"Ken at Biz Buzzio designed a Digital Business Card for my Holistic Therapies business.My clients can add it to their phone homescreen and it makes booking their next treatment so much easier, as they have instant access to my booking system with one click.Ken is lovely and very easy to work with. He cares about the businesses he works with and listens to what you need.
Highly recommend!"Emma Ventress

If you hand out traditional printed business cards then you understand their value.
However, we are now in the Digital age and virtually everyone you come into contact with has a mobile phone.Introducing a digital version of your business card has a range of benefits.
Traditional business cards are often discarded or lost.However, generally people try very hard to not lose their phones.So if your Digital Business Card is texted to their phone >>>(even better then Added to their phone Home screen as a clickable icon shortlink)>>> there is no better place for your business to be positioned - handy and just one click to contact you.
Your DBC will be designed to give people just the information they need when they are considering your services - no clutter and no distractions.1) What do you do?
2) What are your reviews like?
3) How can they contact you conveniently?We intentionally only provide the option to contact you by SMS text.This is because SMS text is the best channel for initial engagement between you and your potential next client.
You can pick up a complimentary DBC completely FREE when you secure a Foundation Membership with LBSC Harrogate District for just £99 per year.
People prefer to send an SMS text message over making a phone call.They may want to avoid the possibility of getting into a pressured sales call.The fact that you don't do high pressure sales calls is irrelevant - they don't know you or your business, and might not call you for that reason - this is just a reality.However, they are very comfortable with sending a text message - which is perfect of course.You are busy running your business - and as much as phone call inquiries are welcome - they do interrupt your day.Much better to steer inquiries to SMS text.Your phone SMS notification goes 'ding' and you reply when it's convenient and safe.
Of course, you should respond sooner than laterAn SMS text inquiry is someone interested in your service, so they could go with a local competitor if you are slow to respond.Repond within a few minutes when possible and you will be in a great position.Your reponse SMS also does not interrupt their day.Since they messaged you, they might have set off driving or gone back to work etcResponding to their SMS inquiry by SMS text is so much better than getting no answer or being sent to voicemail.99% of your SMS text responses will be read when it's convenient for your potential next client to check their messages.The more you use your DBC in your everyday business, the more you will reap the rewards!
Where, when and how do you use your DBC?Whenever you are asked for your business card - just pull up the DBC on your phone in a second - ask them for their mobile number and Share.Add the accompanying QR code to your printed busines card and any printed literature or signage.Post your DBC QR code on your Social media - people can scan it from their desktop or tablet with their phone.
SMS text is the best way to establish trust with your prospective next client - you can schedule a consultation by SMS or switch to a phone call conversation, whichever you prefer.For some TSP (Trade, Service, Professional) businesses their prospective client might gather up 2 or 3 estinates / quotes.A simple SMS text message landing on their phone from you while they are weighing up the proposals, might be all that is needed to swing them over to your business.If you consistently share your DBC every day, you will be pleasantly surprised when inquiries come in by SMS text.
