Hello, everyone. My name's Andres Mulligan. I'm very happy to be joining this team for the next few months and learning more about research and development.
Which information do people have on their business cards in your country?
I think a business card should have important information such as name, phone number, email and position and, I think it's common in all countries. But based on business sometimes a business card can also have address, barcode or QR code to able audience to scan it. In my perspective a business card must be simple , beautiful and it should made of good materials.
I like your idea ☺️
In my country most of the people whom use business cards are professionals or independent technicians which has high positions in companies like team leaders, managers, directors, etc. or work as freelancers. The information they usually put in the cards are their full name, their profession, their office number and mobile number as well as their email account in order to reach them.
People whom works at middle or low level positions as employees don't use business cards very often.
Thanks for the lesson.
Great site!
