Why Business Card still matter?
In this day and age – where everyone has smartphones and all information can be shared thru the internet, you may be wondering about the practicality of having or owning business cards.
Despite the fact that everything we do in business today is digital, the business card is one thing that will not be fully replaced by internet or social media anytime soon. The tradition of exchanging business cards is not a dying art.
Here are 3 reasons why Business Cards is still a necessity.
1. Exchanging Business card is PERSONAL
Doing business is all about making sincere relationships and connections. Although sending contact details via text or email is convenient and efficient, engaging in eye contact and actual conversation is how real relationships begin. This is what exactly exchanging of business cards create: a potential lifelong business partnership that starts with simple gestures like eye-to-eye contact and one on one conversation.
2. Business cards shows your PROFESSIONALISM
“The tiniest things we do send out the biggest messages,” as the saying goes. Something as simple as calling cards is an indication that you actually took the time to put your information in a card. This immediately sets you apart from 99% of the other business people out there who didn’t even bother to bring business cards with them cause they think it is no longer necessary. Giving your business cards to potential business partners and clients make you look savvy and professional.
3. Business cards show your PREPAREDNESS.
Have you ever had someone write his or her contact information on a napkin and give it to you? How about someone that had a mobile phone with a dead battery? That’s really unprofessional, and who wants to do business with unprofessional people like that?
If you had a meeting with 2 prospect business clients and one was scrambling to find a pen and paper to write on and the other person simply pulled out a business card, who would you want to do business with? Showing that you are prepared at all times is a great indicator and reflection of your professionalism.
Fear not. Conversations will still end with, “Let me give you my business card,” at least for a little longer.
