Business Card Design in Marietta, GA
When you hand someone a card at a networking event or client meeting, that little rectangle says a lot about your business before you say a word. We design cards people actually keep.
The Problem
Most Business Cards End Up in the Trash
Most business cards are forgettable. Same layout, same thin paper, same basic template from a print shop. They do the job of sharing contact info, but they do not do anything else. For a local business in Marietta trying to stand out, forgettable is the last thing you want.
People have been saying business cards are dead for twenty years. But if you go to any Cobb Chamber event or local meetup in Marietta, you still see people swapping cards. There is a reason for that — a physical object stands out in a screen-heavy world.
The gap between a forgettable card and one worth keeping is tiny in cost. But the gap in the impression it leaves? That is where the real value shows up.
A physical object stands out in a screen-heavy world and creates a different kind of memory than a text or email
Swapping cards takes seconds at a busy event — no fumbling with phones or spelling out email addresses
Handing someone a card says 'let us stay connected' in a way that feels intentional and professional
Physical cards create a different kind of memory. People keep them on desks, in wallets, pinned to boards
Design Principles
What Makes a Business Card Great
Information hierarchy is everything. Your name should be the most visible element. Your title or company name tells them what you do. Contact info needs to be easy to read but should not take over the whole card.
The back of the card is real estate most people waste. A well-designed back might have a short statement about what you do, a clean visual element, or just enough white space to make the front feel more polished by comparison.
Premium Options
Paper, Printing, and Finishing Options
Premium Cardstock
16-point or heavier stock that feels solid when you pick it up. Cotton papers for a soft, high-end texture. Recycled options for eco-conscious brands.
Spot UV Coating
Adds a glossy shine to specific parts of the card, creating contrast you can see and feel against a matte background.
Foil Stamping
Gold, silver, or metallic colors that catch the light and draw the eye to key details like your logo or name.
Embossing & Debossing
Raises or presses parts of the design for a premium, three-dimensional feel that invites people to run their fingers over it.
Edge Painting
Adds a pop of color to the sides of the card — a small touch that gets noticed every time someone picks it up.
Letterpress Printing
Pushes the ink into the paper for a tactile, pressed-in feel that screams craftsmanship and attention to detail.
Our Process
How We Design Your Cards
Discovery Conversation
What does your business do? Who are you handing cards to? Where do you network? What do your competitors' cards look like? All of this shapes the direction.
Concept Development
We put together a few different concepts — maybe one clean and modern, another more traditional, a third that tries something unexpected. Seeing options side by side helps.
Refinement
We adjust colors, move things around, try different fonts. The goal is a card you actually get excited to hand out at your next networking event.
Paper and Finish Selection
We walk you through options and suggest what fits your brand and budget. A contractor might want sturdy and practical. A boutique owner might go for soft textures and subtle foil.
Print-Ready Delivery
We prep files for whatever printer you choose or handle the entire printing process. Cards ready for your next Cobb Chamber event or client meeting.
Beyond Standard Cards
Die-cut cards in a unique shape, folded cards with a mini portfolio inside, transparent or metallic cards that get a reaction every time. When your brand calls for something different, we can make it happen.
Brand Consistency
Your business card should look like it belongs with your website, letterhead, and signage. When everything matches, people recognize your brand faster. We make sure the card fits seamlessly into your visual system.
Team Templates
For businesses with a team, we build templates that keep your brand consistent while making it easy to swap in each person's name and title.

Business Card Design Questions We Get Asked
What do we need to get started?
If you have a logo and brand colors, that is a great start. If not, we can work with you to build those first. We will also want to know what info goes on the card, who you are handing them to, and what kind of impression you want to make.
Do you handle printing too?
We provide print-ready files and can point you to quality printers we trust. If you would rather not deal with that, we can coordinate the whole printing process for you so the cards come out exactly as designed.
How many design concepts do you show?
We usually present 2 to 3 initial concepts going in different directions. Once you pick a direction, we refine it based on your feedback until you are happy with it.
How long does the process take?
Most business card projects take 1 to 2 weeks from our first conversation to final files. If you have a networking event or deadline coming up, let us know and we will work around it.
Should our cards match our website and other branding?
Yes. When your card, website, signage, and other materials all look like they came from the same place, people recognize your brand faster. We make sure everything feels connected.

Your next networking event could go differently. Cards people actually hold onto. A first impression that sticks. Let us make it happen.
