10 Additional or alternative uses for a business card

Published on April 18, 2011 by admin in Ideas, Portfolio, Print

Business cards are a great tool, and it’s often your first impression when meeting someone. Don’t blow a great meeting with a business card that doesn’t portray you in the best possible light.  Good design and quality stock don’t have to cost the earth.

1) A simple loyalty scheme. Collect 5 and get a free gift or discount.

2) Use the back as an appointment reminder. Ideal for Hairdressers and Garages alike.

3) Discount voucher. Print a code on the back of the card that people can use get a discount.

4) Introduce a new product with a small advert on the back.

5) Tell people you welcome referrals and put 2 of them in with invoices or products

6) Aide Memoire.  Converstion tables, calendar, ruler, hints and tips, important industry dates.

7) Social networking ID’s.  LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, Blogger.

8 ) Promote your strategic partners – promote their services and products, and vice versa.

9) Membership cards.  Leave a space to add account numbers and call them VIC (Very Important Customer) cards.

10) Fold one up and stop the pub table wobbling.
