Dating Business Cards

Dating Business Cards

Though saying dating and business cards in the same breath sounds slightly odd, dating business cards are fast becoming the new-age generation's non-traditional mantra for sharing personal contact information with potential partners. These are similar to conventional business cards except that they contain interesting aspects of an individual's unique persona, mentioned with the intention of looking out for and impressing prospective dates. The main purpose of these cards is to protect your work profile and contact information, which you may not be very comfortable sharing with new acquaintances.

Instead of listing information about a company or its products/services, dating business cards are all about you. It can include everything from quirky dimensions of your personality to your passions to your favorite movie. You can also add a popular quote, lines from a bestseller or a movie dialogue that best describes your attitude and take on life.

Attractive, attention-grabbing dating business cards add an exciting aura to your persona and make you come across as an interesting and intelligent person. They are also fantastic conversation starters that help you break the ice with prospective dates in a social gathering or at a club / restaurant / bar. Not many people are familiar with the concept of these business cards and hence it can instantly get them curious and interested. Dating cards also make you come across as an individual who has a life beyond work.

Apart from distinguishing your profile among other prospective dates and making an ever-lasting impression on a potential date, dating business cards are a rather stylish and glamorous way of sharing your contact details. These cards can also be circulated without you having to face a situation where you've taken a fancy for someone but have had no time to initiate a conversation with the individual in a social gathering/restaurant. The cards can be passed on to the target of your interest through a friend or a waiter to help them know you are interested.

Keep your dating business cards sincere and genuine. Avoid making tall claims and faking interests just to impress your potential dates. Several people find individuals who are unpretentious and true to themselves to be highly attractive.

To avoid any complications, you can also enter details about what you are ultimately looking for while dating a person. For instance - "searching for a long-term partner" or "no strings attached dating only". This ensures that the other person and you are on the same page from the beginning. You can also include a funny 'pick-up line' or a tongue-in-cheek 'incentive' like "enter this code on the first call you make and get two dates free".

In place of a designation, you can include a couple of terms under your name that best describe you and your interests. For instance adventure sports freak, closet pop diva, everybody's agony aunt, Czarina of lotions and potions (for the cosmetic buff) and every stray animal's knight in shining armor are some memorable ways to describe your personality and passion.

These are personal cards and hence offer you complete creative freedom for designing them in a way that best represents your character. Add vibrant images, personal photographs, cartoon caricatures, 'photoshoped' versions of your picture or any other cool ideas that can help bring your personality under the spotlight.
