Elite Flyers offers high quality, fast return card printing, a bevy of features, superior customer service, and a number of other printing options to help brand your business in the public eye.

Differentiating the options in competing business card printing services can seem initially muddled. After all, business cards have been traditionally a straightforward 3.5 x 2 inches. This is the first place Elite Flyers sets itself apart from the pack. While a number of services offer more than just card printing, Elite Flyers steps it up a notch, offering more options than most businesses will use, everything from vertical and mini cards, to plastic cards and 3D printing. You might not need all the options, but their availability makes for an experience where you will unlikely wish for something that isn’t possible.

Designing your business cards is easy on a few different levels. You can create your own images and upload them to the Elite Flyer website or choose to use any of their online templates. There is little need to convert image files as most formats are accepted.  If you don’t have a specific image in mind or need some creative inspiration they even have stock photos available. As you design your business cards there are a variety of design options to choose from.

Where specific design options are concerned Elite Flyers again ups the ante. You can bleed edges, print front and back, and even include a QR code to direct people to your various social media options or business website. If going above and beyond with vibrant colors and schemes is what you want, Elite Flyers can help. But they also offer traditional schemes and nuanced alterations like rounded edges. The object is to be noticed. How you go about that is up to you, but having the ability to go any way is a big plus.

Options are only good if they can be used effectively. Here Elite Flyers shines. In addition to design tips and hints, you’ll find 24/7 support via live chat, email, and phone. Our review process saw quick response times as well, specifically with chat and email. The designers are available to assist the process of creating and printing business cards and our review process saw them go above and beyond, in both contact and content. Proofs are even available before printing.

As far as printing is concerned, Elite Flyers uses nothing less than 300 dpi and boasts turnaround times of 24-72 hours for most orders. The dpi is an industry standard and while turnaround times will vary, our review process saw consistency in the above range.

In addition to business cards Elite Flyers provides other printing options. Calendars, brochures, postcards and envelopes with address labels printed right on them are all available so as to keep standard marketing imagery as you get your business out there. All-in-all Elite Flyers offered everything we were looking for in business card printing, with support to back it up and enough additional options to set itself apart in the card printing sector.
