Digital business cards are a building block if you want to position yourself and your company more digitally. But electronic business cards offer far more benefits than just a digital presence.
Electronic business cards help you boost your lead generation. With contactless data transfer, your contact info is quickly on the other person's device. This ensures you can effortlessly share your details with potential customers and partners, even during busy times like quick meetings, coffee breaks, or at trade shows. This eliminates the risk of your business card, and thus your contact information, getting lost or forgotten in a drawer.
Multiple digital business cards can be easily managed and centralized. With intuitive user management, which includes automatic import from HRIS systems, employee data stays current. Templates are used to apply design changes directly to each digital business card, eliminating the need for tedious designing, printing, and distribution.
Digital business cards reduce the risk of data transmission errors. This is because you can correct or adjust your data in your digital profile at any time. While a transposed number on paper business cards means that you can dispose of all the cards and have to place a new order, correcting an electronic business card only costs you a few clicks.
Anyone can receive your digital business card, even if they don't use Spreadly.
With electronic business cards, a distinction can be made between two basic technologies and methods of data transmission: Business cards with QR code and NFC business cards.
An electronic business card with a QR code is printed on the business card and can then be scanned to retrieve and save the contact information. The QR code can redirect to a website as well as trigger the download of a contact file.
NFC-enabled electronic business cards can transfer data completely without contact. This is achieved by integrating a chip into the card, which uses Near Field Communication (NFC) technology to transmit data via radio waves. The card protects the chip from dirt and moisture and can be easily stored in a wallet.
The difference between a digital business card with a QR code and a classic business card is not particularly big, to be honest. This is because it is also a printed product that can no longer be changed. Although the data behind the QR code can be adapted in most cases, the QR code itself remains unchangeable.
NFC cards, on the other hand, can be adapted and re-recorded at any time, opening up significantly more flexible usage options. NFC business cards also have a high-quality look and can be made from various materials such as plastic, wood or metal. However, it is also somewhat expensive if you want to create a digital business card that uses NFC technology.
