If you are looking for something that can put you a step ahead of your competition; this is a great idea. There might be a little bit of cost in the beginning, but the payoff at the end will be well worth it.
If you think business cards are boring, hold on. There is a relatively recent trend in super-specialized business cards that proves the little card you thought was just real estate for your name and contact information has become a showcase for creativity.
While many people have a supply of standard business cards for everyday use, some have also invested in specialized cards that reflect their product and personal style. This is a smart move because specialized cards create quite the buzz.
Business cards are easily customizable nowadays. All it takes is a little planning and creativity. A florist or gardener, for instance, could have a mini-seed-packet business card with contact information on the front and planting instructions for the seeds on the back.
An interior designer might choose a card that reflects some tools of the trade. Their business card might look like a paint chip or even a wallpaper sample. Some engineers have even designed cards with precut sections that can be popped out and reassembled into something useful, reflecting their engineering prowess.
So, would a specialized card be worth the investment? Definitely! Especially if you are attending a large conference, where you want to stand out from the crowd. But be careful! A unique card is an attention grabber, and with all the traffic that your super-personalized card is going to send your way, you’ll want to make sure you have enough for everybody!
