Many people might say that a business card is not needed. We see business cards everywhere around us. There are many ways a business card can be used that you might not have even thought about. Here are 9 ways that you can use your business cards.
Networking
Networking is the normal use for business cards. We design cards to make sure that it has our business name, our name, number, and then make sure that the card keeps the brand.
Membership Card
The size of a business card is also perfect for membership cards. These cards can be membership cards for a business such as a country club
Appointment Card
Many doctor offices will hand out appointment cards. These cards are to remind people about their next visit. You could use these for any business that has appointments such as dress shops, hair salons, nail salons, etc.
Bag Stuffer
If you have a trade show and you need to write information on a small card, you can order business cards for that too! Write information on the cards about your business, write down your next big event, and then just drop these cards in bags to give away. It is a very easy way to advertise your business at a trade show.
Coupon or Discount
Business cards can be used as coupons or discount cards! Some stores will use hard plastic, but business cards will work just as fine. You could use a heavier stock and it would be just as nice.
Raffle
Have a big raffle coming up for your business? Just use business cards to get the name, email, and number of those entering in the contest and drop these business cards into a huge bowl. This is a great way to build your phone number and email lists also!
Loyalty Card
Loyalty cards are growing faster every day. People love to be rewarded with free stuff, even if it takes them a while to get there. People can buy 5 drinks and then get the sixth one for free! Loyalty cards are a great way to have people come back to your business. Hopefully by the time they are done with the card they will want another one and keep coming back.
Event Ticket
All tickets don’t have to be the same size. Tickets can be the size of business cards too!
