| How to create Business card |
• Business cards are shared during formal introductions as a convenience and a memory aid. A business card typically includes the giver's name, company affiliation (usually with a logo) and contact information such as street addresses, telephone number(s) and/or e-mail addresses. Traditionally many cards were simple black text on white stock; today a professional business card will sometimes include one or more aspects of striking visual design.
• If you don’t have business cards then you are not in business. That is as simple as I can put it. You should have at least 100 cards on your person at all times. Many businesses today offer business card bulletin boards where you can place your card. Its free advertising.
• I will post an example of the business card I use here but most importantly you should note that your business card is your first impression of your real estate investing business to your clients. In addition to business cards you need to have a “Mantra” or a 10 second commercial that you memorize to tell people when you hand out your cards. Mine goes something like this. “Hello I’m a real estate investor, I am interested in most any house and I am more than happy to give you an offer on your property, just give me a call and I will be glad to come out and do a walkthrough” I then hand them the card and get a commitment from them to contact me.
• If your “Mantra” sounds good and your card looks the part I can promise you this. Your business card will not get thrown away. The seller may not call you right away but if you have done it right that card will stay on their nightstand or in the purse/wallet for another day.
• One more tip, any employee or associate of yours should be given several of your cards to pass out and have to give to friends. Refferals are invaluable to this business.
• Business card content has never really changed so keep your consistent with the standards that are out there. Make your message unforgettable and then give them your card.
• One last thing I am a huge fan of spending the extra money and going for a high gloss 2 sided card. Many people when they get started make them on their computer and cut or punch them out. The credibility they have lost is 1000 times more than the money they would make with a really nice high gloss card.
