Business Cards - Does Yours Get The Message Across?
Your business card is the most important advertising tool to have. More importantly it needs to be on you at all times. Opportunity can arise anywhere, and you need to be prepared. The last thing you need is to lose potential business because you haven't got a 'card' on you.
The information on your business card and how it is presented is equally important. Let's face it, how many times have you been given a business card with just someone's name and telephone contact, and maybe possibly an email address. Then if your like me, a few days or a week later you look back on the card and 'cant' remember for the life of you' what business the person on this card represented or what you discussed. Get my point!
So at minimum I suggest the following in recommended order for maximum effect:
Your Company Name
Your Name
Your Title
Your Mobile Number / Business line number(both if possible)
Your website address
Your Email Address
Use the back of the card to note what your business is about in one line
You may also want to include other forms of social media for contact onthe back, such as skype, twitter or facebook
If you use an online service such as www.Vistaprint.com where they ask for address lines use these for your mobile and website and email address instead of an office address.
Remember your business card should reflect what you and your business are about, leave no doubts in the other persons head when they walk away and look at your card days or months later.
