Business cards for
I’m curious - as a professional do you use them? Do you take action on them when you receive one? Do you think they’re dead?
Here’s my take:
People who don’t think business cards are relevant anymore must not get out often enough. And while technology is so helpful to cast that quick and wide networking net to a sea of strangers, what happens when you’re in those real life situations where you have a meaningful conversation with the stranger next to you and you want to connect with them long after that airplane lands or that bar has closed?
Sure you can whip out your phones and exchange IG handles or emails- (digital biz cards are rad too, but let’s save that for another rant). At the end of a great conversation, being able to hand someone a tangible item helps continue marketing your brand to that potential client long after you’ve parted ways.
