What to put on business cards?

[speg]

I just got some free business cards, what should I put on them...

I suppose they will be for a mix of personal/business. Should I put my degree? Or just job titles? How about a joke?

What do you guys put on yours?

Just put your contact information. Name, phones, email, address, website.

Throw an inspiring quote on there if the card looks oddly empty.

Logo, name (and job title), degree depending on field, phone#, address, email

If I made up my own I would put a funny quote on them too.

Since watching that film it's impossible for me to consider business cards without thinking of it

Of the half dozen places I worked over teh past 10 years, I've had business cards at 3 of them. I have Never, Ever, Ever actually used a business card. People give me theirs, I shrug in response, forgetting I actually have 9,997 left in my desk. Thats because i dropped one into a fishbowl for a free lunch chance (damn mistake that - its a marketing ploy), gave one to my wife and one to my moms.

I've used business cards hundreds of times for our farm. They've more than paid for themselves in gained business. I think we had the ability to get them for free from Vistaprint, but we opted for non-free cards that didn't have vistaprint advertising on the back, and which gave us a little more freedom about what was on the card. (Plus, we got a crapload of free stuff that more than made up for what we paid for the cards.)
