QR codes for small business: table, packaging, shopfront

A customer is standing at your counter and wants your menu. You point at... a faded printed sheet? An old board? The gap between someone right in front of you and reaching you online is wider than it should be.

A QR code closes it. Anyone with a phone camera scans it and lands on your link, with your menu, hours and contact ready. Put it on cafe tables, takeaway packaging, your shopfront for after-hours browsing, and flyers. Point it at your link-in-bio page (not a single PDF) so customers get everything, and add a short line: "Scan for menu and hours." Update the destination any time, the printed code stays the same.

The takeaway: let your tables, bags and window bring customers online with one scan.
