You built the card. Now put it where people already look — or it stays a bookmark that never earns a view.
This is a placement checklist: email, social, events, and print. No fluff.
Email signature
Every email is a passive intro: name, role, one line of proof, then View my card or Save my contact.
Keep it tight. Skip five social icons unless you truly maintain all of them.
Events and in-person moments
Your card should be ready in under five seconds.
- Save the QR to Photos
- Practice opening the link before the room is loud
- Text the link while you are still standing together
Speakers: put the QR on your closing slide. Decks get shared after the room empties — the code keeps working.
Offline signage and print
Table tents, open-house signs, vehicle magnets, invoice footers — passive traffic becomes views.
Use a clear CTA: Scan to save my contact beats a lonely black square.
Test distance and lighting before you print. A code that only scans from six inches fails on a storefront window.
Pair print with a light form on the card so late scanners still show up in analytics.
What to prioritize first
- Email signature
- Phone-ready QR or link for events
Add signage and campaign links after those three are live.
