Agreed. When your job requires you to meet new people often or do trade shows, business cards with a qr code are the way to go. At one trade show I collected about 80 cards. About 10 people had special app vcards. Each with a totally different app. I'm not downloading an app for your information. Give me the fucking piece of paper.

However, pro tip. Blank back cards. People want to write notes about you and vice versa. Stop over designing cards with a back. A typical card is not a flyer. You should only hand them out to people you've met and talked to. That same card will fail as that hybrid business card/flyer. You'll never have enough info to justify expecting someone to go "huh, I just found this card somewhere without context and suddenly I'm compelled to talk to them".

My last set of cards had the QR code on the back and the rest of the back was ruled lines for writing on. Folks seemed to get a kick out of it.

I probably need to change that. I have a logo on the back next to my QR code, should probably drop that for blank space.

+1 for blank back and QR code. I meet a bunch of folks for a hobby and this has served me well.
