Managing Business Cards Using Iphone

Business cards, we all have them and we all pass them to people around us. But most of us lose them or find it difficult to locate one when we are in dire need. I think managing them is really very important, as this saves time in searching for a particular one. I think its more important to keep important contacts preserved for longer and easy to locate. If one is having business card can do it without making great efforts. You can do that manually transcribe the card’s details in your iphone or you a iphone scanning software which by virtue of OCR can easily scan the business card.

Ocr scans the card process it to a image format which is further extracted by the software and stored into your iphone's memory. You can easily browse through and it anytime, anywhere.
I think by doing this we can ensure that we have the important contact with us for long time.

Using Business Card With Folds

Fold over or folding business cards give you more space for printing. Anyone can figure out this as mostly the standard business card size is 2" length and 3.5" in width, whereas with folding business card you get 2"x3.5" on front, back and 4" x 3.5" inside too.
This type of business cards are good enough for those who need to display more images and put more information. Fold over business cards work as mini portfolio or brochure. Secondly it occupies same amount of space as taken by usual standard business card. So, reduces chances of being dumped into litter bin.

You can utilize the internal space either by adding your product or services information or you can display images of your work place. You can even utilize back space by adding some promotional message or some promotional code.

Business Card Background Color: Tips

We have been discussing about different aspects of business card designing and printing. Even i have posted about the color choice, but today i would like to put my views about the background color of business card. I have observed many people go for bright colors backgrounds with lighter font color. This can look really attractive and can be very eye catchy. But if your main objective is promotion and business, then one need to avoid dark backgrounds. As the darker colors would be harder for a OCR to read. This may result in getting your business card discarded without being scanned. So, this may turn to be loop hole in your marketing, loosing on possibilities of getting business.
In short we can using lighter color background results in making your business card scanners and reader friendly. Especially if its a professional business card and need to be preserved for longer.
