A lot of people are trying to make their own card games right now. This is because they are very popular and very profitable as a business idea.

The possibilities are endless, with card games, when you think about it, because if the game is popular enough, you can branch out into the merchandise arena.

You can sell the rights to the merchandise to a production company, to make money that way, or if you have the time and money, you can produce the merchandise yourself.

If you look at some of the card games that are popular right now, they have computer games, plush toys, vinyl toys, stationery, and tech accessories as part of their business. Therefore, they are very profitable and game fans like to show their love for the game with accessories.

However, you’ll need to get the game off the ground and make sure it’s popular before you start thinking about making more money from the merchandise because if no one buys the game, they won’t buy the merchandise.

designing the game

Before you start looking at the production company, you should know what the game is about. There’s no point in hiring a production company if you have no idea what the game is going to be, then you’ll be wasting your time hiring someone to print the cards.

However, if you know of a printing company and they have a team of designers, you can contact them to see if they would like to work as a consulting team on game design.

Some production companies will allow their designers to work on a game for free if there is some kind of agreement where they will be the team that prints the cards once the game has been designed.

What producer?

As mentioned above, you may want to choose to team up with a design company, but there are other elements of the company to look for.

International delivery

One of the most important elements of a production company is that it must be available for international delivery. The card printing industry is global and if they don’t offer international delivery they may not have the expertise or high quality card printing.

However, it is up to you. If they can provide information about their past clients and the work they’ve done for them, you should consider giving them a try.

pay

Nowadays, you would expect a good company to have many payment methods. They must accept:

PayPal

Credit cards

Wire transfer

If they are stuck in the dark ages and only accept checks then you should consider using someone else. This is because checks will take a long time to clear and this could delay the production of your cards.

double-sided printing

If a company does double-sided printing, it should be given priority over any other company because it will greatly benefit them to print on both sides. This is because you’ll want your company logo on the back of the card and the actual game items on the front of the card.

Choosing a producer is very important to the success of your card game. You will want to make sure that they are affordable so that you can ensure that you can maximize profits. Just make sure you choose your company wisely.
