Top 100 Business Trends of 2014

Comical business cards, interactive advertisements and product vending machines are among some of the most popular 2014 business trends, demonstrating a shift to delight consumers by making the presentation of products and services as enjoyable as possible.

Some of the most standout business cards include playful elements like video games, archery and light-up components, making a new business connection highly memorable, especially as networking goes online.

Another popular pattern is for online retailers and subscription box services like Nasty Gal and Birchbox to open up brick-and-mortar locations. Merging both e-commerce and a physical store location, Sneakerboy Melbourne is unique in that it only serves as a place for consumers to try on shoes and prompts purchases to be made online.
