When handing the business card to the other party, smile, look at the other party, face the business card to the other party, and hold the two corners at the top of the business card with your thumb and forefinger. If you are sitting, you should stand up or bend over to pass it. When you send it, you should say something like "My name is XXX, and this is my business card, please accept it" and "My business card, please accept it". Pay attention to handing business cards: people with low status give business cards to people with high status first, and men give business cards to women first. When facing many people, you should first give your business card to someone with a higher position or an older age. If you can't tell the position from the older one, you can exchange business cards with the person opposite to the left.
In social situations, business cards are a simple way to introduce yourself. The order of exchanging business cards is generally: "first customer, then master, first low, then high". When exchanging business cards with many people, you should follow the order of your duties, or from near to far, and don't do it overnight, lest the other party mistakenly think that there is a sense of favoritism. After the introduction, don't rush to hand over the business card without knowing the identity of the other party, and don't just distribute it as a leaflet.
When exchanging business cards with others, you should get into the habit of remembering their names. Business cards are "works" to express themselves. If you don't value other people's names, who will value you! In addition, when exchanging business cards, keep them clean and tidy, and don't easily alter or take notes on your own business cards or other people's business cards, because this will cause others psychological unhappiness.
Actually, there is a way to remember names. When we often exchange business cards on some occasions, don't stuff them into your pockets when you get them. Why don't you look at the business card and recite each other's names and contents? Then when you go back that day, make a little note and tidy up your business cards. In the workplace, it is really important to remember people's names and organize business cards. Remember your name and call him as soon as possible. When you're finished, it's important to keep in touch, which is very important for building a personal network.
Just talking about exchanging business cards, in fact, this is also skillful. First of all, in crowded places, be sure to bring enough business cards. Secondly, we should pay attention to the timing of issuing business cards. Sometimes people don't want your business card, but you force it on them, which is not good. Also, when you want to send a business card, it depends on whether anyone holds it. It's inconvenient for you to hold it. Maybe at the reception, someone had food in his hand, but you didn't take your business card, but you sent it to him. Of course he is embarrassed not to take it, but it will cause others to dislike you! Even the business card was thrown into the trash can as soon as it was taken. Or when others are talking, don't interrupt the conversation and send out business cards.
When you receive a business card from someone else, you should get up as soon as possible, smile, grasp the two corners under the business card with your thumb and forefinger, and say "thank you", "I am deeply honored to get your business card" and so on. Then there is a process of reading business cards with a smile. When reading, you can read each other's names and titles loudly, and look up at each other's faces to give them a sense of satisfaction. After receiving your business card, you can't put it anywhere. If it's the first time we meet, it's best to read the important contents on the business card. When the other party hands you a business card, if you don't bring it or not, you should apologize to the other party first, and then truthfully explain the reasons. Before the other party leaves, or the topic is not over yet, there is no need to accept the other party's business card in a hurry.
In modern society, the use of business cards has become an indispensable behavior in social and business occasions. When we first meet, we usually give each other business cards. As a "letter of introduction" for self and a "friendship card" for social interaction, business cards can prove identity, establish good relationships, contact old friends and make new friends in interpersonal communication. But we often see many friends lose their manners in social or business situations.
First of all, let's talk about the types of business cards. Maybe you often receive business cards, which have their own characteristics. Some business cards are printed with various titles, and some business cards don't even have phone numbers. It's really different So how many types of general business cards are there? Generally, there are three types:
First, social business cards: the general format is name, address, zip code, telephone number, email address, etc.
2. Business card: In addition to name, address, zip code and telephone number, there are also company, professional title and social part-time job.
3. Business card: On the basis of professional business card, the business items and business scope of the company are generally reflected on the back.
The above three types of business cards are common, but there is often a misunderstanding in the use of business cards in China. It seems that you must write all your brilliant achievements and great achievements on your business card in order to improve your social status. Maybe you've all seen it. A business card is full of titles, accounting for almost 65,438+0/2 of the business card. This practice does not conform to the etiquette norms, and it will also make people laugh. The correct way is that if you have multiple titles and positions, you can print business cards separately and use different business cards on different occasions. You can't have more than two titles and positions in a personal business card, so as not to show off yourself.
Then, let's discuss how to pass and exchange business cards correctly. When passing and exchanging business cards, it is an important manifestation of a person's cultivation and quality, especially for the first time, exchanging business cards is often essential. This small card often not only represents your own image and quality, but also reflects the image of the enterprise in some business occasions. The correct way to transfer business cards is to hold the business cards gently with the thumb and forefinger of both hands at the two corners inside the body, and the direction of the words is at a 45-degree angle to each other. Get up and stand, lean forward slightly 15 degrees, and hand it to the other party with a smile: "This is my business card, please give me more advice. . "。 This is the correct way to deliver business cards. Be careful not to cover your name or company name with your fingers, and your voice is supercilious.
How to correctly accept each other's business cards? The order of receiving business cards is to accept the business cards sent by the other party with both hands, gently nod and say hello, and quickly browse the business cards. Finally, looking at the other person's face, he smiled and said, "It's Mr. XXX from XXX Company. I've heard a lot about you." . . "It should be noted that if there are uncommon words on the business card, you should ask the other party immediately, and don't read homophones indiscriminately to avoid embarrassment; It is also very impolite to glance back and forth on each other with a business card. However, we often encounter such a situation: you give the other party a business card, and the other party exchanges business cards with you. At this time, you also stand up, lean forward slightly 15 degrees, gently hold the top edge of the business card with the index finger and middle finger of your right hand, and hand it to the other person at a 45-degree angle. At the same time, the palm of your left hand holds the customer card upward, so you can browse the card quickly and read the company, name and title on the business card in the order you received it. It should be noted that after receiving each other's cards, never put them in pants pockets or skirt pockets, let alone on the table. Generally speaking, men usually put them in the inner pocket of a suit jacket or the chest pocket of a shirt. If there is a card holder, it will usually be put in the card holder, and women will usually put it in the card holder. If not, they usually put them in their carry-on bags.
Transaction method: You give your business card to the other party, and the other party will give you his business card. We said, "Come without indecent assault, and you want to take it, but you don't get it."
Modesty: this is mainly aimed at elders and celebrities.
Modesty is often used when addressing important customers and VIP customers in marketing. "XXX, I admire you just mentioned your entrepreneurial history. (praising each other) I wonder if there will be any chance to ask you again in the future? (Cut to the chase), XXX, I don't know how to ask you in the future? " The implication is that how can I contact you in the future; Of course, if the other party wants to give us a card, they will give it to us, but if they don't, we will also have face under the steps. Of course, not everyone can use the humility method, and an elderly man can't use it on a young lady: "Excuse me, young lady, how can I ask you?" This sounds a little awkward. So there is the following method:
Equality law: Generally speaking, we usually use the "equality law" between elders and younger generations, between superiors and subordinates, and between peers. For example, "XXX, it's a pleasure to meet you. You are engaged in enterprise management, and I run (or lead) a team myself. I can discuss this problem with you later. I don't know how to contact you in the future? " This is the equality law, and the biggest difference between it and the humility law is the difference in expression. The humility method is "how to ask you in the future" and the equality method is "how to contact you in the future". Its meaning is how can I find you in the future? You have to respect me. Give it to me. If you look down on me, don't give it to me. I have a way out.
