Make Your Business Cards

    View: 
- Do you use the back side to generate more sales through a



shocking offer or guarantee, loyalty or referral program, or

any of the 11 best marketing strategies to attract new

customers and retain your current customers?

- Do you add a call-to-action on the back side to clearly

tell your prospects what you want them to do so you can

generate more leads and, therefore, close more sales?

- Do you use a full-color artwork to add impact and

differentiate from other business cards in your prospect's

Rolodex?

- Do you show your photo to remind your prospects who you

are?

- Do you have your slogan on the front, close to your

business name or logo, to communicate what your business and

positioning are?

- Do you have a slogan at all?

If your answer to two or more of my questions is NO, then

sorry but? your business card sucks.

Don't get mad at yourself now. It's not your fault. Business

cards have been used for the last 100 hundred years not as a

sales tool but, on the contrary, just as a formality and a

way to give out your phone and e-mail.

Still, a well-thought-out business card is one of the most

powerful - yet inexpensive - sales tools you could use to

boost your sales and profits almost overnight.

To transform your business cards into a sales tool all you

need to know is: How to Create and How to Use business cards

that sell.

HOW TO CREATE BIZ CARDS THAT SELL:

As an example, the following is the message on the back side

of my business cards:

Worried your sales may sink?

Already sunk? 50% of new businesses don't survive the first

year. Another 45% are gone by year five.

I don't want you to become a victim of these statistics!

That's why I'll give you my "From Survival to Success" Kit

for FREE:

- 100 FREE Full-color BizCardsthatSell

- My celebrated e-Book: "How to Boost YOUR Sales with Biz

Cards that Sell"

- Ongoing strategic advice through Success4You, my weekly e-

newsletter

If you've got 10 minutes, I guarantee to work a sales

miracle in your business.

Go now to www.BizCardsthatSell.com/FreeOffer. Hurry! This

exceptional combined offer will not last long.

Will Perego

Founder & CEO

BizCardsthatSell.com

Powerful, don't you think? Especially for those people who

are desperately looking for a way to save their business or

increase sales.

This is what I call a Shocking Offer: A shocking offer is so

outrageously beneficial for your prospect that it's almost

impossible to say NO.

Can you see the difference between a traditional business

card and one that sells? My business cards bring prospects

directly to my website where they can get everything for

free while some of them - a lot, actually - become

customers!

The following are the 11 best marketing strategies you can

use for your biz cards that sell:

1. Free e-book or report (the one I use)

2. Free subscription to e-newsletter

3. Invitation to free seminar

4. Free consultation

5. Free trial

6. Trade-in offer

7. Shocking guarantee

8. Membership Club

9. Referral Program

10. Loyalty Program

11. Reminder for Appointment

The first seven are the best marketing strategies to attract

new customers. Almost everything is free because your goal

is to make their first step toward becoming your customer

extremely smooth and easy to take. You make your profit from

their recurring business. Now?

HOW TO USE BIZ CARDS THAT SELL:

The way you use biz cards that sell is exactly the opposite

of how you've been using business cards for your whole life!

You put your biz cards that sell to work for you bringing

new and recurring customers while you are doing something

else. Even while you are sleeping!

It's all about leverage. Once you have a powerful marketing

message on the back side, your business cards work as a

flyer or a postcard. Even better. Because business cards are

saved for future reference while considered a personal

communication, instead of just another piece of advertising.

Isn't it amazing? You will not need to be on one side of the

business card, handing it to someone on the other side, in

order to get their business.

The following are the Most Powerful Ways to Use Biz Cards

that Sell to Boost Your Sales:

1. Create joint ventures with other business owners who

share your customers while not competing with you. Hand out

and mail each other's business cards to your contact

database along with a personal letter and an endorsement.

2. Give a prize to your employees when they bring a new

customer because of handing out their biz cards that sell.

3. Add four or five cards to all follow-up collaterals and

outgoing mail.

4. Create a Referral program on the back side with prizes

for the referrer and the referral and mail some among with a

personal letter to your contact base.

5. Create a Loyalty program - buy X number of my products

and get ONE free. Print X circles on the back side and hand

out these cards to every customer with the first circle

already perforated.

6. Display them in your store/office along with a sign

promoting your marketing strategy.

Use them profusely while networking and every time you meet

anyone.

take a look. Thanks.
Make Your Business Cards
Here are Some Clever Ways that You can Use Your Business Cards:

Staple one to each brochure you send out - if somebody needs your products or services in the distant future and they find your brochure, they will know who to call.

Use it as a name badge when networking - it makes remembering your name a lot easier.

Send a card with every invoice - sooner or later you will get a call that otherwise you might have missed.

When you send a business gift include your business card.

Keep a batch of cards in your car - you never know when you might need to hand one over. For the same reason always keep some in your wallet or purse.

Some Interesting Uses of a Business Card

Leave a couple wherever you go.

If you have a meeting leave a couple at reception.

If you go out to eat leave one with the cheque.

When you go to the supermarket attach one to the bulletin boards.

On your next business trip leave a couple in the hotel room when you check out. You might get a call from the next business traveller that stays in the same room!

If you hire a car leave some in the glove compartment.

When you return a library book insert a business card inside. The same goes for movie rentals.

The Back of Your Business Card

Offer a discount on the back of the card only applicable if the card is presented when making a purchase.

Give details of your opening hours so that people know when to call or visit.

If your premises are hard to find why not add a mini map?

Print your mission statement on the back or reasons why the customer should buy from you.

It is a good idea to have a unique email address just for your business card. This way you will know where your enquiry came from.

Your business card is often the first and sometimes the last impression that people get of your business so make sure you spend a little extra and use a thicker card that will not damage easily. Add a photo at the front so that people remember you.

I do not like plastic business cards as I often make notes on the back. I think a card should always be the same size as a credit card so that it fits neatly inside a wallet. I love cards that have been embossed with a design. Try and add some colour to your business card.

What can you do if you run out of business cards and your next batch will not be ready in time for your next networking meeting? A clever idea is to buy a pack of playing cards and write your contact details on each card. Do not use the jokers, ace of spades or the queen of hearts!
