It depends on what purpose a business card is supposed to have. I'd anticipate 
the following scenario: Alice comes the Sage booth, likes what she sees and 
needs something to remind here of Sage after the joint meeting. So Bob hands 
her a business card of Sage.

I don't think a business card should be used as a flyer/leaflet/etc.

Just my 5 pence (not much money these days)
