BUISNESS CARD - Wat do you guys think?

BUISNESS CARD - Wat do you guys think?

Just a idea of a buisness card of mine im looking to get printend. Wat do you guys think?

Front

Back

Yeah take a look!

Front isn’t too bad, but the back looks awful!

Just keep the back clean, you don’t need that pick or the shit behind it.

I woudlnt go as far as awful but thanks for your crit

Yeah the back is awful, If I got handed that and looked at the back I wouldnt take it seriously.

Honestly keep it clean and simple, the lightning or whatever it is looks cheesy especially with the cdj’s.

If your insistent on having a picture on the back, have either a single cdj/turntable and scrap the lightning.

You asked for opinions, this is mine.

I would prefer no pictures of equipment on a card. Do you plan on being amobile DJ? Or why do you plan on making these?

The back is way to busy, and amateur looking. Needs to be cleaned up and streamlined.

I’d generally keep pictures on a business card to an absolute minimum. The format itself demands simplicity.

Spot on

This.

A business card is not a flyer.

If you leave the frontside as it is, you should have the backside in plain white and have your contact information on it in a traditional business card layout. No pictures in the background, no logos for youtube and soundcloud, no pictograms for phone and email.
If you absolutely have to have a graphic element on it, put a small version of your logo in a corner.

You also gotta think how this is going to look on a small business card. Sure, on the computer screen at that resolution, it’s at least readable. When you get those things printed out, it’s gonna look like a mess.

I do agree, though I think a black backside with white or yellow for the text might also work quite well (considering the colors of the front).
Oh, and regarding the front: the name is vertically off-center. That should be fixed!

I’m in Ad/web/commercial design professionally…don’t waste money printing that. Less is more bro. If you want to PM me I’m happy to help you out with the layout and also with what stock, finish and weight you should print at.

Just keep it simple and clear to the point. Also, in my opinion, the front should be the same background colour as the back.

Cheers pal yeah would appreciate that have you any tips?

Business cards really help. Where I’m from I still see my cards from 2 years ago floating around in peoples wallets. Make something you wont hate yourself for years down the road, so keep it simple. The logo on the front looks good, but the back is way too cluttered and generic. That Pio pic is my google chrome background so the second I saw it I was turned off.

I also realized when I made mine the first time that it costs so much more to have a 2 sided card, and if you can easily fit everything on one side it actually makes it more user friendly. My first ones (which I can’t find a picture of atm) was very simple - Black and white, one sided with a logo, phone number and soundcloud. Super cheap and clean and anyone who sees one automatically knows its mine.

Hope this helps.

Edit: Found a copy of my old business card - I’m sure some people will say it’s crap, but it worked great for me and I got a lot of positive feedback from my market, which are mostly non-DJ’s

I agree with most here. Lose the picture on the back. I personally think it be pretty classy to see the back side to have the same layout (font and info) with the colors reversed. Black background with Yellow font. BOOM! Done!.. :slight_smile:

Edit: Also, try and find a circular icon for the Soundcloud icon… for flow and OCD sake
