Always carry your business cards!

Isn’t it interesting that while people rarely attend a networking events without their business cards, they seldom take business cards to social functions with friends and family. Why not? Aren’t those people in need of products and services as well? How often have you been at a family function where you strike up a conversation with an invited guest, only to find that he or she needs your service? And guess what, no business cards. Yes, you could take down his or her name and number, but being ready with a business card shows that you are prepared and that you will be prepared when he or she has a problem. The moral, always carry your business cards as you never know when, or where, you will run into that perfect customer.
