5. Resize your Flowcode 

  • Click and hold your uploaded Flowcode image > grab a blue square from the border of your image > hold OPTION to keep proportions locked > drag inward or outward to resize
  • Tip: The code should take up about ½ of the width of the page to ensure that it will scan and print well.

6. Add Call To Action Text 

  • Add a brief explanation of why someone should scan your code and specifically explain where the code will take them online. Adding CTAs DOUBLES scan counts.
