You’ve probably come across advertisements for “Free Business Cards” online. The question is, how can companies afford to offer something for free without any catch?
I decided to investigate this myself by exploring one of these companies offering free business cards. What I found was intriguing.
Initially, I noticed that while they do offer free business cards, they also provide options for upgrades at an additional cost. This got me thinking: could these upgrades be how they sustain their business model?
As I delved deeper, I discovered that the same company offers a variety of other products beyond just free business cards. They sell magnetic business cards, plastic cards, metal cards, and a range of office stationery including letterheads and custom envelopes.
It became clear that while the basic business cards are free, the company likely generates revenue through the sale of these additional products and upgrades. It’s a smart strategy, considering that many businesses who opt for free cards may also need other stationery items.
Curious to test if these cards truly are free, I decided to place an order myself. I went through the process of designing my business card and proceeded to checkout. There, I encountered several optional upgrades and additions, from extra cards to laminations.
After carefully navigating through these options, I can confirm that “Free Business Cards” can indeed be obtained without any cost, provided you opt out of additional features.
In conclusion, while the initial offer of free business cards may seem too good to be true, it’s important to understand the business model behind it. By offering free cards, companies attract customers who often purchase upgrades or other products, making the free offer sustainable and beneficial for both parties involved.
