You have printed your business cards and now you want to distribute them. But where to start? Here are five smart ways to distribute your business cards:
1. Give your business card instead when there is someone who asks for your contact number
When you are talking to someone and you are interesting enough to them, what they will usually do is asking for your contact number. Instead of telling them right away, you can give them your business card as you’ve got more information provided in your business card.
2. Leave your business card in a restaurant or a cafe before leaving
Having finished eating in a restaurant or a cafe, you should not leave right away. Instead, take out your business card, leave one or two on the table. Other visitors may be interested in your business cards and contact you later. Who knows, right?
3. When distributing brochures or flyers, distribute your business cards as well
