), your score and comments are private. Only you and the individual designer will see the star rating and comments on their design. Updates to your brief are public for all participants in the project.
Like more than one business card design? It happens all the time. You can start your project with multiple awards or add awards at any time during your project. You can also make offers on additional designs after your project has been awarded.

In 10 years I have launched 17 projects on crowdspring and have always been impressed. Crowdspring brings 10 maybe even 100 times more creativity than simply working with a single random creative I could have found outside of crowdspring where I might only see a couple different concepts. And the price is very affordable.

3.Pick the winning design and finalize the project.
- Select the winner.
- Make final adjustments.
- Receive full rights to the work you purchased.
FAQs for step 3
You have seven days to select your favorite after the project closes. Sometimes, you might need an extra few days. Just let us know when that happens.
Before making the final decision, you may want to run a free focus group. All silver packages in design projects include one free focus group ($29 upgrade to unlimited). All other design packages include unlimited focus groups.
A focus group (also called a "poll") allows you to invite friends, customers, colleagues, potential clients, and anyone else to vote and comment on their favorite designs (you can assign weighted votes or let each vote count equally). Anyone is eligible to vote as long as they have the special voting URL we’ll provide to you (they will not need to register an account). Your focus group can be public or private - you choose! You fully control whom you invite to each focus group and what designs are included in each focus group.
In design projects, you'll have a private area to complete the project with the designer you chose. If you have more than one award, you'll have a separate wrap-up with each designer. Each of you will sign the legal contract for the project (giving you full rights once the designer is paid).
You can continue to iterate and request changes in wrap-up to make sure the design is just right. Once you approve the proof files (which are a mockup of the final design), the designer will create and send final files for your approval. Once you approve the final files, we pay the designer and you own full rights to the work.
For each project category, we'll recommend required file types and will ask the winning designer to create and provide you with appropriate final files and CMYK colors for print, including appropriate PSD files (if needed). You can always request specific printing formats you or your printer require (such as InDesign), which can be used in any type of printing using any type of ink, including letterpress, die-cut, and embossing.

I just finished my 2nd of 3 projects with crowdspring. The first was an incredible book cover. This new project was artwork for a wooded token. I have a 3rd project on going for the development of a logo for graphic for my wife's jewelry business. I'll summarize - Don't waste your time at other sites - just come to crowdspring.com. The experience, the talent and the result will only make your life easier.

Frequently Asked Questions About Business Card Design
Fundamentally, a business card is used to easily share contact information with someone. When meeting with a potential customer, partner, or investor, you can leave a business card for that person to use in a follow-up call or email.
Having a card is much more efficient than simply writing your name, number, and company info. It also promotes your brand and creates a better connection between your target audience and your business.
In most cases, yes. Business cards aid in brand recognition, displaying your businesses purpose (call-to-action), and sharing contact information. But more than that they provide one of the only personal aspects left in the modern marketing world.
Without this personal touch, there would be a disconnect between your target audience and connecting to the brand – all of which require emotion and being personable.
Three key steps create an effective and successful business card: a concept, a design, and a message. Putting each step together creates a key business asset and leaves a lasting impression.
While we outlined tips for a successful business card above, here are the key takeaways: have a simple, easy-to-read design, include only essential information, don’t crowd the card with too much detail, carefully plan out the design (having information on the front, back, or both), don’t force a design, meaning stick to the basics if you don’t have a clear vision, and have good quality paper and choose the right paper for your design.
Take a look at 'Why are business cards important' above to help understand and break down the meaning behind these takeaways.
A business card should clearly show all the necessary information such as your name, your company, your contact information, etc. Here are the elements that should never be included in your business card design: typos or misprints, hard-to-read or small print, visual clutter or information overload, poor quality paper, no call-to-action or value proposition, outdated information.
By maintaining a clean and precise business card, you improve your brand’s quality and authenticity while presenting true professionalism.
Business cards typically contain the name, company, and contact information (address, telephone number, email, fax, website). The layout on custom designed business cards can vary and business card size varies too. Sizes vary also for different types. Corporate business cards might differ from minimalist business cards.
For example, in Canada, the United State and the Netherlands, the typical size for business cards is 89 x 51 mm (3.5 x 2 inches).
In Australia and New Zealand, the typical size for business cards is 90 x 55 mm (3.54 x 2.165 inches).
And in Italy, the United Kingdom, France, Denmark and Spain, the typical size for a business card is 85 x 55 mm (3.346 x 2.165 inches).
When business cards are designed, they are given “bleeds” if the color extends to the edge of the finished cut size. A bleed is an extension of the printed line or color beyond the line where the paper the card is printed on will be cut. This ensures that the paper will cut without white edges on any type of card stock.
Keep in mind that while previously, business cards were printed solely on matte, coated or uncoated paper, many more options are available today. Apart from paper, business cards can be made from plastic, specially frosted translucent plastic, crystal clear plastic, white or metallic plastic, metal, rubberized materials, magnets, and real wood. This gives custom business cards a unique texture not found on paper stock. And while most business cards are rectangular in size, you can get yours with rounded corners, and in abstract shapes.
Yes. Invoices, receipts, letterhead, compliments slips, business cards, envelopes, and other pieces of stationery provide an opportunity to promote your logo, company name, tagline and your contact information. Whenever you send printed materials for any reason, the look and feel of the basic components should be similar. Similarity provide a uniformity of message and image to all who see them. In this way, you create and strengthen your brand identity. That’s why you should avoid template business card designs. They’ll make your card look like thousands of other businesses. High quality business cards stand out and are unique.
Yes. As we discussed above, uniformity of message is very important in business card design, and you should strive for a similar uniformity when it comes to the design of your website or email newsletter, or your blog. This includes using identical or complementary colors, fonts, and overall typography to those used in your brand identity. If your existing business cards don't match your brand, consider new business cards and a fresh graphic design for those cards. And remember to get matching letterhead.
Usually, the paper type depends on the design. Also, most designers will suggest what the best paper is for your specific design. The most common paper types for business cards are: 14-point cardstock (thick), 16-point cardstock (thicker), and 100 lb. gloss cover (thin).
But business cards don’t have to be restricted to paper only. Other materials include plastic, stainless steel, and wood. Be careful though, as other materials can also increase production costs.
