Do you carry business cards? Some people have started to avoid them and exchange phone bumps to transfer contact details. Others take pictures of the card but don’t accept it to transport home. I’m an avid business card collector. They help me remember the contact and put some context around the conversations.
Sometimes I run across business cards that stop me in my tracks. They tell a story, and they are memorable. In this edition of Print Sample TV, I share some of the best business cards collected from trade events. From a FlexPak business card to one that concisely describes the many opportunities to work with the person named on the card, these are the ones to use as a model for your business card and the story it tells.
Watch the business card episode, and explore the whole 70+ playlist here.
