While the world has transitioned steadily into the digital realm, there’s been a renewed interest in the power of printed materials. Things like beautiful packaging, business cards and of course, stationery.

When you think of stationery, the stodgy designs of our parents’ annual newsletters or the stern typefaces of a lawyer’s letterhead might come to mind. But stationery comes in many forms, from bold and fun to classy and elegant and everything in between. And the best part is, it’s a part of your brand you can hold in your hand. An email dashed off can always get your basic message across, but there’s no denying the weight of a real letter, whether you choose to type or write it out.

Designing your business stationery can be a daunting task. But you don’t need to worry because we have some tips for you that will make it easier. We've gathered some of the best tips for designing the perfect business stationery. From choosing your card to deciding on what type of printer to use, these are all great points to keep in mind when designing your own business stationery. You might not be a graphic designer or a stationery expert, but we can help you make your business stationery look great! Here are some of the key things to keep in mind when designing your business cards:

1. Make sure that the design is simple and clean. This will make it look more professional and trustworthy. Do not make your design too busy, it can be distracting and it needs to functional.

2. Keep your logo consistent on all of your business stationery items like compliment cards, letterheads, envelopes, etc. This will help people remember your company more easily when they see it elsewhere in their day-to-day lives.

3. When designing your business card size, make sure that it is not too big or too small for the pocket or purse of the person who might be carrying it around with them all day long to show off their own company’s logo and contact information

4. Put your company logo on the top of the card. Some companies have their name on the left of the card while others have their company logo on the top of it. It all depends on what you think is best for your business.

5. Paper material: While many people will suggest that paper is just paper, this isn't always true. There are several factors that come into play such as colour, weight and thickness which all need to be considered.
