"Lean Startup" techniques are a way for a company to launch products in the marketplace that are highly optimized for success, without wasting time and money on the wrong customers, wrong features, and ineffective activities.  Lean Startup techniques focus on identifying exactly who the customer is, what they want, and getting the right product features to them as quickly as possible, by conducting intensive customer interviews, running experiments, and tweaking the product/service features and functionality to laser-focus on the needs of the marketplace.  Like the concept of Lean Manufacturing, the goal is to cut cycle time and reduce waste.   Lean Startup techniques prevent time wasted on features that customers don't want, or selling products to people who don't want or need them.

We've adopted the Lean principles to develop our next round of products.  Not only that, we're going to develop them in a fashion such that not only are our products competitive, but our process of developing the products is world-class and competitive as well.  Our next round of product development starts June 30, kicked off at the Lean Startup Challenge Bootcamp.  Wish us well as we go head to head with our peers, proving not just that our product is "better", but that our process of getting it there is "The Best".  We'll keep you posted as we progress in this 14 week challenge and as our new products roll out the door.

Join the Mobile Revolution

A QR code linking to a mobile-optimized website is the ticket to promoting your small business.

QR codes can be printed on flyers, business cards, posters, stickers,...practically anything.

When scanned, the codes can link the user to a website, but more importantly they should link to a mobile-friendly website.

A mobile friendly website is one that has been optimized for viewing on a mobile or handheld device, like a cell phone.  Regular desktop websites are often hard to view and navigate on a cell phone.  A mobile-optimized site has been specifically designed to enhance the interactive mobile experience.

!! Try qrNotes for FREE !!

To help you join the mobile revolution, we're offering a few select small businesses the opportunity to test our mobile site generation service, for free!  the qrNotes system allows you to create a simple mobile website with a picture or logo, description of your product or service, and a custom link to your desktop site or facebook page.  You can add your contact information, phone number or anything else that you can fit in a couple of paragraphs.  In addition to the mobile page, you get a custom QR code (download the artwork) to print or display wherever you'd like.

Track the Results

As your customers and prospects view your mobile site, qrNotes counts the scans of your code, as well as the visits to your mobile page.  Viewing these statistics allows you to measure the performance of your site, and gage the effectiveness of where you place your qrcodes.

We're offering the service free on a limited basis, to test our system functionality and make sure it scales before we allow access to millions of users.  There's no obligation to be an early adopter, but sign up now before all the free qrNotes are gone.
