I'm sure you've seen some transparent business cards before that have been amazing. When you hear the term transparent business cards, you tend to at first think of a completely see through card, without any writing on it. Pretty bland right? When you get all of your colours, copy, and information on to your transparent business card, it just looks downright professional. Another word that comes to mind when you see it: modern.
A modern business card design is absolutely paramount in most industries nowadays. How about anything to do with marketing, advertising, fashion, SEO, social media, etc. If you have a bland and boring business card in any of these industries, you very likely will be thrown out in the trash with your card. That's not the greatest method to promote your products or services, particularly with the huge amount of competition you're facing currently, in every industry.
Sizes: You can find tons of different sizes for your transparent business cards. Some of the companies that sell these transparent cards can also cut the plastic in various shapes, which could be good if you have an innovative idea in relation to your industry. The commonest dimensions are the regular business card size. They can also be in smaller sizes too.
Colours: Transparent sounds like it's just going to be a clear business card right? Not at all. You will have more alternatives on a transparent business card, because of the ease of putting on complex designs and colours. You may choose to tint the colour of the transparent cards in any way you want, as well as include any colour in the actual design of your text and images on it.
I've seen very advanced transparent business cards. For instance, I've seen a model's business card which had her face emblazoned directly on to the clear plastic. It was tinted light grey in a diagonal, and the rest was clear. It had her info in black text, and it just looked out of this world. You really can't get that sort of "wow" value with a regular paper business card.
If you're looking for a brand new business card design (you probably are), then consider a transparent design this time around. You will be amazed at the quality you will get for that price, and you will definitely immediately start impressing your pals, co-workers and potential clients. You may even get a new contract or business partner out of it!
