Thank you, this should help. It seems pretty straightforward, and I hope I won't have any problems down the road.

I'm trying to set up a system to start using QR codes for inventory management, and probably product packaging too. It's a small tool manufacturer, a family business, and they asked me if I could help. Their budget is modest, and our families have been friends for many years, so I really want to do this right. I am experienced with using QR codes, but not really in such large numbers. There must be a better way than creating a hundred QR codes one by one.

I think this is a good idea, I helped a friend do it last year (basically, we found a great guide with a bunch of tips and implemented most of them). Generally, QR codes on vehicles are an excellent way to expand your marketing reach. I would opt for dynamic QR codes. These allow you to update the link or content behind the code without changing the code itself. It’s handy for running time-sensitive promotions or linking to different campaigns over time.

You should make the QR code large enough to scan from a reasonable distance - usually at least 10x10 cm, depending on your vehicle. Place it on flat, visible surfaces like the side doors or back . Avoid areas prone to distortion like curves.

I suggest you use QR codes with high error correction (Level H) so they remain scannable even if they get slightly damaged due to wear and tear. And make sure the code contrasts sharply with the vehicle's background color. Adding a white background or border around the QR code can improve visibility. Also, add text like “Scan to Learn More!” or “Discover Deals Here!” near the QR code to encourage people to engage with it (this would be your CTA).

Before finalizing, you should test the code by scanning it from different distances and angles, including while the vehicle is in motion (preferably safely parked on the side of the road for testing).

This is funny! I think when they start school would be an appropriate time. Not too soon, not too late.

Probably find a mansion in the countryside with a wine cellar and a library. Live the rest of my days there.

In our company, we started using a monthly timesheet system that really simplified everything. By tracking hours worked on a monthly basis, it’s easier to manage payroll, and keep an eye on project budgets. I found a printable PDF monthly timesheet template to use, you can check it out and see if it'll work for you. It let us see where time is being spent and where adjustments are needed. This has reduced the stress of last-minute calculations and makes it clear when projects are going off track. The timesheets will also help you with performance management, as it’s easy to see who’s excelling and who might need . Overall, it saves time and keeps everything organized.

I'm looking for a good ChatGPT add-on for Google Sheets. I need something that can help with data analysis and ideally generate tables with insights. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Great post! You've outlined the malware removal process very clearly. I completely agree that monitoring and archiving a website is crucial for maintaining security and integrity. As a developer, I use this screenshot API to help with this. By automating regular snapshots of my site, I can visually monitor changes and spot any unusual modifications immediately.

The screenshot API captures the current state of the site, making it easy to compare with previous versions. This way, if malware defaces the site or adds unauthorized content, I can quickly identify the changes and take action. Additionally, archiving these snapshots helps maintain a historical record, which is invaluable for tracking the timeline of any issues and ensuring that my site remains consistent and secure.

Regular monitoring, combined with the proactive measures you mentioned, like updating software and using security plugins, forms a robust defense against malware threats. Thanks for sharing!

I started using WhatsApp to share my digital business card with my network (see how it works here). It's super easy to reach out to potential clients without starting from scratch. I simply share my details and a link to my digital business card, which helps boost high-ticket sales.

I post my digital business card in WhatsApp groups and my status with a secure link or QR code, especially after updates like new launches or offers. So even my international s can easily access my info, breaking down geographical barriers.

After meetings or chats, I always follow up by sending my digital business card. It's a subtle way to remind prospects to save my details without being too pushy. The best part is, I can customize it to include anything from a product catalog to social media profiles.

You can test it out, hope it'll work for you too.

You are on the right track. Apple Wallet Business Card is a digital business card stored and shared as an Apple Wallet . That's all. You simply open your Apple Wallet from your iPhone and share your card. With a couple of taps, recipients can add the card to their Apple Wallet and have access to your details. Basically, you can go completely digital with your networking efforts and avoid printing cards. I shared my digital business card this way many times. It really is as easy as it sounds. Of course, I share it via QR code or URL with Android s too. You don't have to choose; you can do it in different ways with the same card.

Having a good website is definitely the first step to running a successful business. You shared lots of good tips. And I couldn't agree more about the colors.

I used the same maker, so works for me, thank you! I am already half scheduled for January, so I have to do this as soon as possible. I am have a virtual background already, so it won't be a problem to adjust it this way. Great idea, thanks again!

So, I've recently created a digital business card that's proven quite handy. (Not to mention how good it feels that it's yet another thing I didn't have to print. Paper waste is completely out of hand!) Plus, the ease of updating details ensures my network is always in the loop with the latest information. It's become an indispensable tool in my professional toolkit. And, I have to add, it worked wonders at the last few conferences. Recent bonus: now part of my email signature! Thrilled with its impact, but looking to maximize its potential in virtual meetings. Any tips on making the most of it?

Hmmm makes you wonder...

I think this is a common (and very good) practice, it shows you appreciate loyalty and it's easy to implement. I spent some time researching this topic (best qr code generator for business) last year and I picked the first one listed here. Great reviews and works like a charm. The QR codes don't expire, it's easy to create and safe to use them - that's all I needed. We conducted a survey on the product we launched some months before that, so we really wanted a reliable generator and gladly we found one. There were more good options on that list but, you know, they weren't rated that well on G2. I mean, I would always go for 4.9/5 rather than 3/5 solution.

Toyota Corolla - easily the best car I've ever had.

Currently, we're using an electronic filing system software that we tailor and fine-tune to fit our daily needs and is Cloud-compatible (we utilize an office/work-from-home hybrid model, so the Cloud is quite important to us). The app helps us with invoicing, routing the new scans, editing PDFs, etc. Of course, we are always looking for complementary software, as onboarding new and getting them up to speed is not always smooth. So, thank you for sharing this, I'll definitely have a look!

I dare to say that Portfolio and Client Reviews part is crucial.

A degree in Psychology and Counseling is a great choice! I almost decided to choose this career path many years ago...

I generally recommend hiring a professional (an individual or a company) at first, to get things going. Over time, one can learn how to take care of most things, but I think it's a good idea to get some help at first.

I have to say, an AI-powered website personalization makes a big difference and significantly increases the chances of success, talking about D2C eCommerce but not only. So it's no wonder successful companies like Amazon and Expedia use this strategy to provide the best customer experience. Web personalization also helps improve conversion rates and build stronger relationships with customers, leading to increased customer satisfaction and loyalty.

The "Monitor and analyze" part is extremely important, it is the best way to see exactly what's working and how well. Consequently, you'll now what you need to adjust instead of continuing with the campaign that gives no results.

Great tips, thanks for sharing! Getting the right level of "engaging" can be tricky sometimes, in my opinion. You don't want to overdo it but you also don't want your text to be sort of neutral and flat. Takes some practice and reading tips of this type to get it right over time.

"Memory" wasn't bad at all, I don't know why it only has 5.7 on IMDb. Anyway, I liked it.

Fully switched two months ago and it was absolutely worth it. Shared my DBC in every video conference I've had since then and added it to my email signature. I also have it as an Apple Wallet Business Card - an option I discovered recently. I'd say go for it.
