Exactly what is this you ask? It is an electronic version of your business card. It can be cheaper alternative to purchasing business cards, although you can get them for FREE from http://www.vistaprint.com/. However, an electronic version can in some ways, be a better option. Here are the PROS and CONS of of having an electronic business card.
PROS
You all know that the only way for a prospect to be a qualified one, is when you get their contact information right? Well with an electronic card, you have to get their information to send it to them anyway so that's a perfect way to get their information without sounding creepy. And in return, they'll immediately receive your information straight to their phone so they'll know who you are. I think this is a good motivator to follow up quickly, as you are fresh in their mind.
CONS
On the opposite side of that, because it is being texted to them, it can easily be erased. With a standard business card, they can always have that and run across it here and there. Also, although it sounds ludicrous in this day and age, not everyone has a cell phone with data plans. So you might not be able to text them in the first place.
Well thats all for now...
