Although info about your product and company is indeed paramount, a business card is too small to print all content. This is why your business card should be simple: limited to essentials.

That is right. A minimalist business card design featuring a lot of white space and your information in a darker tone will catch the eye than an edgy model. Therefore, you should consider skipping full-color printing and go for a unique print element to add visual interest. For example, think of a design featuring subtle stripe in a special paper without interfering with legibility. And, you know what? If white appears too stark, use a color plan to pick what matches your brand.
