La Disputa

Business cards are an important social networking tool for professionals, a way to showcase your work if you’re an artist or a designer, and something I didn’t even notice until someone asked me for mine. Oops.

Then, I started noticing everyone’s cards. For every person that treats their card like of art or another piece of themselves, I saw horrible, unimaginative, boring cards that got lost in the holes of my pockets. I don’t know how a designer who is marketing themselves as such can lose out on such a great opportunity to showcase their work. Even if you’re not an artist, I think you should treat your card like one. It doesn’t have to be terribly expensive, but if there’s a prison cell line-up of business cards, the witnesses should be able to definitively yell, “that business card did it!”.
