QR Card Representing a QR Code, and an Electronic Business Card

Let's delve deeper: how can we transform a regular, familiar business card into a more convenient and modern tool for communication and establishing business contacts? There are two types of new business cards:

• QR card or business card with a QR code;
• Electronic business card.

QR Card or Business Card with QR Code

This innovation appeared quite some time ago. A traditional paper business card can be supplemented with a QR code. When you scan the QR code, the business card is automatically saved to contacts. This is very convenient. However, due to text size limitations in QR codes, you cannot insert a photo or all the information from the business card. Typically, a QR code can only contain a name, phone number, position, and email address. A QR code with such information will be quite complex and bulky, and if you add a company name, social networks, or address, it might not fit in the QR code. Electronic business cards have been introduced as a solution to this problem.

Electronic Business Card (QR Card Enhanced with an Electronic Business Card)

Now, let's talk in more detail about the electronic business card. You can also share an electronic business card via a QR code, but you can insert any information, including photos and videos. Such a card can contain complete information about yourself, your company, social networks, activities, client list, and even presentation materials. This allows you to come to meetings, share your business card, and instantly transmit all the necessary information to your partners' smartphones. Your partners can save all the information in their smartphone with a single click, instead of leaving it in their back pocket, as often happens with a paper business card.

When you call, your photo and all the information about you and your company are displayed on the interlocutor's screen. Your number will not be blocked as spam, and at the next meeting, you will be recognizable, as your photo is constantly displayed to the interlocutor.

You can print the QR code of the electronic business card and stick it on your paper business card. We also offer several ready-made solutions with QR codes, for example, an electronic smart business card or a QR sticker for a smartphone with NFC, made of metal, priced at 299 rubles per piece with delivery.

Advantages of Electronic Business Cards for Companies Compared to QR Codes on Paper Business Cards

Electronic business cards increase the efficiency of employees who need to communicate with clients, contractors, or partners. They are an effective tool for establishing contacts from the first acquaintance, saving time on manually adding contacts to a smartphone and establishing a trustful contact with meeting participants.

Smartphones have become an integral part of our lives, and people are interested in exploring the information presented in electronic business cards. By saving such a card via QR, a link to your personal web page with your electronic business card is also saved in the contacts.

For companies, electronic business cards represent not only QR codes but also a range of additional functions:

• A mobile application for creating business cards;
• A personal account for managing employees' business cards;
• Analytics of employee activity;
• Branded NFC cards with QR codes and electronic chips for contactless sharing of business cards;
• Design in the company's corporate style;
• Savings on printing business cards and reducing labor costs in organizing the distribution of business cards to employees.
