Tips on how to design your business cards. Know what elements help you get remembered.

A good business card must be consistent with the image of your company; somewhat difficult considering their small size. And is that, how can you get your message across a space of only two by three inches?

You should not expect to tell the story of your business on a simple card, but what you should seek is to present a professional image that people will remember. The color, text and texture of your business card greatly influence its attractiveness and ability to show the image of your company.

Clearly, designers recommend that entrepreneurs do not design their own business cards, however many business owners must. The best course of action: Take a close look at the business cards you receive and try to imitate the ones you like best.

Although you should be more creative if your business deserves it, in general you should follow these simple steps when designing your cards:

1. Use your logo as a base. Make it the largest item on the card.
2. Keep it simple. Don't put a lot of information on the card.
3. Include the essentials: name, position, company, address, telephone and email.
4. Make sure the typeface is legible.
5. Try to use only two colors.
