[00:00:24] Hey everybody! It's Tom here with episode 860 of Screw the Commute podcast. Today, we're going to talk about circular or round QR codes. The QR codes have made a resurgence from the old days, and we'll tell you about that.

[00:01:44] Okay, so basically I'm talking about a new format of QR codes that can be more pleasing looking. All of the other ones in the past have been square, so scan over and maybe others I don't know. I happen to use scan over C scan ova now have a round format, and you can still do all the fancy stuff that you want. Color, put your logo in it and everything, but it's now a more pleasing round format. So, you know, uh, should I waste the whole episode on just telling you that? Well, I just want to remind you of how the importance of them, because you can use QR codes in so many places. I mean, you can have them on your website, on a screen. You can have them in print, like on flyers, even billboards have them nowadays. I'd hate to see you wreck your car though. Trying to read one going down the road and on your vehicle. You can have them. You could get, uh, you know, either magnets or stickers for windows and all that, that for QR codes. And the reason I'll just mention this again, the reason they've made a resurgence is because when they first came out, you had to download and install a special app to read them. Now all modern smartphones read them right through your camera app so you don't have to do anything extra.

[00:03:15] And people are learning about this, and it's much easier for them to to look at your QR code and, and click, and it takes them right wherever you want them to go. And you can get analytics on them and all kinds of stuff. But I just wanted to alert you to the fact there's now circular ones that are really pretty looking. So check out, scan over. I think they have a 14 day free trial. I don't have any affiliate commission with them at all, but I just want to emphasize how important these are to you nowadays. And of course, the younger generation knows how to use them. So, uh, and I was I was at the doctor's office the other day, and I was a lady. Had to be in her 80s, was on her cell phone and I could see she was looking at a QR code. So. So it's something that could really help your business cost almost nothing to do and can get you a lot of publicity, especially if you have it on your vehicles. Uh, you know, even in parking lots. I've scanned QR codes on plumbers and, you know, all kinds of people. So. So check it out. Um, at, uh, you know, check out, scan over for their 14 day free trial, and you can download and make all you want for free and then not even sign up if you don't want to.

[00:04:29] So pretty cool deal there. So that's my story and I'm sticking to it. It's a short episode, but it's a thing that's important to your business that cost almost nothing to I mean, it can cost nothing to create because there's plenty of free services out there. Now. A lot of the free ones aren't going to have the circular ones at this point, but who cares? As long as you get using QR codes that will help your business. All right, that's my story.
