It’s Wednesday, which means you’re officially halfway to the much coveted weekend!  Monday, if you remember, we went over the first 5 ways to use your unique and creative business cards to help network and broaden the sphere of people that know about, and want to utilize your services.

Today, we’re going to cover the 2nd half of that great list, and give you even more great ways to network with those great little business cards you worked so hard to create.  Remember, the first step is to create a great business card, so head over to OvernightPrints.com and get started with a design that people won’t be soon forgetting.  Again, check out the full article for more in-depth reasoning, but for now, here is a paraphrasing of the second half of the great tips to use your cards to network:

1. Maximize every “per chance” meeting. You never know when you might meet someone who can help you. Family or friends social events could produce unexpected encounters with people. Don’t discount those events.
2. Place yourself at the right place at the right time. Have you been to a job fair or business conference and been disappointed with the networking results’ Turn the tables around. Consider volunteering to help out at the job fair or other types of events.
3. Use “In Your Face” follow up. Did you ever have a job interview or meeting with a recruiter, potential client or employer and wonder why they never called you back’ ‘Out of sight, out of mind’ is the operative phrase to remember.
4. Use promotions to promote YOU, Inc. Newspapers often have stories of people being promoted to high levels in different organizations’ This is an opportunity for you.
5. Brand yourself with a slogan. Print a slogan on your business card that answers the question ‘Why should I hire you’ Or “What makes you different from everyone else’” A catchy phrase or slogan insures people ALWAYS associate a company name with their product or services.

There you have it!  I am certain you found something in there that can help you get over any current business plateau you might find yourself on.  Start spreading the word about yourself, watch what returns you will see!
