Business cards with a twist
By Florie Lyn Masarate
Ever felt how wonderful it is to have your name in print for the first time? This is not just any ordinary printing with you name and details in them. They are your own business cards. Any other of these cards would contain names, addresses and contact numbers. That would be the typical business card.
These days, business cards are made into marketing tools to promote the owner’s business and a source of advertisement that serves as reminders for people reading them. As small as these cards may see, they have been a necessity for information getting since then. These have become the perfect equipment for entrepreneurs to be able to get clients and stay of their competitors.
As a marketing tool, these small prints need all the marketing strategy they can get to maintain effectiveness. Using all the right techniques with the modern machines, you have made the perfect business card. This would mean that you have gotten the attention of the holder. The next big thing to be considered is the content of the card. Does it appeal as much as the designs do? The most commonly overlooked marketing factor in business cards is the message that the card conveys. What does it say to the people reading them?
Having the perfect look and designs does not always guarantee customer response using these cards. It is important to note the words that are used to describe the business, its products and the services rendered.
To begin with, the slogan or logo should be able to make the reader isolate your card from others. People tend to just set aside these cards along with other cards and files, to be searched on later when the need arises. Making your card as unique and a standout would distinguish it from those others. When the time comes for it to be of use, something about the card that the readers have seen would come to mind and they would remember that certain card. It could be the printed words, or the drawings that are inherent in them, or a design that was stuck to memory. Or the contents. It gives them a good reason to choose and call you.
A bottom line that is irresistible would definitely arouse enough interest to set you apart from the rest. An example is phrases that offers discounts, new products and promos. These can guarantee customers coming and going back to know more. Putting motivational lines that opens the door for them to respond to you is also a must. It is best to not let customers left hanging in confusion as to what to do next after reading your cards. Guide them on what to do next by giving hints about it in your cards. There is always no harm in a bit of guidance.
Business cards may be small and seemingly insignificant, but they are also easy carriages. What’s more, they are continuously being passed on. You never know who its next holder would be.
