What’s the most futuristic thing you can imagine? For many, it’s the hoverboard, or maybe more appropriately the hover car. This contactless method of transportation was popularized from the moment viewers saw the classic Back to the Future Trilogy. The reality manifested first in the ways we pay our bills: contactless payments and statements took rise as a way to save paper. This trend has only continued growing in popularity, as more and more people want to use a digital means to solve all their contact management woes.

The contactless payment market is expected to hit $18 billion in the next five years. That means almost all of the payments we make on a day to day basis will be done in a manner that is completely contactless. What does that mean for contact management? We’re always looking for ways to make life easier and healthier. How can we apply these concepts to our digital communications even more? StayTouch seeks to answer that question as efficiently as possible.

The Usefulness of a Touchless Contacts App

Covid-19 has changed our world on a permanent basis. Society is ever more concerned with sanitation: the less we have to physically touch things as we move about our world, the happier we are. Ranking in importance right alongside cleanliness is speediness, ease of access, and simplification. Easy relationship management is imperative for any social butterfly on the go–otherwise, they’ll miss out on valuable connections.

Instead of handing someone your physical business card these days, you’re much more likely to link with them on your networking apps. To do this with the most ease, you might want to explore having a QR code business cards scanner, especially if you’re always on the go. When you’re sharing your digital business card, you want ease. It simply takes too much time to sift through all your social networking apps to connect on all of them.

The Constant Evolution of Contact Management

Contactless networking allows for far more ease of access than traditional forms of relationship management. When you’re able to condense all of your information into a simple and scannable format, you’re able to garner more followers and connections on the websites you may have otherwise forgotten to mention. Plus, you don’t have to touch their phone, which is an attractive option for a variety of reasons.

Our cell phones are becoming pocket terminals for a variety of purposes, and the platforms we use them to access are far more accommodating than they have been in the previous decades. StayTouch provides an all-in-one access point for your business relationships, your everyday networking, and the seamless transfer of your digital business card. When you tap into a contact management software, you’re probably looking for a quick way to grab a ton of contacts in just a few minutes. As you’re on your way out of a meeting, all you have to do is tap your phone to theirs, and you’re set.

This method of transfer is only going to grow in popularity. How could it not? Social networking apps are an imperative method of growing your brand and creating social awareness around who you are and what you do. Your next biggest contact could easily be missed if you don’t have an instantaneous method of scoring their apps for contact. They’re probably in just as much of a hurry as you are. Don’t miss out on the wave. Make sure you’ve got a solid way to keep tabs on the digital business cards you grab from others, and the ones you share as you build the bridges that will carry you to your future.
