If you answered mostly A’s: You’re a professional, and you don’t mess around. Think linen or silk-laminated business cards as the finish for you. They convey class, prestige, and their sturdy stock will never look tattered or worn, especially if you choose the silk laminated cards. Add spot UV for an extra touch of class.

If you answered mostly B’s: You’re creative, you have a lot of ideas, and you like to have choices. In fact, you have trouble sticking to just one ANYTHING. Why not choose a card that lets you embed up to three images on its face? Our 3-D lenticular business cards allow you to do just that.

If you answered mostly C’s: You like things clean and neat and crisp. Our plastic business cards embody all of those things. They hold up to all kinds of wear and tear and they come in three varieties: Clear, frosty, and white.

If you answered mostly D’s: You’re smart, innovative, and free-thinking. You may work in media, performance, art, or design. Foil-stamped business cards with spot UV and silk lamination are the ones that will give you the freedom to best represent your creative self. With all these textures and colors at your fingertips, you’re bound to wind up with a card that’s nearly as expressive as you are.

If you answered mostly E’s: You may be a stay-at-home mom or dad, but that doesn’t mean you can’t use a business card. You can design a personal card for socializing and coordinating play-dates and carpools with other parents, plus your kids’ teachers and coaches. Elite Flyers’ full-color business cards printed on thick 16-pt card stock are the perfect format for a simple yet attractive card that’s much easier than typing numbers into smart phones while balancing a child on each hip.
