Yes, business cards are still a thing! Much of a modern business owner's communication exists only in the digital world, so it may seem like handing out a business card is a little old-school.

Why are Business Cards Still Relevant?

There are plenty of circumstances where having a business card is beneficial and, often, crucial for growth and prosperity. Even if you work solely online, at some point, there will be a time and place where you will want to have a physical card to leave so people will remember you:

  • Meeting with new clients
  • Working a business expo or tradeshow
  • Prospecting for new business
  • Networking with colleagues or other companies

No matter who you meet face to face, you'll want to leave a lasting impression. If you provide a new client with a creatively-designed card complete with your contact information, you are sure to stand out from the rest and gain the business you deserve.

What Should Be on a Business Card?

The standard dimensions of a printed business card are 3.5 x 2 inches, which doesn't leave much room. But that's good! You don't want to be wordy or give too much information for the potential contact.  Keep the details straightforward and to a minimal, but be sure to include the following:

  • Full name and professional title
  • Company logo/business name
  • Phone number and email
  • Website URL (if it is different than email)
  • Primary social media handle/s

Also, don't cut corners! Be sure you use professional-grade card stock for printing.  There are many affordable sources online for quality business card printing both at home and by mail or pickup. Overall, the goal of a business card is to provide whoever you just met with a reminder of who you are, what you do, and why you might be a useful contact. At the same time, you must consider how you can make your card stand out from the rest.
