Business Card Help - I Need Ideas

By Andrew Flusche

It’s time to make some professional business cards for myself. But I don’t want to be stodgy and boring. Can you provide any advice?

I want my cards to coordinate with my law firm website and letterhead. I plan to keep it fairly plain for now. Hopefully in a few months I can have a professional logo designed and re-image everything.

Erica Douglass has a great new card design that I just love. But I’m afraid that’s a bit too fun for a lawyer. Maybe not.

Would you be scared to hire a lawyer that has a creative business card? Or would you appreciate the uniqueness? Maybe I’m limiting myself too much.

Here’s what I have so far:

Front of card

The grey blob on the bottom left is my address. I don’t have my business address setup yet, so I blurred out my home address.

Back of card

The idea here is to provide a little insight into me. The fourth and fifth spots are for the recipient to fill in with info of his/her choosing.

What do you think?

I really would like your advice. You’ve seen thousands of business cards in your time. How do mine stack up?
