Networking Opportunities in Your Hometown

Posted on: August 31st, 2012 by eliteflyers.com No Comments
Seeing as we’re in the business card business, we often have conversations with customers about how their companies are doing.

Posted on: August 30th, 2012 by eliteflyers.com No Comments
It's hard to deny that the average workplace – and the world – has gotten more casual these days. Dress-down Fridays seem to have bled into the rest of the work week; whereas a three-piece suit was the common uniform for most desk jockeys 30 years ago, today a typical workaday guy would probably be exceeding dress code standards by pulling on a polo shirt and khaki pants. These kinds of casual clothes are certainly more comfortable than the stuffy suits of yesteryear, and it would be plausible to argue that ...

“Concise.” It’s arguably one of the greatest words in the English language. Its definition is “expressing or covering much in few words.” That’s a beautiful thing. And it’s what you should strive for when you make the elevator pitch that should accompany your handing out your business card. An elevator pitch should take no longer than an elevator ride – somewhere around 30 seconds. That’s all you should need in order to tell an interested party what it is that you do, and why you’re great at it. Whew! Here’s ...

How to Give a Great Speech in 3 Easy Steps

Posted on: August 27th, 2012 by eliteflyers.com No Comments
There are many things the average person would rather do than write and/or perform a speech. Among them might be activities like holding onto an electric fence while standing in a puddle and wearing copper shoes, and receiving root canal surgery without anesthesia in front of an audience consisting of all the pretty girls in your high school class. But sometimes in life, we have no choice. People get married and have the nerve to ask us to be the best men or bridesmaids… and speak publicly at their weddings. ...

Blog sites, company Facebook pages, and corporate Twitter accounts are always announcing giveaways these days. Giveaways are definitely a great way to draw attention to your product or service – but they have to be done right to be effective. Think about it: people love to get stuff for free, but when something is promised to them for free and then they don’t receive it because of unclear instructions or a botched job on the company’s part, they are sure to adopt a lifelong resentment toward the offending ...
