    PRESENTING AND HANDLING OF BUSINESS CARDS

     Understanding business etiquette allows


    you to feel comfortable in your dealings
    with foreign friends, colleagues, customers
    or clients. Knowing what to do and say in
    the right places will help build trust and
    open lines of communication
     For example, in Japan the business card
    is viewed as a representation of the
    owner. Therefore proper business
    etiquette demands one treats the business
    card with respect and honour
     Business cards are an internationally recognised means
    of presenting personal contact details, so ensure you
    have a plentiful supply.

     Demonstrating good business etiquette is merely a


    means of presenting yourself as best you can. Failure to
    adhere to foreign business etiquette does not always
    have disastrous consequences.

     When traveling abroad for business it is advisable to


    have one side of your business card translated into the
    appropriate language.

     Business cards are generally exchanged at the


    beginning of or at the end of an initial meeting.
     Good business etiquette requires you
    present the card so the recipient's
    language is face up.

     Make a point of studying any business


    card, commenting on it and clarifying
    information before putting it away.
    Business Card Etiquette in China

     Have one side of your business card translated into Chinese using
    simplified Chinese characters that are printed in gold ink since gold
    is an auspicious colour.

     Ensure the translation is carried out into the appropriate Chinese


    dialect, i.e. Cantonese or Mandarin.

     Your business card should include your title. If your company is the
    oldest or largest in your country, that fact should be highlighted on
    your card.

     Hold the card in both hands when offering it.

     Never write on someone's card unless so directed.


    Business Card Etiquette in India

     If you have a university degree or any honour,


    put it on your business card.

     Always use the right hand to give and receive


    business cards.

     Business cards need not be translated into


    Hindi as English is widely spoken within the
    business community
    Business Card Etiquette in Japan

     Business cards are exchanged with great ceremony.

     Invest in quality cards.

     Always keep your business cards in pristine condition.

     Treat the business card you receive as you would the


    person.
     Make sure your business card includes your title. The
    Japanese place emphasis on status and hierarchy.

     Business cards are always received with two hands but


    can be given with only one.

     During a meeting, place the business cards on the table


    in front of you in the order people are seated.

     When the meeting is over, put the business cards in a


    business card case or a portfolio.
    Business Card Etiquette in the UK
     Business card etiquette is relaxed in the UK and
    involves little ceremony.

     It is not considered bad etiquette to keep cards in a


    pocket.

     Business cards should be kept clean and


    presentable.

     Do not feel obliged to hand out a business card to


    everyone you meet as it is not expected
