You be the judge ...
I'd wager that the aluminum business card above, a gift I received from Harvey Mackay, is worth more than a $2.35-million Honus Wagner baseball card.
It's simple math, really ...
Harvey told me he handed out his innovative card in the late '60s and early '70s. That means:
- if Harvey's card started conversations that helped him open just 2 new accounts per year from 1968 to 1972 (10 new accounts total) ...
- and each account stayed with Mackay Envelope for 5 years ...
- and each account bought an average of $50,000 a year from Harvey ...
- the total lifetime value of those 10 accounts would be $2.5 million.
Sort of makes you look at your business card a bit differently, doesn't it?
More importantly, it makes you want to invest a little more time and money in designing a business card that stands out from the crowd.
Because, if you play your card right, it could turn out to be more valuable than ...
... a $2.35-million Honus Wagner card.
