Which Business Card ?

Which one do you think..........

It's really difficult to choose, with the varying subjects that you take photographs of it may well be worth having different cards for different potential clients

I vote number two

That's what my wife said - however that means printing at home for short run numbers.....

I'd go for number two. Nicely neutral subject, and mono makes it stand out. It also complements your web-site.

The others might give the impression that you have a speciality that is not what potential customers are looking for.

Its a thought - would have to look into it for both home and outsourced printing

I think they are all good. As mentioned by others, according to who you are marketing to, has an influence on the card you use.

WHat about this for front and back

**Dabhand16** · 12-09-2006, 12:42

Good idea, but if you are going to use a standard size card, I think the images on the back might be too small. Some people might find them difficult to see.

I was always a big Colin Chapman fan. (Owner/designer of Lotus racing cars for the uninitiated). His philosophy was 'Add lightness and simplicate'. I have tried to apply this principal to most things with more sucess than failure. (In my eyes, anyway).

What I'm trying to say is whatever you choose, keep it simple. Less is more.

Wife: "Graham, do you not feel removing the doors was a bit excessive darling & don't you think the car looked a bit more wlecoming with a dashboard & door trims ? "
