You come home from a networking event with a pile of cards. More than likely you threw most of them out or stored them in your desk drawer never giving them another thought. No one wants their business card to be mixed in the pile of cards that were tossed or forgotten about.  For me, I have always enjoyed having a business card that was fun, unique, and memorable. Recently, I obtained a new client that I had given my business card to at a speed networking event over a year prior to her reaching out to me. She had kept the card at her desk for an entire year. Think about your current business card. Would it be tossed in the trash or kept on someone's desk?

I have compiled a collection of my favorite unique business cards. They are all so creative and memorable that I can promise you your company will stand out from the stack of cards already on everyone's desk. Here are a few great ideas to stand out! 

1) Fold-it-Flat™ Business Card Pen 

I admit being guilty of not having a pen at the worst times. Since my business card now has a pen, I always have one, and if there is ever a time when someone is looking for a pen, I hand them my business card. It is always a conversation starter and people love how creative I am. 

2) Video Business Card

Video business cards are a sure “show-stopper” At a higher perceived value, they catch the prospects eye immediately. Whether it is inviting the media to an event or prospecting to corporate CEO’s, these video cards are sure to get attention.

3) Steel Business Card 

Metal business cards are sleek and clean.

4) Seed Packet Business Card

Looking to “Grow” your business? See what I did there? ;) This Seed Packet Business card can help you stand out. 

5) Silicone Card Sleeve

This is another business card that I have personally used. I stick one of my traditional paper business cards in the sleeve but make sure that my logo and information is on the cell phone wallet also. People really like using these so they are sure to keep it!

6) Sticky Pack Business Card

Name me one person that doesn't like having sticky notes at their desk. The Sticky note business card is a top competitor in coming back to your prospect's office. Be sure to leave some room on the sticky note for them to use as a notepad and you will be on the top of their mind everytime they write on this pad. 

7) Business Card Magnet

An oldie but goodie. Business card magnets are well suited to promote all types of businesses that range from banks to pizzerias and auto stores among others. Personalize these with your brand message and every time your audience sees it they will be reminded of your brand. I would recommend creating art that makes the end user want to put it on their fridge. This could be visually appealing, adding a calendar, a coupon, or more. 

8) Flip and Clip Business Card Bookmark

Custom bookmark Business cards are perfect to grab readers' attention every time they sit down with their favorite book. Great for schools & colleges, Libraries, Daycares, etc. 

9) Cookie Business Card Box

Give your prospect a reason to eat, I mean keep your business card. The way to your prospects heart is FOOD! 

10) Business Card KOOZIE® Can Kooler

This Business Card Koozie Can Kooler will definitely be an ice breaker for your next event!
