Sales visits, networking, trade counters and appointment cards
Choose the right specification
Make the first exchange useful: clear contact details, readable type and a finish that fits the way the card will be used.
- Single or double sided; keep the reverse for a map, appointment details or a short service list.
- Choose a stock by how the card should feel in a hand, not by the heaviest number alone.
- Use a finish that preserves legibility; a glossy surface can make handwritten notes difficult.
Planning example: several people, one event
If three colleagues need cards for an exhibition, count the cards for each person separately. Put one shared brand master behind the variants, then proof every name and direct number. This reduces the chance that an urgent reprint is caused by a detail on just one version.
What to send for a useful quote
Tell us the final size, quantity, sides, stock feel, finish and deadline. If you need several staff names, give the quantity for each version.
Keep names and phone numbers comfortably inside the trim, embed fonts in a print-ready PDF, and check a physical proof for small type and contrast.
A question we hear
Can I print several names?
Yes, ask for a versioned quote and send a clear list of names, roles and contact details for approval.
Plan the file and approval
Before we produce the job, check the final PDF for the exact wording, dates, contact details, size and page or panel order. Confirm any unusual stock, mounting or finishing with the team. A physical sample can be useful where fit, colour or feel matters.
