Because we read from left to right, our brains are trained to work horizontally.  It is easy to fall into a horizontal trap when marking your business as well.  When promoting your business, it is important to think outside the box, especially in today’s competitive economy. 

When designing custom business cards, ask yourself, “Would a vertical design work for me?”  For example a vertical business card may work well for a bakery that specializes in tiered wedding cakes, or a construction company that erects buildings.  A vertical card allows for design options that may not have been possible otherwise and will stand out against the competition.    

Consider a vertical design when creating custom banners as well.  An eye-catching, vertical banner that promotes a sale or special event can be hung on a tree, out a window, or alongside a door.  To design your own business card or banner, simply upload your own design or choose from hundreds of designs online. 

Think Vertical!
