As someone who once made a living selling office supplies, such as business cards, stationery, envelopes, etc, I am here to tell you that a professional-looking business card is THE most important supply you will need if you want to be taken seriously as a freelancer. Your business cards represent who you are, what you do, and how to contact you. Sure, we all use email, so you may be thinking that’s contact information enough. And it’s easy to print amateur business cards on your computer, so why do you need professional business cards?
If you compare the minimal cost of thermographed, (raised letters) business cards to the cost of ink and paper and time creating your own on your computer, you will realize that the vast professionalism presented by ordering your business cards is well worth any slight difference in cost.
You have one chance to make a first impression. Do it the right way by ordering your business cards from a professional company. Don’t make the mistake of cutting corners in this area of your business.
