Why are business cards so important?

"No, I don't have my business card on me. I'll bring one in the next time I'm here." This is what I said to someone who asked for my business card last week. The fact that I lied and said I had one but didn't have one one me at the time, has made my mind frantic because of all the possible missed opportunities.

"Why are they so important anyway?" I of asked myself. I waited for an answer. After realizing that one wasn't going to come immediately, I then began to ponder about all the possible missed opportunities I've had at church, weddings, parties, corporate meetings and the like simply because I don't have any business cards! What have I been thinking?!?!

The following night I began searching frantically for business card companies online. The fact that I wanted to save money, have a great looking business card, and get them shipped to me fairly quickly, limited my search. I wanted to create my own card that showed people who I am.


After hours of scouring the internet and trying out different company sites I had to choose between two. I made cards at both sites, Vistaprint and 123Print.


I made custom ones. I tried the designs offered at both sites. I spent two hours pondering over which of the card designs said, "Hi, this is Keyton Kyles."

Of the four final designs I had to choose from, which do you think I picked?

go with the typewriter or notepad and pen...they look a little more neat and professional...unless that's not what you're going for
