			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a class="highslide" onclick="return vz.expand(this)" href="http://rowandesign.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/personality-cards.jpg"><img src="http://rowandesign.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/personality-cards-180x108.jpg" alt="personality cards" title="personality cards" width="180" height="108" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-259" /></a>Business cards are more than just a Rolodex entry. They are a foot in the door with potential customers. They are your most affordable piece of printed marketing. They are a reflection of your business in the eyes of the customers.</p>
<p>Your business card should be attention grabbing, easy to read, and something that people will want to show off &#8230; something that people will pick up several of so they can give some to their friends. A good card gets calls. A <em>great</em> card gets passed around.<br />
These four business card designs were each created for maximum impact within the client&#8217;s budget. Although all the cards are art related and the layouts are relatively similar, the differences are astounding. The choices of typeface, color, and graphic elements create a unique personality for each.</p>
<p>Your business card shouldn&#8217;t just be a piece of paper with your contact information. It should be a design that makes people stop, look, and remember.</p>
