Will COVID-19 change the way we share business cards?


It’s safe to say that the COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way we live, at home, and work. It has made us very conscious of spreading germs and keeping a safe social distance from each other, so the less physical contact we have with people, the better. So where does this leave Business Cards? How do we keep a social distance and remove any physical contact when it comes to exchanging them?





It might be time to take a more digital route. You could share this information in a signature that is automatically included in every email you send and your profile information on your social media platforms.

QR Codes on your business cards and its advantages





Discover a new way of using your business card to network and share information by adding a QR Code, and set yourself apart from other professionals. You can share your contact details, business information, work samples, and much more with only one scan.

The way QR Codes work is simple. A customer sees the code and wants to know more, and so they take out their smartphones, scan the QR code, and it instantly takes them to the webpage of your choice. QR codes are so powerful because they connect colleagues or clients to anything you want, from websites, photo slideshows or videos, to Facebook pages or customised landing pages with special promotions you may have developed in conjunction with your business marketing campaign.






Business cards are an integral part of networking and expanding your contact list. There is now a new way for you to enhance its effectiveness and make it easier for your potential clients to learn more about your business, add your information to their devices, and even access samples of your work. Adding a QR Code to your business card allows you to do this and so much more. Here are some of the benefits.

1. Share your contact details effortlessly

Using the vCard and QR Code on your business card enables potential clients or employers to add your contact information to their mobile devices without the hassle of manually typing it in. They can simply scan and save.

2. Increase your social media presence

Adding a Social Media QR Code that links to your social media platforms will garner more followers and fans on your pages and allow your clients to remain up to date on all your latest work, events, and news.

3. Convenient for freelancers

The best way for potential clients or employers to get to know you is through your work. You can have your business card link directly to your current business projects, user cases, or your blogs by using a dynamic URL QR Code, which is an excellent feature for freelancers.

Adding a Business Page QR Code to your business card allows you to instantly inform your clients or future customers about your business, your contact details, opening hours, address, social media accounts, and navigational directions.
