Folded Business Cards

Folded Business Cards - The Mini Card Series

A folded business card holds promise. It offers more room for words, images, and the story you want to tell. A wise marketer knows the secret is not in filling every inch as white space, can be as powerful as any call to action. These cards, interactive by design, are crafted from sturdy 300gsm Kraft paper or the smooth elegance of 350gsm silk, they arrive flat, creased perfectly, ready for folding.

Here, creativity knows no bounds. Perhaps it’s a price list, a tiny menu, or a calendar tucked inside the folds. Maybe it’s a business card with a clever twist, offering just a little more than expected.

The only limit is your imagination, and of course, the font size. Keep it clear, around 8-10 points, so no one has to squint to see who you are. After all, you want them to remember you, not the struggle to read your name.  

A few ideas on how to best use folded business cards:

• Mini Brochure – but seriously teeny, so make sure every word counts.

• Appointment Card – We also have standard appointment cards.

• Menu – if you have a micro menu or specials, this could be a quirky take on a menu.

• Loyalty Card – We also sell self-inking stamps

• Event Invite – Why not use them as a little invite or a save-the-date style card?

• Portfolio Display – Artists, designers, or photographers can use the inside space to display a small portfolio of their work, leaving contact details on the cover.

• Discount or Promo Code – Add an element of surprise and pop a discount inside.

• Calendar – Though it be but small, it can be a sweet alternative to your phone calendar.

• Product Guide – Product instructions or setups that are sturdier than most.

• Storytelling Card –Make covers of your own book with the first paragraph printed as a little teaser (and maybe a little code for people to use against their purchase)

• Save-the-Date – personalise these for any functions.

• Networking Card – Think of it as a spotlight CV and include a short bio, key achievements, or professional milestones inside the fold to make a more personal impression at networking events.

• Travel Itinerary – Great for travel agencies, these cards can display trip details or promotional travel packages on the inside, along with contact information.

• Map or Directions – Get the footfall your shop needs and include a small map or set of directions that can be printed on the inside, making it easier for clients to locate you.

How To Set Up Your Design Files for Folded Business Cards

• When creating Folded Business Cards artwork, please supply your artwork as a 2-page PDF in spreads. For example, page 1 of your PDF should contain the outside spread of your Folded Business Cards artwork, and page 2 should contain the inner spread. 

• If you have a design with a solid background colour or areas of heavy ink coverage on or around the crease, we recommend adding lamination to ensure the perfect finish and to help prevent any cracking when the card is folded.

• Keep your text to 8pt minimum and avoid strokes for best results
