Here at Talking Point Cards we’re into technology. We’re hooked up, downloaded and live streaming. And when robot butlers come on board whizzing around with cups of tea and a vacuum, we’ll be first-in-line. We know and love all the benefits of living in this digital age, but one thing we’ve grown tired of is digital relationships.
Difficulties with Digital
Emails, DMs, socials, texting, our thumbs are worn out, our eyes are stinging, and our heads are melted. Misinterpretation is just too easy on screen; a typo, a picture posted from a weird angle, the wrong emoji and woops - you’ve messed up. Without non-verbal cues, it’s impossible to gauge whether or not communication is being received the way you intended it to be. Digital relationships can sometimes feel hollow and one dimensional, a winking emoji will never replace an actual in-real-life wink, let alone an elbow nudge or a hug.
Social Life means Real Life
A life on screen is not real social contact, which is what we social animals need to feel happy. Screen life reduces meaningful relationships and loses beautiful intimate moments, that can only happen when you’re in the same physical space. Sometimes what we really crave is a chat with another person, face to face. To enjoy real company, can feel like an exotic dish we’ve taken off the menu recently.
Build Meaningful Relationships
Talking Point Cards started in 2015 when founder Ben Jones noticed how technology was eating into real genuine human relationships. He didn’t like it. But instead of doing what the rest of us might do – namely nothing - Ben swung into action. After much research he realized just how important conversation was to families and couples in terms of family bonding, relationship building and connections. He created family and couple conversation starters, cards with over 200 talking points to get people talking around the kitchen table again. Inviting families and couples everywhere to unplug, get to know each other and spend quality time together.
Conversations with purpose
And the results are astounding. Thousands of glowing online reviews for these high quality, beautifully designed cards. More importantly, the feedback from customers who are re-connecting and getting to know each other on a deeper level is heartwarming. We’re happy to have started a conversation that doesn’t want to end.

Is there anyone who hasn’t wished they could communicate better?
How much better would life be if you had a better relationship with your spouse? With your children? With your parents? With your friends?
The whole idea behind Talking Point Cards is to strengthen real relationships in a digital world. We hate that our time and attention is increasingly consumed by technology which is replacing real, genuine human relationships.
Your family connections and friendships shouldn’t suffer because TV, social media and online games are replacing our face-to-facetime! That’s why our founder, Ben, originally created Talking Point Cards.

Our Story
Talking Point Cards started in 2015 when founder Ben Jones asked the question: “What is happening to our relationships?”
It seemed that our time was increasingly consumed by technology which had replaced real, genuine human relationships.
His solution to this problem was to reclaim family time from TV, Social Media & Online Games with resources so engaging& useful that everyone would want to unplug to enjoy some quality time& real conversation with friends & family. This is where the idea for Talking Point Cards was born.
The Real-Life Revolution
As Talking Point Cards grew, we noticed that communication was just one area which was suffering from the all-consuming impact of technology.
In response to our customer feedback, we expanded our focus to include physical activity, screen-free entertainment, household management, self-care and mental health products - all to get people of all ages away from the screen and living their happiest, healthiest, most fulfilling life possible.
Our goal is to build a Real-Life Revolution; a worldwide community to offer positive support and products about promoting real relationships and healthy lifestyles in a digital world! This mission pervades everything we do.
