Your business card is crap...

YouTube - Your business card is CRAP!

I love this guy... Duncan, Peter, Theo watch out guys

His card in my opinion isnt much more than a gimmick if want people to read your card there and then and maybe show it to a few friends, but when I tried doing A5 cards, no one kept them as they didnt fit into their business card holder, then I tried folding cards they was often torn in half to keep the business details, I also want people to keep my business card for future reference

I am having some Die cut ones made like his first fold tho

The underlying message is good tho in that video.

How much attention do you put into your pos, promotional material and stationary ?

He couldn't get his emphasis on words right which made him sound a bit silly, unfortunately. This was funny though YouTube - "Your business card is CRAP!" Perhaps, however...

Only one winner on this YouTube - American Psycho: Business Card Scene !

I believe it was modelled on a meeting in bar tat in ilkely .

They have cut and copped the video alot too.

I was more interested in the underlying message about a business card conveying a message

Many people forget there are 2 sides of a business card, the front is the attention grabber and the message and back is your details complete with H1-3 headers, nicely grouped and laid out

I've seen and heard that conversation at every sales, marketting and promotions event I've ever been too. One guy was like 'yeah I have titanium laser etched business cards which my logo in gold leaf', I ended up buying 'buzz cards' which was little like the size of your thumb plasic cards that came with a pouch that went on the back of your phone to give out. useless idea.

The bottom line is that no matter how good a business car is, if you aren't buying, it will get tossed in the bin, or at the bottom of a drawer, if its that guys card.
