Daily Dose of Work – Business Cards

I’ve been procrastinating business cards and maybe there was a reason for my procrastination, besides I’m good at procrastinating?  Maybe I was somehow waiting for Scoble’s post about cards and all of the comments he’s gotten?  Nah, I was just procrastinating because that’s what I do.

But I think Scoble’s post is good.  The comments, thus far, are also good.  I just threw away about 50 cards and need to throw away another 50 or so.  I don’t even know why I have most of them, that indicates they weren’t very successful cards.  The most memorable card, I hope I still have it, was a card from a bar in Angeles City, Pampanga = it had helpful Tagalog phrases on it.  Helpful for "servicemen attempting to converse with the ummm staff." 

I’m thinking of boycotting business cards and going with magnets (which would be appropriate for me because of my refrigerator issue).  Or maybe stickers to people could give them to their kids, stick them up in public restroom stalls, stuff like that.  Or maybe boycott them entirely.

I don’t know.  I’m still procrastinating  thinking about it.

  1. People always seem surprised that I don’t have business cards. I’m really not sure why I would need them or what the heck I would have on one.

    Excellent idea Lee! I like it!

  2. The huge collection of business cards that I’ve oft considered tossing saved my butt when I lost my computer & all of my addresses/phone numbers recently. Really ought to organize the blasted things, though, instead of having them wrapped in rubber bandds, LOL!

  3. I suppose I could see how having those around might be helpful in that kind of situation.

    Organization, ha. Rubber banding is organizing.
