Opinions fully cover the spectrum: business cards are everything from indispensable to obsolete. This Inc. magazine article highlights a range of beliefs.
One quote stands in my mind:
“Coming home with 30 or 40 cards is not nearly as effective as having half a dozen [that were from] really good quality conversations where having the business card and the ability to reconnect was important to you,” Ross Parker says. “I think people miss that.”
Do you think business cards are obsolete in the internet era? Let’s hear your take!

Yes,
I do believe that a quality, well designed, business card is vital when your meeting a potential client in person. In my line of work it’s all about presenting oneself as someone who is competent and trustworthy. The card can help create of professional impression.
