Founders need business cards – real ones, made of paper and ink.

Digital business cards might be getting more popular, but they introduce friction and potential errors. There's also zero chance a potential lead will rediscover a digital business card on their desk.

For this reason, we still believe in print when it comes to info exchanges. We will custom design a layout that matches your branding, then print and ship straight to your door.

Fun fact: TTS originally began as a design/print agency, and this is the one print product we still offer because... well, honestly just because Sarah freaking loves business cards.

If you also need help with a logo, domain name and/or email, check out our Startup Package, which includes business card design and printing.

Your next networking event won't know what hit them.

Our standard matte or gloss card is what most printers call a premium upgrade, and we love strategizing fun effects like raised spot varnish or painted edges. You bring the info, we'll bring the creativity.

We archive all artwork, so reorders (or adding a new staff member) are fast and easy.

Printing options are endless and extremely high quality. Choose standard matte or gloss, or add nearly any combination of silk and suede coatings, lamination, spot varnish, foil embossing, painted edges… combine a suede laminate with raised varnish and you’ll be sure to stand out.

Business Card Design Process:

  1. Pay for initial business card design and send us your logo and brand guide (or example materials).
  2. We will create a layout that matches your branding and email a PDF proof for review.
  3. Approve the proof for printing (or send revisions).
  4. After approval, we'll send the final invoice for printing.
  5. Upon payment, your business cards will be sent to print, and appear on your doorstep in 5-7 business days.
