Hello all. I've searched this one, nothing that quite meets what I wanted to ask (although there was a good comedy thread...).
Basically, I'm a student looking at getting some business cards for networking events, with the intention of getting a card back in return being just as important as the card selling myself. Just wondered what people's opinions on the design of a good business card should be?
My inclination is something super simple, cream card with black lettering and that's it. Reasons being that I don't want to appear flashy when I haven't even graduated let alone worked my way up a ladder. On the other hand, there's the argument that a card should be memorable, but I'm not selling a service here, I'm looking to get an internship.
Anyway, feel free to offer opinions, what kinds of cards have people here invested in?
If it helps I'm studying Computer Science.
Oh and opinions on whether the business card holder should be inexpensive or expensive also welcome.
