4 Great Business Card Ideas

HHow
often have you opened your office drawer to find a pen only to have to
search your way through a pile of business cards collected over the past few
months? Your immediate response is to throw them away and that's the problem
with business cards — they are usually unmemorable.
Here are some ideas on how you can
make your business card a bit more useful.
Handy Web Sites
On the reverse of your card, why not
list some web sites which your clients may find of use. They don't have to
be related to your line of business, for example you could print details on
a site providing a list of jokes (useful for speech writing!).
Do You Remember …?
Going to a networking event is the
equivalent to a business card swapping club! Once your card goes into
someone's drawer they are unlikely to remember where you met. So on the back
of the card, print "Do you remember we met at ……….and discussed …………"
This should be a good memory jogger!
Print Your Picture
Our minds are more efficient at
remembering pictures than words. Why not print your picture on your card?
When the recipient looks at your card sometime later, he is much more likely
to remember who you are and what you do.
What's The Date?
People are always scratching around
to find out what the date is. Print a calendar on the reverse of your card.
This gives an excuse for someone to keep your card permanently in his
pocket.
Take a fresh look at your business
card and see what you can do to make it more memorable.
