Sometimes We Miss the LITTLE things when it comes to marketing...
Sometimes we get so busy writing articles, blogging and trying all kinds of marketing techniques that we miss the simplest and easiest things of all..
How about those business cards that we carry around - I personally like one that has a simple line , creating curiosity, with a website on it. No name, state, business name or nothing...
There are so many places to leave business cards - ever wonder why you find business cards stuck in the middle of a Robert Kyosaki book in the bookstore??
A business partner of mine left his card in the pocket of a suit he tried on, got a call from a gentleman months later that found his card in the suit pocket, called him up and joined him in business within a week!
Try on a new pair of shoes, leave it in the toe... oh and I love this one, we all fuel up our cars at the gas station, right? Leave your card in the credit card slot - you bet the next person will look at it and if says something like "Looking to make an extra grand this month?" - absolutely they will look up the website... We humans are a curious bunch of people!
Too much information on cards will get them tossed into the garbage...
Have fun - this is only intended to get your creative juices flowing =)

I once got a call from the gas compan

I believe that it was in one of my business classes that the professor said that
"The Business Card is your passport to People, respect it, and NEVER leave home without it..."
These days, I feel like I am not completely dressed unless I have my business cards... I even keep an online business card, which I can send to prospects instantly...
There's your online/ offline marketing strategy... If you can get your business cards into the hands of enough of the right people... The Sky'
