how to get a QR code? good idea?

Post by funsongs » Fri May 09, 2025 2:46 pm

Greetings from a non-techy.
Since it's about time to reorder business cards, I'm wondering about how to get a QR code
that will lead people directly to my YouTube channel... which is, for all intent & purpose, my social media site for
Funsongs Music productions. (I do NOT have a smartphone).

Good idea to have that on a business card?
Even with card-maker list vistaprint?
Cost?

In advance; thanks for any help.

I get my business cards from VistaPrint. They have an easy to use designer which supports putting a QR code to any URL on the card. Their support is very good as well.

Good luck!

WOW Casey - thanks!!
That was way easier than I expected. I needed to update the text info, too -
so did all that and got the QR-code to my YouTube channel URL.
Anxious for delivery - and to see if it really WORKS... :? :D 8-)

You can test it right on your computer screen. Just hold your smartphone camera up to the QR code on the screen.
