Today I received a suggestion of how to redesign the business card I am making for myself as an artist. I wasn’t sure I liked the idea (after all, I had an idea that worked!) But I am usually open to others’ suggestions because I find it often enhances my own work and vision.

I would greatly appreciate feedback how people react to this card compared to the horizontal card I created a few days ago. You can see the horizontal card in the post Business Card for Art Business. I do like the fact that the images are a little larger so you can see a bit more detail. But it also feels awkward to me that the list of types of work I create are not visible at the same time as the images themselves. Given that the business cards are for you – the collector (potential or current), I particularly want to hear from you which card would work better for you.

The person making the suggestion wanted to make sure that my Mission Statement was highly visible. Others call this a statement of purpose, Unique Selling Proposition (USP), business philosophy or positioning oneself in the market. Tomorrow I am going to focus on the USP and share my own process, information and resources.

Please do give me feedback about the business cards!
