Mystery Shopper Business Cards

Does anyone have their own business cards with "Freelance Audit Professional" or something of that nature ? What are ya'lls thoughts on this ?

Years ago, a few of the women who went to the IMSC conferences had them. I thought it was weird; like @shopnyc said, who do you give them to?
Exactly! What would be the purpose of mystery shopped business cards. It's no longer a mystery if you advertise that you are a mystery shopper.
You can drop them into fishbowls at some businesses to enter to win a prize. At least you used to be able to.
When I am doing some shops, I often mention I do freelance work and I usually get asked what I do. I have stuck with property inspections for businesses who are looking to refinance or get a loan. I have been asked for a business card several times now. I just say I only carry them when I go to jobs. But for mystery shopping.. I would never do that. It could potentially get back to people and then they look you up on social media or wherever. I know if you google my name, I am listed in my company directory with a picture so I don't think that is a good idea.
If you want to put your card in for a drawing, you don't need a mystery shopping card to do so. Just get cards saying "freelancer" as one suggested above.
Interesting.

That makes a lot of sense. Thank you, from a newbie at this.

I have business cards that say, Consultant. I do consult in many different areas (outside of MSing), and if I saw a need to expand upon that term, it easily includes MSing.

I've been asked for my business card several times when doing revealed audits, especially at tax places. I never had one, but could see where it might come in handy in those instances.

The last time I was looking for a paycheck job I had cards made for networking purposes, then discovered they were also handy to give out to acquaintances who wanted my contact information.
