Kilala vs Paper Business Cards for Networking and Lead Capture

Kilala vs Paper Business Cards for Networking and Lead Capture

This task can be performed using Kilala

Your next business card isn't a card — it's a link

Share contact details anywhere

For freelancers who meet prospects at events, on calls, and in online communities, a digital business card removes the need to carry or replenish printed cards. It fits any introduction where someone needs your contact details and work in a format they can open immediately.

A useful workflow lets you share one link by message, email signature, social profile, or QR code, then gives the recipient a clear way to save details or respond. A good outcome is more contacts captured, faster follow-up, and visibility into which placements earn clicks.

More about follow-up workflow

Treat each share as the start of lead capture, not the end of an introduction. Decide how prospects should respond before distributing your link.

  • Use the same link across events, profiles, and your email signature so updates do not require reprinting.
  • Put the primary contact or inquiry action first, then remove details that distract from follow-up.
  • Review click analytics after each event or campaign, and compare clicks with leads captured.
