Question
How much are business cards if I only need a small batch?
Answer
Small runs of 50 to 100 cards cost more per card because the fixed setup work behind every print job gets spread across fewer pieces. That is fine when you are testing a design or just getting started, but the per-card price drops noticeably once you move into larger quantities.
- Setup costs are the same whether you print 50 cards or 500, so fewer cards means a higher cost each.
- Small batches make sense for prototypes, short-term needs, or a design you are still refining.
- Ordering 250 or more usually brings a much better price per card.
- If you know the design is final, buying a larger quantity up front is the cheaper path over time.
