Business Cards obsolete?

In this age of virtual relationships, Tarik Toma, business coach based in Stockport reinforces the number one Business Card message to business owners
Business cards will always be important since virtual relationships will never replace having an in person meal with someone.”
Business owners who make a habit of networking in the Stockport area will always exchange business cards. The business card provides a talking point and allows the recipient to make notes about where the contact took place.
For this reason it might be best to avoid gloss cards with finishes that won't take ink.
Having exchanged business cards, the details on the card can be recorded on return to the office; either for further sales contact such as part of an email campaign, or to follow up on a query.
Business card scanners are available and for advice on technology products in Stockport you can contact Intellect Computers on Wellington Road, Stockport. For scanning a small number of Business Cards you could try an App on your mobile phone.
The contact details can be scanned into a software contact management system such as Outlook.

How much are your business cards?

This is one of the most common questions I am asked by a business customer. It is a difficult question to answer because it depends on the type of business card you want.
There are free offers available and these offers are valuable in situations when time and appearance aren't important, such as a change of address notification to friends and family. We even offer a free business card ourselves. There isn't really a snag, for Minuteman Press, Stockport, it is a way of starting a relationship and proving the efficiency of our service.
The most basic of our business cards is the digital full colour business card and these are available in any quantity and can be supplied to our walk-in Stockport and Manchester area business customers with in a matter of hours. For larger quantities (for example, a thousand upwards) they become expensive compared with our standard ink printed versions. For speed, unless you want a really basic business card design, you'll have to bring, or email, your own design or create one on-line at one of our business card template web sites. Designing your own business card can be fun though the Minuteman Press, Stockport design site but takes time and please get someone to check the spellings and contact details.... Business Cards with crossings out don't make a very good impression when networking with other Stockport and Manchester business owners.

Well, what types of business cards are available, then?

There is a rich source on-line for business card designs. Here are a few ideas with notes to guide you about the print specifications.
Business card spot varnished

This card has a gloss spot varnish picking out the lettering. The business card will need a matt laminated layer as well so this will add to the cost. This particular card also has rounded corners, this is another finishing process and will add another cost!
Business card with soft beer mat type material

Unusual shaped business cards keep cropping up when I am networking with Stockport and Manchester business owners and being of a creative frame of mind love them. Other networkers say [citation required], though, they don't store very well and the business card is best kept to a standard European size of 50mm x 90mm. This will also keep costs down, anything out of the ordinary always costs more.
Pete of Everylastpixel using a similar material for his card and there is a snappy Youtube video clip of it being made on his lovely web site.
