Share the catalogue. Keep the lead.
Give every catalogue PDF a QR code. Share it on WhatsApp or frame it in your showroom — and everyone who downloads it leaves you a name and a number.
Every catalogue you own is also a PDF nobody can track
Every hard-copy catalogue in your showroom also exists as a PDF.
They go out constantly. Somebody asks, somebody forwards it, and nothing is recorded. You do not know who has it, when they got it, or whether they opened it once.
And the printed ones cost real money.

You do not know who has it, when they got it, or whether they opened it.
A thousand copies of something the brand revises the month after they arrive.
Upload it once
Name the catalogue, upload the PDF, and it gets its own QR code.
Name it brand plus category — [brand] Kitchen Systems, [brand] Sliding Hardware — because in eighteen months you will have forty of them and you will want to find one quickly.
One QR, everywhere you already share
The QR works anywhere you can put an image or a link:
On WhatsApp — , as artwork
By email
Printed and framed in the showroom — at the counter, beside the display, at the entrance
On a visiting card, a hoarding, your stall at an exhibition
The framed one is the quiet winner. It works when nobody is free to talk. It works when the shop is full on a Saturday.
It works after you have closed, when somebody is standing outside looking through the glass.
A name and a number, every time
The person scanning opens his camera and points it at the code.
No app, nothing to install.
Anyone asking for a catalogue is still deciding. That is what a catalogue request is. Handing over a printed brochure feels like the end of a conversation — he says thank you and walks out, and you never find out what happened.
This makes it the beginning of one.
The catalogue is fine. The sharing is the problem.
This does not replace your catalogues.
Your brands produce good ones, your customers want them, and there is no reason to build your own version of something that already exists.
The QR does not change. The code framed at your counter and the code already saved on a customer's phone both open the current file — not the one you uploaded last year.
Your brands' catalogues — they are good, your customers want them
The uncontrolled sharing — the forwarding, the sending, none of which you can see
Paying to print — upload the new edition in place of the old one
The code never changes — the one framed at your counter opens the current file
Scan this code and see it work on you
Scan it and you will be asked for your name and number
That is the feature, working on you. You get the SaleShade product overview, and you know exactly what your customer sees when he scans one of yours.
Or see it on your own catalogues.
