Business cards are a crucial tool for sending marketing messages to current and prospective customers. They are traditionally available in paper, plastic and magnets. Metal business cards are the new phenomenon and as normal, people are asking whether they are good enough. The benefits below show that:
• They are different from other cards, making them stand out and help to make that first impression count on your potential and existing customers.
• Because they are made of metal, they will last longer compared to plastic and paper. They are resistant to scratching and fading. Moreover when dirty, they can be wiped or even washed without defacing them.
• You can choose from an array of attractive stainless steel, copper, brass or silver or gold plated aluminum.
• They are hard to loose unlike paper which can be tossed away easily by mistake.
• Unlike paper cards, metal will retain the original design shape over time. It can be made in the shape of your favorite symbol and still retain that shape over time without the fear of the edges having those dreaded dog-ear folds.
Good as they are, metal business cards have disadvantages in that:
• They are generally more costly, especially for small quantities.
• It is hard for your customer to add any more detail on the card using pen.
• Designs such as raised lettering and gold foils are still not available.
With the many advantages of the metal cards over other types the question, “Are metal business cards good enough?” has one positive answer – yes they are more than good enough. They are cost effective over the long run and will put you right in the face your prospective customers.
