4 Print Able labels stickers - and get them sent to your hotel or conference centre
5 Write you name and website address on the back of cards you no longer need, such as restaurant cards which you can photograph on your mobile
6 Ask others to photograph your last business card(s) using their mobile
7 Photograph your last business card on your mobile and share the photo with others to give them your address
8 Print company cards or family address cards adding at the top or the bottom of the front or back
the words Presented by ......... Then all the family or both business partners, or whoever runs out of cards first can use the Presented by set as extras.
9 When you have lots of pockets keep all your cards in a holder or simple an elastic band in the lower or upper right hand pocket (if you are aright handed - if not, the left hand pocket).
10 Place two business cards in each pocket of your jacket(s) and every bag and case. Whenever you are asked for a business card or need it in a hurry, you will have a card in whichever pocket you reach into. When you get home, or back to the office, re-fill whichever pocket is empty.
