5 Hidden Tricks to Make People Actually Use Your Digital Business Card
Most people set up their digital card, share it once, and then forget about it. But just because it’s set up doesn’t mean it’s working its hardest. Here are 5 under-the-radar tricks that turn a “nice card” into a “go-to tool” people want to use.
-
Make it scannable everywhere. Use QR codes or NFC tags at your physical meetings, printed materials, or even your shopfront. If someone can scan your card without typing, they will.
-
Use a video intro or voice note. If your platform (like MyBiz) allows embedding media, a short “Hi, this is ____” video/link gives personality. It builds trust.
-
Keep content fresh. When you have new work, portfolio piece, testimonial, or offer, update your card. It shows you’re active and relevant.
-
Use smart sharing options. Put your digital card in your email signature, WhatsApp messages, social media bios, and virtual meeting backgrounds. Make it visible in multiple places.
-
Add multiple contact paths. Some people prefer calling, others messaging, or just visiting your website. Let them choose. The more comfortable the path, the more likely they’ll reach out.
These tweaks sound small, but together they transform your digital card from just a digital folder of information into a living, trusted tool people refer back to again and again.
