Do I need a business card? Probably not right now. But we are still getting it. However, I was recently at a social where I wanted to give my email address to a fellow computer scientist who is also a business owner. It worked out since everyone carry phones but when I remember the feeling of someone giving me their business card (business owner or not), there is just a different feel to it… so I felt bad for not having one.
This makes me wonder. Is there a reason why some companies give a fancy card to employees of any rank? Does it have a proven effect or is it just show-off, like it is going to be in my case.
In any case, I will look forward to the next time someone asks for my email.
