Traveller Kids is really creative! Check out their visiting card!
I met the Shitij Malhotra the 'Chief' of a Company called Traveller Kids at a Kids Expo in Delhi recently.
As usual, I was in a rush and barely got to exchange ideas with him, but what did catch my attention was his unique Business Card.
Starting with this post, therodinhoods.com will attempt to showcase (and encourage contributions) in a new section of the site called Creativity!
The concept is to highlight that beyond plain dumb and wasteful 'paid' marketing, it's ideas like these that add that special boost to a Company's viral and image marketing and gets it serious fans and users!
I always emphasize on getting the product right and packaging it innovatively to sell the story, rather than a sad ad.
Check out the card(s)
I just loved the experience of making a paper plane out a visiting card and believed the message that Shitij sent me as a follow up:

Well done Shitij!!

Abey, I am talking about the design of the card sample I have posted above, and my comment has nothing to do with Shitij's card. It is definitely a brilliant concept and I won't comment on it.

I quite liked the idea of having a QR code on the visiting card and we did think of putting it. I think we will see alot of cards with QR codes in the near future, though much smaller.
I'm also a big fan of putting your photo on your visiting card, the Chinese/Taiwanese/Singapore guys do this very often and it is so useful to remember a person and the entire conversation just by looking at their photo.
We tried doing both of these things on the card, but the paper plane won our heart and the designer didn't have any real estate left.
Another very important thing to put is what your company does, especially if you are not a brand and your name is not self explanatory.
I think quirky visiting cards are a very massive motivation tool for employees especially younger/junior ones who want something to show the world what they are doing.

Oh hey! The man himself. Hope you are okay with the dig I took at your name. And my apologies if you found it offensive. It wasn't meant to be.
It's not the quirky so much as the emotion it engenders that anchors it. You have pretty cards all over the place. Pretty but forgetable.

No offense taken, but the comment wasn't required.
Cheers

Understood. I am so used to my name being mangled in all languages that I applied the same yardstick. Guess it doesn't work that way.

We used this till this season. But we guess it hasn't been quite attractive and may be many people didn't understand that the fruit (mango) is actually the chief, as it will stay for years and we will come and go! Thinking of changing by the next season!

What does 'Rodinhood' mean?
Rodinhood is inspired from Rodin - who sculpted 'The Thinker' and Robin Hood who 'got things done'. Hence Thinking+Doing = Rodinhood.
