Can you share your business card? Yes sure, lets tap and connect using my Digital Business Card!
As business folk the first thing we tend to do at the start of meeting a new client is to dish out the good old paper business card. The hope is that it is safely stored away, and you are contacted sooner than later to do business! A digital business card is possibly the game changer we have been waiting for.
And yes for years we exchanged our business contacts in this manner, hoping that this time, the person will in fact call to connect, and eventually become a client. Sadly though, printed business cards often end up in the bin. In fact, about 88% are thrown out within a week by one count.
What’s more, 63 percent of those who throw business cards away do so because they don’t have an immediate need for the service. Yikes, and when they do there is always google to check out service providers that are available. So much for all that costs outlay and hours spent networking.
So, how do we ensure our details aren’t buried in the trash, alongside crumpled paper & banana peels?
Digital business cards, like email signatures, are becoming the preferred way to “save to contacts” without the hassle of entering contact details. No more printing costs. No more carrying a box of cards around. Fit all your important business information onto one digital impression that’s ready to share, anywhere, anytime.
By enabling the near frequency connection (NFC) settings on your mobile device, once your card has been set up, you will be good to go. The NFC functionality has been around for more that 10 years and is the same technology that allows us to tap and pay with our bank cards. Something we are using more often since the COVID pandemic.
Still not convince? Here are some additional features.

Your digital business card is guaranteed for life, is editable as and when you need. Changing details, moving location, or even changing staff no longer will require printing of new and throwing away old business cards. Click, update and you are back in business.
