Do You Trust This Person?

Small business owners, if this even slightly resembles what your business cards look like - you’re probably scaring people. Just like a good business card design can make a great impression right off the bat, the opposite is also true. This guy came to my door today claiming he sells Direct TV. He gave me a business card and a photocopied flier as well. I actually seriously considered calling the cops on the guy. I don’t know for sure whether this guy is legit or not, but just by looking at his card, I’m thinking probably not.

There’s not even the slightest chance I would consider calling this guy. Personally, he made a decent impression. He was polite and dressed business casual. Regardless of what he looks like, or what kind of personality he may have had, I don’t believe this guy is legit - and even if he was, from the looks of this card, his service or product is probably REALLY bad. Please, please, small business owners, don’t go out like this guy and scare people out of doing business with you. I beg you!
