How to carry business cards
on: November 16, 2014, 09:11:02 PM
Question for those carry their business cards daily, how you do it?
Common practice is carry them in wallet, but often they got bend up and Corners wore off.
I found behind the cell phone gel case is a good place to store a few cards.

Share your thoughts?

Of course those are mean for the unexpected encounters, if I am going into a meeting, I would have more in my computer case.

I ordered the last batch with exact measurements to fit my wallet card slots without bending. A few mm space on each side and not too high so they don't stick out of their slot and are backed by credit cards in front a beneath them. Works good for 4-5 cards.

Credit cards have round off corners while most business cards have straight corners, didn't work so well for me as I don't pass them out often, they stay for a while and the corners got bend up.

I use a Muji aluminium card holder: http://www.muji.us/store/...inium-card-case-thin.html    Don't carry it every day, though it's small enough that I could.  I do keep a couple in my wallet and they seem to stay in ok shape.

That's exactly it. ;) I ordered cards that are the same width as the credit cards but slightly smaller in height, about 4mm, so that the corners are covered by the credit card.

I used to carry one of those but as I only ocassionaly need them and that was just another thing to lug around, I dropped it and went with walet only carry. Yes, it's very small but when you carry a lot of very small things, those add up. ;)

Few years back I was at a county fair with my kids, the PA system calls someone from "FACP" (my company's name) come to the lost and found booth for his cell phone... I looked down and realized my phone is gone. Good that i have my company's logo on the lock screen so they know who to call for.
