Bilingual Business Cards
At Lotus Graphics we are experts in the preparation of culturally
appropriate business cards for visitors to Korea, Japan, and China.
We can match the graphic layout from your existing English-language
card so that your cards retain a consistent and professional look,
projecting a uniform corporate identity. If you dont already
have a design you can choose one of ours - we can still include your
company logo. We supply the translation and layout, together with
top quality printing if required. Alternatively, use our express file
service which guarantees to have your card ready within 3 days. Its
quick and easy, you can order online. You can also pay online, if
you wish, at no extra cost, via PayPal, an extremely secure and reputable
e-commerce service that puts the highest priority on the privacy and
security of clients. (PayPal is owned by eBay.) We dont just
translate your card, we make sure your card is linguistically, culturally,
and design-optimised, so you'll get the most out of each and every
business meeting. Our comprehensive one-stop package includes: cultural
review and adaptation of your card, professional translation of your
card into the local language of your destination, typesetting of both
sides with identical formatting in two languages, and emailed proof
of the draft for your review and approval.

Why Do I Need Them?
Localized business cards are an indispensable tool for anyone doing
business in Korea, Japan or China, and to be caught without them is
a serious breach of business etiquette and a major social blunder.
Without them your trip will be a series of awkward moments. With them
you will demonstrate that you are taking your business in East Asia
seriously. Offering your clients and business associates your business
card in their native language shows that you understand and respect
their culture. Its also an important way of ensuring that your
company, title, and other crucial information is communicated accurately
and impressively. In the East, even more than in other parts of the
world, it is essential to establish your group identity and your position
within that group. A bilingual card will do more than identify you
as an individual, it will explain your status and help you to create
that all-important first impression. Making this small effort is sure
to pay big dividends, theres no more cost-effective investment
you could make to ensure the success of your trip. |
Business Cards and Oriental Manners
Cards are exchanged at the beginning of a meeting; make sure you have
enough available for everyone. On receiving a business card from a
Korean, Japanese or Chinese person you should nod your head to show
respect and you should also express thanks for the opportunity of
meeting them. Review your counterpart's card carefully, you might
want to speak his/her name and position to be sure of correct pronunciation,
and then put the card away, perhaps in a wallet or shirt pocket, but
dont shove it in your back pocket. It is also preferable to
present your card to a new acquaintance before you ask for theirs,
and it is considered polite to use both hands when giving or receiving
a card, or anything else. A gentle nod of the head is fine when meeting
people similar to you in age or rank, but with senior individuals
you should make it closer to a bow, and stay down for a brief moment.
You should also be sure to stand up when exchanging cards with a senior
person. East Asians hand out their business card at the drop of a
hat. Don't be left out!
