In the world right now virtually everything has gone digital.bwith that said, however business cards are still just as important as ever before. I have been caught out a couple of times when potential customers have asked for my business card, and I haven't had one on me. Ever since covid-19 introduced worldwide lockdowns, more and more business networks have been established and maintained through either linkedin,zoom or Google Hangouts. Networking events have gone digital, and there is sufficient evidence to suggest many of these these events may continue to remain digital, in full or in part even after lockdown. But even with all these the shirt answer is that business cards are still relevant. And here are reasons. For.
1. Branding.
2. Professionalism.
3. Digital business cards.
