Designing a “Mini” Profile Business Card

Thursday, May 5th, 2011

Check out this miniature business card we created for Corey Rawdon. Using the popular Moo MiniCards we created a small but eye-catching card combining a profile image, important contact information and a QR code that directs traffic to a personal website. QR codes (click here to read recent opinion about them) have become popular ways to infuse traditional printed pieces with social interaction. They spark curiosity and when paired with a great design can increase traffic to special promotions and expanded media when advertising space is limited.

Scan this card’s QR code, and see where it takes you:

Along with the traditional links to social media spaces we also included a link to Corey’s Mashable Follow page, connecting followers to his personally-curated news feed.

 

Designing a Custom Twitter Background

Monday, May 3rd, 2010

Twitter has become one of the foremost social media tools in use today. A custom Twitter background can help your own brand (personal or business) stand out in a sea of social media applications. Instead of using a design template shared by thousands of other users, a custom background can provide your followers contact information, photos, and valuable insight into who and what you represent. The clear layout of content should capture the interest of online browsers — much the same way the home page of your website does; treating it as an extension of your online marketing creates a unified brand. Because no complicated coding is involved, the custom image is easily uploaded to Twitter and can be changed at any time — making it particularly useful for rotating promotional purposes.

Social media users are more likely to follow a company that is open and engaging. A custom Twitter background can give your published thoughts a personal touch and point new opportunities in your direction.

Here are a few we’ve finished recently, including a set for AmerisourceBergen Specialty Group. Don’t forget to follow us!
