It is an essential branding tool for your business and has every potential to get you new business, provided you know how to use it. When you hand over your business card to a client, you expect him to contact you for your product or service, but have you ever thought, why should he contact you and not your competitor, if he has both the cards? This is where a well-planned business card gives you the advantage. Your business card must have something in it that would create an interest in the prospect to contact you. There are several ways to do this. a) You can add a tag line to your business card that speaks about your USP. b) You can offer a discount to people purchasing your products if they present your business card while purchasing. c) You can have a small survey at the back of your business card and ask the people to fill it up and submit back to you or your shop and they are eligible for some discount or prize based on a draw on those surveys. At the same time, when they come to return you those survey cards, don't forget to give them a new business card without any survey.
e) Give your business cards to all your first time customers and promise them a discount on repurchase ' this can be highly effective to increase your customer loyalty. You must also understand that when I say that your business card should get you more business I don't want your business card to look like a billboard. You must be careful while drafting your business card and ensure that along with your contact information it has got just the minimal information that is required to prompt a prospect to initiate an action that can culminate to a sale. You should also take proper care about the design and the quality of paper that you use.
