13 Executive Business Card Designs & Templates
Business cards are commonly used in today’s high-paced business environment. Even with the advent of new technology, business cards are still being used by individuals in multinational corporations, not only by entry-level employees but also by high-ranking company officers.
An executive is defined as an individual who holds a senior position in a company or organization. Most of the time, his tasks include creating policies and long-term plans for the company. A chief executive officer (CEO) is considered as an executive, and so are the chief finance officer (CFO), chief operations officer (COO), and senior managers. These days, being an executive is no longer tied to being a senior company officer but has become a title given to professionals working in any corporate field or industry regardless of their position in their respective companies.

Tips before purchasing business card templates
Before you decide to purchase any business card templates or any other templates in general, you should take note of a few things not only to get value for your money but also so you can receive a quality design as well.
Know your clients
As in every business, you should know how to approach and create a relationship with your client. Forging a great working relationship with your client is no easy task as it requires good communication and research skills.
The same situation applies for business cards. Before you start giving them out, you first need to do a comprehensive study or analysis. You just do not give out business cards to random people and expect them to buy your product or service. Identify your target market first so that you can know their preferences and needs.
Choose templates that use color
Having color in designs always adds to aesthetics and, overall, it creates a greater visual impact. You can always use the very popular black and white combination, but take note that using black and white almost always requires you to use another color to complement these two neutral colors. Since most templates are fully customizable, you can mix and match then edit your color schemes to create a more attractive business card design.
The safest color combination you can use are your own company’s colors. If the company you are working for uses red and white color concepts in the office interiors and exteriors as well as for marketing activities, you can use the same colors while adding a little bit of gold or grey for some added visual appeal.
Consider purchasing bundles
When you are looking for business card templates with numerous designs but do not want to spend too much, consider purchasing business card bundles. Bundles or packs contain two or more designs and usually cost the same as templates with only a single design. Bundles also contain high-quality designs so you do not have to worry about choosing the best design. If you have decided to purchase business card bundles, you can choose from a number of bundles from the list above.
Get approval from your boss
Even if you are the boss of your own company, choosing the best business card design still requires approval from a number of individuals. They can be your colleagues or people in the industry you trust. Getting their reactions or comments will be helpful when you are trying to figure out the final look for your business card.
