Color business card printing doesn’t necessarily mean printing your cards in different colors — it simply means vibrant print-outs on either business card side no matter what colors you choose for your design. Your choice of color theme may decide the effectiveness of how your business cards capture the interest of your customers. This is the reason why you have to appropriate the colors to be used on your card design with the product or service you offer in your business. With professional, full-color business cards, you are sure to catch the attention of your potential clients.
Knowing what needs to be done, however, is just half the battle. The next thing that needs to be done is to select the most suitable design elements for your business cards. In creating quality business cards, take the following into consideration:
- Choose the right color for your design. Think of the product or service you offer. Is your product or service gender-sensitive? If so, you might need to choose between masculine or feminine colors. Narrow your target market into a specific segment then choose colors appropriate for their market. In some cases, you will have to use neutral color in order to show that you cater to both sexes. Also, choosing colors present in your brand logo develops color association; the person you hand your business card automatically remember your product or service when he sees those colors.
- Proceed to designing and layout. Only use high-resolution images — these are images with 300 dpi or dots per inch setting or above. This ensures crisp and lively business cards once printed out. Set your designs to the color format of your printing company of choice. In UPrinting, we use CMYK color mode.
- Use gloss-coated card stock. The material or card stock your design is printed on may enhance the colors of your business cards. Gloss-coated card stock adds sheen and makes the colors of your business card design bolder compared to matte and uncoated card stock. If you want even bolder colors, UPrinting offers UV coating for die-cut business cards. For standard sized business cards, you can get UV coating at reasonable added cost. UV coating gives your business cards an extraordinary gloss compared to a normal gloss coated card stock.
- Choose the right printing company. Does your printing company give you the feeling of freedom when designing your color business card? Do they give you full color printing service that use eco-friendly, non-toxic, soy-based inks? Do they have state-of-the-art printing equipment that assures quality color print outs for a very affordable cost? These are just some of the questions you need to ask when looking for a printing company that will produce your business cards.

We at UPrinting offer excellent customer service and support, digital file proofing absolutely free of charge and design services at reasonable costs. All these factors ensure that you receive high-quality color business cards once we print your order.
