In Real Estate, it's very acceptable, and common practice, to include some
type of slogan, saying, quip, quote, etc., on the back of a business card.
For example:

"The highest compliment I can receive is the
referral of friends and family.
Thank you for your trust."

is a commonly used tagline.

In your case, you're probably trying to make a statement about yourself/your
company/your practice, not looking for referral customers...

So, what if your business card said,

--- ----------
--- ??? said,
---
--- "Wise are those who learn that the bottom line
--- doesn't always have to be their top priority."
---
--- Who was it?
---
--- Call us, and we'll tell you who said it,
--- and why it's important to your business."


When the customer calls, tell them who said it (William Arthur Ward), and
why it's important.

Take a look at:

These quotes are not specifically about bookkeeping, but some of them may be
relevant to your field of expertise.

If you have more than one card style, you can give the one most relevant
message to client you encounter.

Okay, okay... I know... Kinda silly... But, then again...

Hope this helps..!
