Turn a QR Code into Customer Enquiries

Proferly Team · November 4, 2026

A QR code on your van, storefront, or flyer can turn a passer-by into a price request. Here is how the Proferly Badge captures that moment today.

The enquiry you never hear about

A lot of new business never starts with a phone call. Someone sees your van at a job site, walks past your storefront, or picks up your flyer. They are interested, but they are also busy, driving, or in the middle of something else.

So they think they will call later. By the evening, the moment has passed, and your name is forgotten. A phone call also feels like a commitment. Many people would rather ask for a price first, quietly, before they talk to anyone.

That is the gap a QR code closes. It turns a passing moment of interest into a request you can actually answer.

What a Proferly Badge QR code does

The Proferly Badge is a personal quote link and QR code. In plain terms, it is a simple request form that customers open by scanning the code or opening the link.

A customer describes what they need, attaches photos if useful, and requests a price from you without calling or sharing their phone number. It takes them less than a minute. If a job needs to be seen in person before pricing, you decide that too.

The Proferly Badge keeps collecting price requests from interested customers, even when you are busy on a job or it is late at night. The enquiry waits for you, instead of depending on you answering the phone at exactly the right moment.

Where to put your Proferly Badge

Put the Proferly Badge where people already notice your business:

  • On your vehicle, so neighbours at a job site can scan it on the spot
  • In your storefront window or at your counter, for walk-in interest
  • On flyers, business cards, and leave-behind cards after a job
  • On your website and in your social media profiles, using the link version of the Proferly Badge

Each spot does the same job. It gives a person who is already interested a quick, private way to ask for a price, right there and then.

What happens after someone scans

When a customer sends a request through your Proferly Badge, you get an email notification. You can then reply with your price.

The customer's phone number stays private until they choose a business. That privacy is often what makes someone willing to ask in the first place. They are not committing to a call, and they are not handing over their number to every business they contact.
