Question
How do I choose the right business card quantity planning approach?
Answer
The right quantity depends on how often you hand cards out and how stable your information is. Order enough to cover your networking without printing so many that details change before you use them.
| Role | Suggested quantity |
|---|---|
| Frequent networkers | 500 to 1,000 |
| Small business owners | 250 to 500 |
| Freelancers starting out | 100 to 250 |
- Count upcoming events: stock up before conferences and market seasons.
- Check information stability: order fewer if your number, title, or address may change soon.
- Reserve specialty for targets: premium or plastic cards work best in smaller, high-value quantities.
