Include identifying information on your business card: where the character is located (city, state, etc.), contact information (phone number, email address, or address,) his or her talents, accomplishments, job (if that applies,) words or phrases that describe the character, and other interesting information. If needed, you may make up the contact information. Make sure all your other information is from the book. 3. Design a creative logo for each character's business card. Your designs should be related to the characters or to the book. 4. For ideas on what business cards look like, have a parent help you search online for examples. You can also often find business cards available at restaurants, doctor’s offices, and stores. Your business cards should be interesting and creative, but they should also be easy to read. 5.
