Business Cards Still Matter

Technology has improved so much in such a way that everything is done digitally. 
We now have digital marketing, skyping etc. 

We now know that technology has improved a lot hence more and more businesses have jumped into digital. This is really a good thing but there are some things that will never change, a tangible business card will always be relevant. It doesn’t matter which business you’re in, you still need a tangible business card.

A business card gives a first impression of your brand.
When you happen to meet someone who could be a potential customer, the first thing you’d want from this person is that he or she receives a great impression of your brand. A stunning and memorable business card does a lot more than just pass on an email address or phone number. When making a connection via a business card, you wouldn’t want your brand to be associated with the word “cheap”. When someone asks for your business card, you wouldn’t just want to tear up a piece of paper and write your contact details with your ugly handwriting. Believe me; doing that will set a bad impression on your brand, even if your level of service is brilliant. First impressions last longer, trust me.

Exchanging contact information digitally is way more impersonal
We all understand that networking make real connections. Sending contact details digitally is super convenient but way too impersonal. When two individuals exchange contact details digitally, that will not create a significant memory of the encounter.

Business cards are the most effective marketing tools.

We are quite aware about search engine optimization and other media do a brilliant task in attracting leads and prospects but I can tell you this, till this day, tangible business cards are more effective because when you give it out to  a potential client, chances are, the potential client will put the card in his or her wallet. We all know that people tend to reach out for their wallets every now and then, so your brand will be more common in their eyes, so the moment they happen to need services relating to yours, you’ll be the first option to pick.

There, you have it Good Folk! A tangible business card is still relevant even in such a digital world.

Classic Business Tips

Always associate with people within your industry It is easy to learn from someone who is in your industry because they might know something you aren’t aware of.
