Class Central Tips

In this 1-hour long project-based course, you will learn how to design a high-quality business card that is professional, attractive and suited for the digital age. With this card, your clients can save your contact details on their mobile in an offline mode with just a click. They will also be able to connect with your Facebook Business page, LinkedIn Id, Twitter and Snapchat. They can Whatsapp you and they will also be able to watch your Youtube promotional videos. They will be able to take a look at all the products and services that you offer on your website. They can text you, call you and email you with just a click. They can also have access to the Google map location of your business. So we will be creating a business card that will be able to do all of these and more. We will also be building a cloud-based Virtual Business card that you can easily share with your clients digitally. In the final task, we will integrate this virtual business card with the physical one in order to maximize the benefits of using both cards: virtual and paper-based. Note: This course works best for learners who are based in the North America region. We’re currently working on providing the same experience in other regions.

Project Overview

We will begin this guided project by creating a canva account in task 1. We will then go through a brief overview of Canva’s dashboard and select a suitable template for our business card. We will then create a Vcard QR code and add it to our business card. We will then design our business card: Both front and rear pages. Then we will create a virtual business card and connect it to Facebook, Linkedin, Whatsapp, Youtube and Google Maps. In the final task, we will integrate this virtual business card with the paper business card inorder to maximize the benefits of using both cards. By the end of this project, you will have an elegant & professional business card that contains all your social media channels and is suitable for the digital age.
