Is there enough information on this business card? How about your business card?

Put as much information on your card as possible but always leave room for the recipient to make notes on the card. Encourage note-taking by including a place on the card marked "notes." See What information should go on a business card? to make sure you don't leave off vital details.
If all your needed information won't fit comfortably (and legibly) on the front, use the back of the card. Also consider a bi-fold or tri-fold brochure card. Make it a double-duty business card.
Including a lot of information doesn't necessarily mean having to use a lot of words. If your business name is clear and informative then taglines or other explanation may not be necessary.
Use short bullet point type phrases instead of long sentences.
If everything you want to put on the card won't fit comfortably and attractively, edit the text don't just shrink the font size.
