PROMOTE YOUR BUSINESS THROUGH CONNECTANA’S DIGITAL BUSINESS CARDS

A digital business card to advertise your company is the advantage of Connectana. Most professionals keep their business cards in their wallets or briefcase to share with potential clients during visits or networking events. While paper business cards are still widely used, virtually all of the information they contain is digital: email, website, phone numbers, LinkedIn, social media, etc.

Wouldn't it be more efficient to use a digital solution to share this digital information?

We believe it's faster and easier for your recipients to give them an easy way to accurately store all of your digital information rather than re-copying it.

Digital business cards are the new networking tool and offer many benefits. You may think you don't need them or that your business is too traditional, but we'll show you how to use this new tool and why you should replace your paper business cards.

WHY SHOULD YOU USE DIGITAL BUSINESS CARDS?

In a world that is becoming increasingly digitized, much of the networking happens online. Whether it's via Zoom, Microsoft Teams, LinkedIn, social media, or your website, the days of in-person networking are slowly disappearing. It's a great way to publicize your company's digital details and business information. Whether you're sharing your digital business card's QR code or unique link, you can reach anyone, no matter what device they're using.

Here are some of the reasons why you should use Connectana’s business cards.

Business cards contain digital details

Before the internet and the highly digitized world we live in today, your business card usually contained your company address, your name, your position, and maybe a phone and a fax number. The only digital information at the time was the phone and fax numbers.

Many companies today integrate digital information such as websites, social media, emails, etc. Therefore, a lot of information has to be manually copied to the recipient's device.

Make it easy for your recipients

Connectana provides an easy way to store contact information quickly and accurately, right in the recipient's address book, with a single tap or click.

Digital solution to promote digital channels

When you network, you want people to be able to access your business information as quickly as possible. If you wrote your email address on a paper card, someone would have to open their email app or address book and manually type in your email address, leading to typos and potential errors.

With Connectana’s Interactive Business Cards, store your information with a simple touch or click. You can view all your social media links, websites, emails, phone numbers, WhatsApp, company videos, product portfolios, etc. Recipients can click links and be directed to your digital channels quickly and accurately. Additionally, since these are external links, this is great for your SEO ranking as you will get more clicks on your links.

Reduce the use of paper business cards

Think how many business cards you've received over the years, probably thousands.

What are you doing with them? Do you usually throw them away when you don't need them or can't use them?

In most cases, you won't even look at them until you need the company's product or service, and then they most likely end up in the trash. This happens every day and is a colossal waste of paper and resources.

Wouldn't it be better to switch to an eco-friendly digital business card that allows you to promote your business from any device?

Connectana Business Cards have a lower carbon footprint than paper cards and offer many benefits such as Performance analytics, two-way contact exchange, centralized provisioning, and management of users, to name a few. On the other hand, physical cards are consumable products that can only be used once. So, they are unsustainable and wasteful, causing extra work for the recipients to whom they are issued.
