Make Your Business Cards Shine - Tips from printplace

Hello, I'm Katie from PrintPlace.com. Last time we talked about designing business cards with die cuts. Click the link below to see the video. Today I'm gonna talk with you about putting the finishing touches on your business card. First, let's talk about paper type. We offer fourteen point uncoated one-sided gloss and two-sided gloss. Next, our printing options are four color front and four color front and back. The four color front is a classic look most business cards have. Four color front and back is good for having a logo on one side and your contact information on the other. That way your branding is always present to your customer. Next let's talk about coating options. There are benefits to each coating depending on the design. This is our uncoated card. It has a matte finish. Next we have the aqueous coating. It has a water based gloss. It's a clean finish and adds shine, but not much as the high gloss. Also we have the dull UV. It has a satin finish. Because it makes the color dull, it's better for subtle designs rather than vivid photo design. Last is our high gloss UV. It's very glossy. It makes colors vibrant and pop. It gives the appearance of an actual glossy photo, so it's better for photo or illustration-based designs with vivid colors. Now that you've chosen your paper and coating options, let's talk about die cuts. We offer a one-fourth and one-eighth radius. You should know the benefits of choosing a die cut for your business cards. Click the link below to see the video. Overall what I suggest is for you to see and touch the options yourself.
