Personalized Business Cards

Consider the following scenario:

You’ve just finished a long chat with a potential employer at a networking event. Everything is going great, and having been impressed with your communication skills and business acumen, they ask you for your contact information …but you don’t have a business card! All sorts of things begin to run through your mind, “What do I do? What kind of impression does this make? Do other students have business cards? Why didn’t I think of this?”

The LAA recognizes that business cards are essential to effective networking. We never want to see you in this unfortunate scenario, so LAA Associate Members are able to purchase personalized business cards, without the hassle of designing and printing them! Order forms are available for download here. You can also preview the two available designs through the following link:
