Besides offering multiple services, there are numerous other compelling reasons why every freelancer should prioritize getting a digital business card.
Traditional paper business cards often end up in the trash within hours of receipt. According to a recent Adobe study, a staggering some percentage of exchanged cards meet this fate. In contrast, digital business cards seamlessly integrate into a recipient’s phone as a contact card, eliminating the need for scanning or manual input.
Digital cards send a clear message that clients value: freelancers adeptly navigate various technologies essential for their businesses. By showcasing a range of apps and software they can use, freelancers demonstrate agility and technological integration. A pro tip: include links to all the apps and software you utilize!
Cost-effectiveness is another advantage. Designing and printing paper business cards, often ineffective, can be pricey and require reprinting, especially if you have multiple cards for different services. Conversely, the digital business card requires no reprinting and can be quickly and easily designed, even branded, saving both time and money.
Furthermore, digital cards are environmentally friendly. The paper industry currently contributes to deforestation, felling about some million trees annually for paper business cards. By going digital, freelancers opt for a sustainable option that reduces paper waste and helps mitigate climate change.
