The business card is the most important piece of stationery that you will ever own. It is the first impression that you will give to potential clients and customers. Make sure that it stands out and makes a lasting impression. Here are four top tips for great business stationery:

1) Have a professional-looking design on your business card - The design of your business stationery can make or break it. Make sure that it has a clean, simple, and professional look to it. It should not have any distracting colours or graphics on it. This will help people focus on what you have to say instead of what is going on with the design of your card.

2) Choose high quality paper stock - The paper stock for your business stationery should be thick and durable, and it should feel weighty. The paper stock should also be thick enough so that it will not tear when you fold the card in half. Make sure you go for recognisable Compliment Slip size of DL or A6, Letterhead size A5 or A4 as these fit perfectly into standard envelopes.

3) Choose a low-key colour scheme - The colour scheme on your business stationery can add a lot of life and personality to your design, but if you choose too many colours, the design may become difficult to read or understand. A good colour scheme you may want to consider is greyscale with a pop of colour for your logo and branding.

4) Avoid using overused shapes and fonts - Overused shapes and fonts are difficult to read as they're common across many different designs. You'll want to avoid this so you can stand out in the crowd!
