5 Reasons You Still Need Business Cards

In today's digital world you might think that business cards are no longer important. We do so much through technology that face-to-face interaction is more limited than ever. However, the business card is still not something that can be replaced. At Miami Flyers we work with customers every day who still recognize their importance. Here are 5 reasons you still need business cards:

1. It is the most effective networking method

Networking is all about making personal connections. When you email someone your information it may be convenient, but it is not very personal. When you can make eye contact with someone and hand them a card you can become memorable to them and start a real relationship.

2. They are still effective direct marketing tools.

Email, SEO, and other types of advertising can attract leads, but they still are no where near as effective as meeting someone in-person, shaking their hand, and giving them a business card. This is still the best way to attract new business. You also might meet a potential client at any time. Having business cards on you at all times ensures that you are always prepared for these opportunities. You should always have business cards in your pocket or purse.

3. A business card is a first impression.

This is the first way that people interact with your brand. It sends a message about what you
represent. This can't be duplicated by giving someone a phone number or email address to put in their phone. By using high quality business cards, like the kind we produce at Miami Flyers, you are able to make a memorable first impression and always have a great ice breaker. You can be sure that your business is always represented well.

4. Business cards can be shared.

When you give someone a business card, or multiple cards, they can be shared with other people. This puts your brand in front of additional prospects multiplying your networking and marketing efforts.

5 Business cards make you look prepared.

Have you ever met someone only to have them write their contact information on whatever happened to be around? This definitely does not look professional. What about if someone has a dead cell phone battery or can't find their phone? You want to send a message that you are always prepared. Having a business card ready and available will send this message.

It is clear that there are so many benefits to business cards that they are not going anywhere anytime soon. You definitely still need to have them for your business. Miami Flyers is happy to provide you with all of the business cards you need at an affordable price. Please contact us today!
