Difference between traditional Business Card from CardSynk and Digital Business Card.

This present world is going through a period of digital age. This era is mainly circulated with businesses which are technologically advanced and green living. However, does this scenario really state the fact that newly introduced digital business cards are going to take over the old and traditional paper business cards? The answer of this question lies in the discussion which is going to be described in the following few paragraphs.
Let’s take a deeper look at some of the most significant drawbacks and benefits of the traditional and digital business cards.

Traditional Business Cards

Benefits
The traditional business cards let you give an opportunity of building a connection between your brand and your targeted customers with whom you have the intention to re-communicate in the near future, making the start with the help of the first impression. In this period of visual-content, this type of card is a sort of visual reminder about you and along with your business.

Drawbacks

Have you updated your e-mail address, phone number or website address in the recent times? Is there any possibility of switching up the current business in a full-scaled rebranding form? Any sort of change in the mentioned areas will force you to re-print your current business cards. At the same time, you have to send the new business cards to your old clients which can be referred to be the most chaotic and hectic kind of work for any business.
Digital Business Cards

Benefits

At the current time, a wide variety of mobile apps let you give the facility to share your electronic business cards with your targeted customers who are basically smartphone users. In this case, you can easily share your contact information using those smartphone apps with your target customers by creating a professional and virtual business card. Any kind of change you make becomes updated at the time when the change is done.

Drawback

One of the major drawbacks of the digital business card is that this version is hot today, but can be gone on the next day. At the same time, both of the parties have to install the same app in order to share the contact information mentioned in the virtual/digital business cards. Lastly, you can miss a great amount of potential customers who do not own or use a smartphone.

Physical business cards are actually sometimes more convenient. Like if you are at their business, it's easier to just pick up a business card then look up their website. Plus they can look nice if they're designed well. They'd make good collectables.

Exactly.. maybe its because i am a designer but i quite enjoy picking up business to admire the work that went into creating it.. lol.. thamks for your comment
