When doing business, it is important to understand the business etiquette. One aspect of etiquette that is of great importance is the exchanging of business cards, which is viewed as a representation of the owner. Therefore proper business etiquette demands one who treats the business card with respect and honor.

A business card is one’s first impression when meeting with important clients or business associates. It serves as a means of introduction and as a way to ensure that your acquaintance can at a glance glean and later refer to your professional details. Given the fact that most companies spend a great deal of money and energy designing their business cards, it makes sense to treat them as an effective business tool.
