Digital business card software enables professionals to share contact information and connect digitally with customers, partners and prospects. Digital business cards can be shared via a QR code, export function, text or email, depending on the specific software used. An alternative to using paper business cards, digital business card software allows users to capture leads, trigger automated follow-ups, store contact information, and integrate with other enterprise CRM software. In general, digital business card software helps a business keep customer contact data more organized, and enables the ability to streamline follow-ups with customers and prospects so as to strengthen the business relationships. Storing unlimited amounts of contact data expands a business’s networking capabilities, keeps track of partnerships that develop and updates instantly to always give accurate contact information when requested.
Digital business cards work for sales teams directly in being able to capture leads efficiently and track prospects as the user connects with others. Allowing sales reps to track prospects saves time and effort for the user as they can spend time making deals and connections rather than searching for contact information. In addition to benefiting sales teams, digital business card software helps users across all industries modernize the business card collection and distribution process. For example, digital business card software is also commonly implemented by recruiters to collect digital business cards during a networking event. Once uploaded, recruiters can quickly access the repository of contact information related to the potential hires, streamlining the recruitment process.
Although digital business card software can be used on its own to store contact information and help companies capture prospective leads, there are other software solutions that work well alongside these platforms. Business card scanning software helps users scan and manage digital business cards by scanning or uploading information from paper business cards to the digital business card platform. Buyers also use digital business card software in conjunction withlead capture software to help sales teams track new sales opportunities and manage lists of potential customers using the stored business card data.
