Everyone knows that if you own a business or provide some type of service you need to have a business card. Business cards are a means of marketing your company and telling a prospective client who and what you are – and what you do. But what exactly do you need to have on your business card?
Most people think that the standard items listed on a business card include:
The name of the company
Your title
Your address
Your other contact information such as e-mail address, telephone, etc.
Your services or specialties
But which of these items really need to be there? Let's look at them one at a time.
The name of the company – unless it is a big corporation with a brand name that will ensure that you get inside the door, the company name is not absolutely essential. Instead you can use something like "Make an Impression Using My Limo Services" if you are a limousine driver and want to increase your customer base. People will know that you have a limousine service so they don't need to know that the name of the company is ABC Services because it doesn't mean anything.
Your title – if your title really means something like an Engineering Consultant, then it's important to the services you provide. But if your title is Vice President of the B Team that doesn't really mean anything.
Your address – this is important because it confirms that you are a legitimate business. Many people who work from home do not like to put their address on their business card, but you need to have some address like a post office box so that people will have confidence that you are a legitimate business.
