Big changes to my business give me the opportunity to do some other tweakage. And I've decided that one of those tweaks will be removing the lines with my Twitter handle and Facebook Page URL.
Why I'm Taking Facebook and Twitter Off My Business Cards

I've to do up new ones and have been thinking about not including them. The equity of your business should be on your website - that's what you control.
However, my concern for you is that while you're moving into content marketing as well as social media, you'll still be seen as social media consultant and people equate social media with FB, Twitter, Linkedin etc so potential clients may be put off by their absence.
Just a thought to add to the others.
All the best,
Denise

Glad to see you're taking your business to the next level! More modern marketing firms should see the possibilities beyond Facebook and Twitter and thanks so much for sharing this post with the BizSugar community, but I'm not sure I completely agree with you on this one. See, increasingly, I believe, people hiring consultants for this kind of work want to see it comes naturally to them in the same way talking on the phone does, and, no, to this day not everyone is on Facebook, Twitter, or even LinkedIn. I think, instead of subtracting, I'd want to add my LinkedIn profile and maybe my Google+ account and a YouTube channel, if you have one. Sure there may be a different mix of social media tools in the future, but frankly, I think the ones I've mentioned will probably be there at least until you run out of cards. It's great to draw traffic through your own Website too, and social media might only be a dimension of what you do, but it's an important one and something I believe clients increasingly want to see, no matter how your business is changing.
