How to Put Twitter & Facebook Account on a Business Card

A business card without Twitter or Facebook information might as well be blank.

In spite of the predominance of electronic means of marketing and advertising, the traditional business card still has the potential to make an impact. One way to maximize your chances of success is to provide as many options for further contact as possible on your card. Link others to your social media sites like Twitter and Facebook right on your business card.

Instructions

1. Download small versions of the Facebook and Twitter logos -- represented by stylized "f" and "t" monograms, respectively -- and place them on your business card in front of your screennames for both sites.

2. Insert an uppercase or lowercase "t" and "f" on your card and type your screenname behind the appropriate letter if you can't find the Twitter or Facebook monograms, or simply feel they don't mesh with your business card's aesthetic.

3. Type out your full Facebook or Twitter addresses -- facebook.com/screenname or twitter.com/screenname -- if you have enough room on your card and more importantly, if doing so doesn't make the card appear visually cluttered. Be careful when typing long strings of text on cards, which may overload prospective clients with information.
