Pampered Chef Business CardsI like to put magnets on the back of my business cards for my hosts. These can be bought at any office supply store. I give one to each of my hosts when I do her show. They have adhesive on one side to attach your card.
I also print out labels to affix to the back of my cards when I am offering a recruiting or booking or refferal special.

10 Ways to Use Your Pampered Chef Business Card10 WAYS TO USE YOUR BUSINESS CARD
You should be going thru lots and lots of business cards. They do you no good sitting at home in your office.
1. Hand your business card to everyone you do business with.
2. Give out cards at your shows. If you are running a refferal special, slap a label on the back of each card.
3.Give your cards to your family. Have them keep their ears open and viola they can hand someone your card.
4. If you know the owner or manager of stores you frequent, ask if you can leave some of your cards on the counter.
5. Many supermarkets have community boards for flyers. Tack up some of your business cards.
6. If you know other party plan people swap some cards. This way you can refer them and they can refer you when someone is looking for your type of dealer.
7. I heard this a long time ago A best selling sales book suggests you include your card with every bill or piece of correspndance you send out.
8. Always have a big pile with you out at fairs. Often people only want your card. They are easy to carry around.
9. When I send a catalog to someone- I always staple my business card to the front. I feel it makes me appear more business like.
10.turn your business cards into a magnet. The magnetic tape is sold in business card sizes at office supply stores. Give to each host and your special customers.
 
I love the line about "or find a single man for me" LOL! :rolleyes:

recipe on the backI have started to print some of my most liked recipes on the back of my cards. I no longer feel like I am only advertising but also providing a recipe for someone to enjoy. I know they will keep it. ;)

Nice idea ken! :)
 
Instead of buying individual magnets you can also purchase a Xyron machine with a megnetic refill and save some money in the long run. You can also add magnets to about 4 cards at a time. Hope this helps :)
 
Another idea for busniness cards--leave it at the table at a restaraunt for your waitress and offer her something on the back if she calls you! You can also purchase magnets that cover the back of business cards perfectly at Wal-Mart!!
 
Hi All,

Thanks so much
