Digital business cards explained: What they are & how they work

A digital business card explained in plain terms: what it is, how the exchange works, the three types, and the questions everyone asks before switching from paper. A digital business card is a live profile that lives on your phone: name, title, company, phone, email, and all your links, shared by a link or QR code. Unlike paper, it can't go out of date, it holds as many links as you want, and the person receiving it doesn't need to download anything to save your details.
