-          Do not hand out your business card to everyone you see. It’s true that you want as many people as possible to become familiar with your business, but that’s what advertising is for. You shouldn’t slip business cards into people’s hands or interrupt them while their speaking with someone else. Common courtesy applies.

Just because you handed out one hundred business cards at a tradeshow doesn’t mean you actually made meaningful connections.  Be selective about the people you choose to share your information with.

-          When someone asks for your card, ask for one of theirs in return. If nothing else, this will allow you to contact them at a later date, to follow up, and to capitalize on your meeting.

-          When receiving someone’s business card, treat it with respect.  Do not stuff it immediately into your pocket or purse.  Actually look at. Commit the person’s name to memory, and make sure you have the correct pronunciation. Now is the time to ask these questions, not later.

-          Before you hand over your business card, write a quick note on the back, regarding what you talked to this person about or why they need your information.  This will trigger their memory later on and keep you top-of-mind.

-          Never include a business card in emotional or personal correspondence. Whether it’s condolences or congratulations, it’s not about you.

 Follow these simple rules to make the most of your business card and all of your interactions.

You don’t need decades of work experience under your belt in order to convey professionalism.  A well-designed business card on quality stock is an important networking tool for anyone, especially those who are searching for jobs.  Design a simple, uncluttered card for your graduate.  Include their important contact information, their web site, areas of interest, or the degree they received.   Consider using the back of the card as well.  Add a calendar or have your graduate list their most marketable skills or distinguishing attributes.  

Your recent-grad will go forth with confidence as they network and interview.

For a thoughtful graduation gift, try pairing custom business cards with a personalised engraved pen!
