How to Create Free Digital Business Cards

Conferences and networking events are ramping back up after the pandemic hiatus. Whether or not it’s actually safe for these events to occur is another matter. The wheel of capitalism grinds on! Personally, I haven’t updated my biz cards in ages, but I recently learned how to create free digital business cards and it’s time for a refresh.

Back in August and October, I spoke at some events organized by my public library. Even though I was contracted early, for whatever reason, the events seemed to sneak up on me. That meant that I forgot to get some business cards made.

It also meant that knowing how to create free digital business cards saved my bacon.

Why Digital Business Cards

There are many reasons to go digital. For one, if you’re like me and forget about business cards until it’s too late to order any, digital business cards are a great way to go.

But there are other great reasons for them. Digital business cards are environmentally friendly. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve attended a conference, come home with a pile of business cards, and just thrown them away. Sure, I get the information I need from them and send emails about how great it was to connect with so-and-so. But after that? I don’t need them.
