What should be written on a business card?

Business cards usually include: name, company or business name (usually with a trademark), and contact information (such as street address, phone number, fax number, email address, and website).

Business card (Cantonese: business card; Japanese: 名thorn (めいし); English: Business card) is a card that contains contact information about a company or an individual. It is often used in business transactions. Enjoy as a convenience and memory aid.

The history of the use of business cards in East Asia can be traced back to the official visits during the Warring States Period in China, where "visitors" and "famous thorns" were first given. The famous thorns at that time were made of bamboo or wood chips.

During archaeological excavations in 1984, it was discovered that a "famous thorn" was found in the tomb of Zhu Ran, a general in the Eastern Han Dynasty. This is the oldest famous thorn discovered today.

Zhou Hui said in "Qingbo Magazine": "During the Song and Yuanyou years, servants were often used to carry famous thorns to celebrate the New Year." Western business cards originated from the visit cards of Louis XIV in France in the 17th century.

Business cards also have practical needs in ancient and modern times. In ancient East Asia, in addition to the name and professional title, the name tattoos also contained information such as surname, number, place of birth, etc., indicating family background, origin, etc.

In the past, business cards were printed with business card machines, but now printing machines are widely used for imposition printing, which are so-called color business cards. The printing machine can print business cards in various colors and sizes. Ordinary people can also use a computer to design their own business cards, and use the business card paper to print them with a printer.

With the rapid development of computer technology, electronic business cards are becoming increasingly common. Use mobile business card recognition software to quickly identify business cards and convert them into electronic files.
