Marketing Tip: Are Business Cards Obsolete?

Not a chance! Even though the world is evolving into a much more digital scene, a paper business card is very much necessary for Insurance Agents. We’ve heard agents talking about what they need to get started, and what they don’t need, and are often asked, is it really necessary to have business cards printed? Our question back to them is this: Do you want referrals from your current clients? If you do want referrals, then you may want to spend a small fee to get your cards printed.

Your business card should be a reflection of who you are, and what you represent. You’ll need to mention not only your name, phone number, email address, and website (if you have one), but you may want to mention what services you offer. In the case of insurance agents, you may want to mention that you are in fact licensed and an expert in your niche.

Once you’ve determined what you want to say on your card, you’ll want to find someone to design and print them, right? Some of the easiest and most affordable options for you are right online. Sites such as Vistaprint.com, Moo.com, and Zazzle.com have tons of different options for design, and are very affordable and produce great quality. If you’re looking for a special design, or even a fancier type of paper, you may want to reach out to a graphic designer and print shop to help you stand out from the crowd!
