How Magnetic Are Your Business Cards?
How long do you think someone holds onto your business card before it gets lost or tossed? Years – you wish. I know I do. Or just long enough to be able to find you when your services or products are needed.
There are those who actually file business cards where they can or might find them again. I have seen it happen and been impressed. They might go into a desktop card holder with alphabetical tabs. Or how about those who are on the go and put them in a binder which has card size slots. Here are a couple other filing methods. Open a draw and throw it in the stack. Hand it off for someone else to put it in a safe place. Finally I should mention the dreaded round file.
Even with a nice design professionally printed on a thick stock with a highly polished surface isn’t enough. They might be impressed and spend a moment in admiration. But then your card is fighting for significance in a world of too many pieces of paper to keep everything.
What if you could magnetize the staying power your cards by making them Magnetic Business Cards?

Make an Impression That Sticks With Business Card Magnets
In the world of business, whether you are a mega corporation or a mom & pop venture, advertising is important. Fifty years ago, a colored, embossed business card with gold trim was a status symbol, similar to today’s expensive signature cars. That merit card meant you were the very best in the business because you could afford the expense to manufacture the sales tool.
Recipients of these business cards, automatically put the businessman or businesswoman on a pedestal, as the best in their field of expertise. How else could they afford such an expensive card, if they weren’t top-notched? And can you believe this, they handed me their deluxe business card! This made the receiver of the card feel special and flattered to know a “celebrity”.
To produce those cards, compared to today’s printing industry, was expensive, few could afford it, and extremely time consuming, which are more reasons why business cards were so coveted. You were somebody, if you had a collection of business cards. Those cards were hoarded, flaunted, and kept in leather-bound books.
Times have changed, and the archaic business cards are decaying in the local landfill. Once they touted greatness, now they are a dime-a-dozen, and anyone can get instant, professional results, on their home computer and printer. The cards are cheap, and everyone knows it. They are hurled into a waste container, without a second thought.
