I must stress, this is a work in progress. I am not sure as to what I am going to add or if I am going to change the design completely. Anyway here is the initial idea I had for the business cards for my company that I am starting.

Business Card (http://www.coryanderson.com/businesscard.jpg)

Please ignore the illustrator lines. This is obviously just a screen shot.

Drop the finger print.

yeah I'd drop the fingerprint as well. And maybe add a small version of the logo somewhere.

That better?

I am not really sure I like the logo in the background like that. That may just be me though. Another small thing, the title of 'co-owner' seems a little weak. I think you should have a more descriptive title of what it is that you do there adn would sound better from a technical standpoint.

Hmmm guess I should concentrate more on my other designs. This is one of four I am working on.

It's a little tough to put all the things I will be doing on a business card. It would get a little long winded. It would be like Web Designer / Graphic Artist / 3d Artist / Co-Owner / Production Manager / etc.....

But thanks for the comments guys, guess I was going in the wrong direction.

Looks like I'm writing another novel...

Depending on how you set up the company you may be assigned (or have to choose) a title. Like president or CEO, on my card I'm just "Designer" (I used to be Head Designer until someone asked me if I designed heads).

It may be useful to list a couple of services on your card, so when a person looks at your card in two weeks he remembers exactly what you do or why he was talking to you.

A lot depends on how you are using your cards. Are you going to be giving cards to everyone you see or just clients or people who express and interest? Some businesses I deal with go though 500 cards in 2 years while "active" people may go though 2000 cards in a couple of months.

Another thing to consider is that Internet technologies and computers in general are fairly new so people don't always differentiate between different technologies. I have a few clients wanting me to host sites and such, which I don't do (I had a lady last week phone me up and say "I want flash"). If you are going to be dealing with large businesses that have been around for along time then their management will probably be "old school" and not understand anything. What I'm trying to say I guess is that I think you should either put a couple of services you offer or a short phrase like "internet design house" on your card.

You will probably end up with so much info on your card that you will want to get rid of the contact info and visit our website lines. Have you looked into toll free numbers? Usually you are charged per use not a monthly fee. A cell phone is very handy as well plus a fax for invoices forms etc.. All that adds three more numbers to your card.

On your e-mail you may want to set it up more formally in case you do really well and have to hire more people (like another Cory), it also makes it look like you're bigger than you really are

freakyclean

well said freakyclean, I agree.

Some title suggestions:

Creative Director
Graphic Designer
Senior Designer

I used to be Head Designer until someone asked me if I designed heads

:D
Just some ideas.

Yeah, i would agree with freaky.

On another note, i looked at the phone number and because of the formatting i instantly thought "IP Address".

Down here the phone numbers are formatted (02) 1234 1234
And ive seen the phone numbers up there as 123-456-7890

Better than .'s

heheh...I think he learned the '.' from me. I actually prefer that format, but anything other than the standard '-' is good.

Geez designers...
:)

I think you could try to work on the company name. just put some colors and a basic bevel to emphasize the name.
