Networking Events and the Business Card

The Business Card is the secret weapon of the networking events. It allows people to remember you and contact you. But there is a right way and a wrong way to use them.

Right Way

·         At the End of the Conversation

·         Not Expecting One Back

·         When the Moment is Right

Wrong Way

·         Don’t just give them out

·         Don’t start the conversation with one

How anyone can write a Note Card

The thought of writing note cards to people scares you stiff? Don’t be, it is easy to effectively compose your thoughts.

Important Things to Get Across

·         Why you are writing the person

·         How it made you fell

With these two things you too can write effective note cards.

A Well Designed Business Card

An effective business card allows people to know who you are and how they can contact you

Important Information to Have

·         Name

·         Contact Email

·         Contact Phone Number

·         Website

·         Company Logo/ Slogan

It Depends

·         Address (Job Hunters- Yes, Businesses- Only if Have a Physical Store Front)

Design is just as important as having the correct information on the business card. An effective design can help you’re information stick out in people’s minds. But you have to have the design not over power the information.

Hacked

The Twitter Account was hacked. With it our well built up reputation could have potentially gone down the trash. Why people hurt other peoples reputation, I’d really like to know.

New

As you noticed with the changes on the original site, something’s up. While today I am proud to announce the launch of Fischer Marketing Group’s new website www.fmarketinggrp.com. Sound familiar, it’s our Twitter name (@FMarketingGrp).

I have been working on this for a while now. It combines the best of the original site while allowing for a better presentation on the new site.  You still have to order on the original site because of the secure download software we use (DL Guard, highly recommended).
