  1. A quick pre-event checklist for making sure your digital card supports the conversations you want to have.

Conference days move fast. A short card audit the day before prevents stale details, broken links, and weak positioning from getting in the way.

Check the essentials

  • Name and title are current
  • Company and website are correct
  • Email and phone are the channels you actually want to use
  • Profile photo is recognizable
  • Primary link opens without login or errors

Tune the card to the event

If the event is about partnerships, make your partnership link visible. If it is about hiring, emphasize your team page or portfolio. A digital card should be specific to the moment.

Test the scan

Open the QR code on one device and scan it from another. This catches display brightness, bad links, and accidental old profiles before the room fills up.

Ten minutes of preparation can save dozens of awkward exchanges during the event.
