How to Make Luxury Business Cards

As a crucial networking tool, your business cards do so much more than just share your contact information–they represent you. A business card design should reflect your business style and company branding. High-quality business card printing combines premium materials with intentional designs. When you hand a card to a client, acquaintance, or coworker, the recipient will instantly be impressed. A premium print reveals an investment in your business that makes an exceptional first impression. 

Why are premium business cards important?

The best luxury business cards elevate your brand while still incorporating all your important information. Small details, such as a weighty paper stock, delicate metallic foil, or elegant raised UV gloss, can elevate an otherwise simple design. These elements, though seemingly small, show an attention to finer details—an approach that, hopefully, carries over to your business practices. A well-crafted business card adds a touch of credibility to your professional presence.

Of course, not everyone requires premium business cards. But anyone in a high-end field would do well to invest in the best business cards available. Luxury real estate business cards, for example, are a crucial tool for high-end realtors. Luxury car business cards can benefit personal drivers or luxury car dealerships. Sales associates at luxury retail stores who want to build relationships with repeat customers should have an impressive business card. Prominent corporate professionals, people who offer luxury services, or anyone else who works with an upscale clientele. 

If you’re ready to enhance your business cards, here is how you can design cheap luxury business cards that don’t sacrifice quality.

Trifecta Business Cards

A thick cardstock instantly makes your custom business card more impressive. That’s why Trifecta, GotPrint’s signature paper stock, is the best option for high end luxury business cards. When compared to a standard 14 pt. paper, the sturdy 38 pt. material is markedly different. A thick business card feels far more luxurious in the hand, and it clearly stands out in a stack of flimsier alternatives. 

The velvet touch finish adds to the expensive feel. But what also sets Trifecta business cards apart is the colored core. Available in black, red, blue, and green, the inner layer provides an eye-catching pop of color to your business card design. The colors aren’t painted on the edge; instead, the colorful core is woven together, resulting in a long-lasting, vibrant shade. 

Handing someone a soft touch Trifecta business card instantly gives you an advantage in a networking environment.

Raised Foil Business Cards

Paper stock isn’t the only way to craft luxe personalized business cards. Unique design elements, such as foil printing, can also enhance your custom business card design. Custom foil business cards add metallic elements to any part of your design – text, logos, graphics, or patterns. These sophisticated elements are raised, which adds textural contrast between the 16 pt. matte paper and the foil. 

Raised gold foil business cards will look lavish and extravagant, while raised silver foil business cards offer sleek, modern designs. For a trendy alternative, design raised rose gold foil business cards. Finance professionals, jewelry companies, executives, and luxury retail workers often use foil business cards.

Raised UV Business Cards

If foil doesn’t match your style, then raised spot UV business cards are an excellent alternative. These embossed business cards feature smooth gloss over specific portions of your design layout. Some people print their company name with raised UV gloss, while others have a glossy pattern. You have the ability to apply the gloss to any area of your design, which means you don’t have any color limitations. You can even control how opaque your UV print is, which will change how glossy the final print appears. 

The raised spot UV creates a smooth texture that is raised above the 16 pt. matte paper stock. This tactile print creates luxury you can feel. Embossed gloss business cards are popular for high-end creative industries, such as photography, beauty, and wellness.
