Your Business Card is Dead

There’s a quiet revolution happening in how people interact with your business — especially when you’re not there.

Let’s take a quick walk through time:

  • 50 years ago: The Rolodex ruled. You handed someone a business card and hoped it didn’t end up in a drawer… or the trash.
  • 20 years ago: You had a phone number. Maybe even a website if you were tech savvy.
  • 10 years ago: Things got a little more high-tech — QR codes, tap-to-share contacts, and LinkedIn requests became the norm.

I’ve done it all.

Dozens of events. Conferences. Networking mixers.

And guess what?

Crickets.

No calls.
No emails.
No follow-ups.
No leads.
No revenue.

Not because I wasn’t interesting.

Not because the pitch was off.
I just got lost in the noise.

They met 15 people.
I was number 12.
Forgotten by morning.
