LetterPress Business Cards
|
Due to the rare nature of letterpress there will always be a slight difference in the intensity of ink used during printing. Solid areas of colour make it difficult to ensure consistency of colour and in most cases do not provide the desired letterpress impression as we required. This letterpress process is best suited to simple design. The other advantage of simple design is that we can have a good debossed effect. Each letterpress business card is printed by hand using traditional artisanal techniques, this means no two letterpress business cards will ever be identical.

Does Quality based velvet laminated business cards changes the perception of customers?
Last week, I meet one of my customer Corle Fourie who was in problem. He started a new business 2 months ago but unable to attract clients to expand his business. So,I provided him a solution to attend public meetings, social gatherings and interact with business owner by visiting them or may use door to door service. I advised Corle to left his business card with them after meeting. And within 4 days his business start growing at a pace. What thing make a difference in his method are business cards. Their are two reasons for that, Firstly, his clients who want to pursue business with him know about him and want to approach him but they couldn't as he didn't left any contact or business card with them. Secondly, The use of business card changes the perception of an individual mind as the client feel more reliable and attractive. Use of such luxury business cards act as a catalyst in promotion and raise trust of a client.
I recommended Corle a set of Velvet Laminated Business Cards that have a texture like the skin of fresh peach. This soft feel gives the card an edge over standard silk and matt laminated business cards making them an increasingly popular choice for companies looking for something different. That velvet laminated business card was enhanced with hot foil stamping using range of metallic foil colors. As it has matt like finishing so I applied spot gloss highlights in order to provide spot UV effect. Few of the samples are described below and for more click here:
The feel of business card have a dramatic effect on customers perception towards you, your brand and your products and services. Softer and heavier touches motivate customers and provide a feel of quality and positive persuasion. so, I do believe that use of velvet laminated business cards changes the perception of customers.

Matt Laminated Business Cards :
Matt Laminated Business Cards are printed full colour on
450gsm silk card. You can choose to have your business cards printed single-sided, or
double-sided. The cards are then finished with matt lamination in order to protect
their surface. Metallic foils can be added to these business cards using hot
foil stamping. We have a range of metallic foils to choose from
including the popular metallic gold and metallic silver. We also use a
clear gloss foil to apply spot gloss highlights (spot UV effect).
Clear gloss foil is used to apply spot gloss highlights to matt and velvet laminated business cards. Spot gloss is priced as a foil run and can be combined with other foil colours (e.g. spot gloss and metallic gold foil on a card). We also have a rainbow gloss foil which is clear, but changes
colour as it diffracts light across the colour spectrum and provide a rainbow effect. This foil works
best on light colours but can be used on darker colours too.These matt laminated business cards provide high visual impact as compared to other and also have a smooth touch and feel. So, I believe it is best to use matt laminated business cards over other as it will provide a positive impression on higher paying clients. I always advise you to choose professionals like AfterHoursCreative.
