-        question: 'How large should a QR code be on a real estate sign for easy scanning from a car?',
-        answer: 'To be scannable from a vehicle parked at the curb (about 10-15 feet away), the QR code should be at least 4x4 inches (10x10 cm). Ensure there is high contrast, like a black code on a white background.'
-      },
-      {
-        question: 'What is the best destination for an open house QR code?',
-        answer: 'Instead of a static PDF flyer, link to a mobile-optimized digital property brochure or a lead-capture form. This allows you to collect the contact information of interested buyers instantly before they leave the property.'
-      },
-      {
-        question: 'Can a QR code automatically save my agent contact details to a buyer\\'s phone?',
-        answer: 'Yes. You can create a vCard QR code. When scanned, it prompts the buyer\\'s smartphone to instantly add your name, phone number, email, and photo directly to their contacts app.'
-      },
-      {
-        question: 'Will real estate QR codes work if there is no cell service at the property?',
-        answer: 'A standard URL QR code requires an internet connection to load the property page. If you are selling rural properties with no cell service, consider using an offline PDF QR code or a vCard QR code, which encode the data directly into the matrix.'
-      },
-      {
-        question: 'Can I track which neighborhoods generate the most interest?',
-        answer: 'Absolutely. If you use different dynamic QR codes for signs in different neighborhoods, your analytics dashboard will show you exactly which signs are getting scanned the most, helping you focus your marketing efforts.'

-        question: 'How do dynamic QR codes prevent disaster if our event schedule changes?',
-        answer: 'If a speaker cancels or a room changes after you\\'ve printed 5,000 attendee badges, a dynamic QR code saves the day. You simply update the digital schedule URL in your dashboard, and everyone\\'s printed badge instantly points to the new information.'
-      },
-      {
-        question: 'How do I generate unique QR codes for thousands of attendee badges?',

-      },
-      {
-        question: 'Can sponsors use QR codes to capture leads at their booths?',
-        answer: 'Yes, this is highly effective. Sponsors can display a QR code linking to a digital brochure or a lead capture form. When attendees scan it, their interest is registered, and sponsors can follow up directly after the conference.'
-      },
-      {
-        question: 'What is the most reliable way to display a digital event map?',

-      },
-      {
-        question: 'How can we increase session feedback rates using QR codes?',
-        answer: 'Place a large QR code on the exit doors or on the final presentation slide. Linking directly to a short, 3-question survey while the session is still fresh in their minds significantly boosts response rates compared to post-event emails.'
