I give my card to everyone and anyone. I never leave my house without some business cards because you just never know when you will run into a future client. __________________ Lee Drozak My Office Assistant

I agree with Lee - you never know who you might meet, etc. It's always good to get your business name out there, get people thinking about what you do and how you might help them or someone they know. Even if you're not 'networking' in everyday life, you might consider business networking events or Chamber of Commerce meetings and you'd definitely want business cards with you in those cases. __________________ Create a welcome packet for new clients with this guide and free templates!
