When the issue of getting a business card arises, people usually opt for black and white business cards, which is not necessarily a bad thing, but you should want your card to be memorable. An easy way of doing that is by using powerful colors like red, green, blue, yellow. Full color business cards will have more chances of being remembered than black and white ones.
