Here is a target we are happy to be held to. Within the next two years, we want Lets Connect to be the first name people think of when they think "business card", anywhere in the world.
That is a big thing for a two-year-old company from Wolverhampton to say. Nobody can promise the future, and we will not pretend to. What we can do is set out why we believe it is possible, and what we are doing about it.
1. The category is changing hands right now
Paper business cards are still printed in huge numbers, and most end up in a drawer or a bin. At the same time, almost every phone sold today can read an NFC tag without an app. The old way is on its way out, and no single brand owns the new way yet.
Categories get new leaders at moments like this. The leader is rarely the oldest company. It is usually the one that understood what people needed next.
2. We sell an outcome, not a card
Ask someone why they carry business cards and the real answer is: "so the people I meet turn into customers, partners or friends." A card is only the first step.
Most products in this space stop at sharing contact details. Ours carries on:
- details saved to their phone in one tap, no app
- every contact stored in your own CRM, with notes
- a card scanner for the paper cards you are handed
- bookings, enquiry forms and Google reviews built in
- an AI assistant that answers questions about your business at any hour
When you solve the whole job, people stop comparing you with other cards.
3. Pay once is the fairest price in the market
A $7.99 monthly plan costs $288 over three years, per person. A Lets Connect card costs $30 once, with unlimited edits, and there is a free plan for a digital profile and QR code.
For a sole trader that is a saving. For a team of fifty it is a budget line that disappears. Fair pricing is a slow way to grow at first and a fast way later, because customers recommend what they do not resent paying for.
4. It works for one person and for five thousand
The same product serves a florist, an estate agent and a company issuing staff ID cards. Teams get shared branding, bulk discounts and one place to manage everyone's profile. Resellers and distributors can carry it into markets we have not reached ourselves.
A product that fits one person and scales to a whole company without changing shape can spread quickly.
5. The early proof is there
- 500+ customers and 1,000+ products sold in two years
- customers in 5+ countries
- 5.0 on Google and on Trustpilot
- finalist for Rising Star in Workplace Technology at the UC Awards 2026
- shortlisted at the West Midlands Growth Awards, for the company and for our founder
- launch coverage across 417 news outlets
None of that makes us the leader today. It does show the idea works, people like it, and the industry has started to notice.
6. What we will do in the next 24 months
- Be where people network. Starting with The Business Show London at ExCeL on 11 and 12 November 2026 (Stand 1502), and UK expos through the winter.
- Make the free plan the easiest first step. Anyone can have a digital card in two minutes.
- Keep building the follow-up tools. The CRM, the scanner, bookings and the AI assistant are where we are furthest ahead, so that is where we keep investing.
- Grow through partners. Resellers, distributors and event organisers in new countries.
- Stay pay-once. We will not move the card to a subscription.
Hold us to it
Leadership in a category is decided by customers, not by the company claiming it. So our request is simple. Try it, tell us what is missing, and tell someone else if it works for you.
Start with a free profile, or compare the cost with subscription cards.
