Business Card Design Brief
RampRate is a consulting company working with very large businesses like eBay, Microsoft, Intel & Fox. We are launching a new website that uses a different color scheme and want redesigned business cards.
The old site is at www.ramprate.com. The new color scheme can be seen at www.ramprate.com/v2.
IMPORTANT: We are moving to emphasis the up caret in our logo: "^". You see it between the words "Ramp" and "Rate" in our logo on the v2 page. We want to see ideas using the "^" symbol as a prominent design queue on the card. Even better if the design can incorporate a feeling of upward movement in the "^". Note that we'd like the "^" incorporated in the color design treatment of the whole card - not just the little caret in the logo.
The design should communicate professionalism and excitement, but not be quirky or comical - a little staid but not boring. Colorful but not a circus or childlike feel.
Target Market(s)
Business professionals at very large tech and financial companies. Some are very casual at work, but others are suit/tie types so it's a spectrum.
