In many cultures, business cards still play an essential role in meetings: an eye-catching business card with all the relevant contact information can capture the attention of your potential customer, enhancing credibility and a sense of professionalism for your business.
But how to keep calling cards up-to-date and engaging even in 2020? It’s as simple as that: by integrating Augmented Reality technology.
Forget old, boring, plain cards: we’re bringing business cards into the future!
Give those cards an extra gear
Exchanging business cards could seem a bit out of fashion, we know. But in many cultures, such as the Japanese, they’re crucial to determine the outcome of business proposals.
However, designing them can be tricky for these reasons:
- they provide little space for all the vital information you need to convey
- it’s hard to update once printed
- standing out is a mission impossible
How to easily overcome all these issues? Easy: integrating AR technology into calling cards design.
With a marker-based AR experience, your potential business partner or customer can easily discover more about you, simply scanning your card: you can directly link your Linkedin page, or your company website, or even adding a video or a landing page: possibilities are endless.
Let’ see how it works!
