Business card inquiry
Turn your business card into an AI inquiry point
A business card should not stop at a phone number. Add a QR code that lets the person ask simple follow-up questions, watch a short proof video when useful, and leave a short inquiry form when they are ready to be contacted.

Point / Summary
A card scan should answer before it asks for contact details.
Most people do not submit a form the moment they receive a card. They first wonder whether you handle their type of request, what the starting price looks like, where you work, whether you have proof, or how fast you can respond. RealLink AI lets them ask those light questions first, then submit a short inquiry when the timing feels right.
Where it fits
Good for people who sell through trust, not impulse.
Use this for consultants, agents, clinics, coaches, designers, local services, professional services, B2B sales reps, showroom staff, and solo founders. It works best when a buyer needs a few answers before they are comfortable sending a request.
Professional services
Explain scope, intake process, location, and what information to prepare.
Sales representatives
Answer product fit, catalog, meeting, pricing range, and next-step questions.
Freelancers and creators
Show portfolio context, service packages, booking rules, and sample work links.
Local businesses
Collect visit requests, estimates, service area questions, and contact preferences.
Before vs after
From passive contact info to a useful inquiry flow
- Before: the card only says who you are.
- After: the card answers the buyer's first question.
- Before: the buyer must decide whether to call without context.
- After: the buyer can ask, see proof, and submit a clear request.
What people ask
Questions that usually come before the form
- Do you work with businesses like mine?
- What does the first consultation include?
- What is the starting price or typical range?
- Can I see examples or a short video?
- What information should I send for a quote?
- How soon can someone contact me?
Flow
How the inquiry flow works
The scan starts with a question, not a demand for personal information. The form appears as the natural next step after the visitor understands fit.
The person scans your card QR or opens the public AI link.
They ask about service fit, examples, pricing range, or availability rules.
The AI answers from your approved training text and official links.
The inquiry form collects name, contact method, request type, timing, and notes.
You see the inquiry with the question context in your dashboard.
Smart inquiry button
Show the form at the right time
Tell RealLink AI what the inquiry form is for, such as a quote, sample, design request, order question, or another purpose that fits the business.
When a visitor asks about that need, the AI shows an inquiry button. The form opens only after the visitor chooses the button, so unrelated conversations continue without interruption.

Hi. I can answer questions about NovaPoint Advisory: service scope, typical project size, examples, and how to send a short inquiry.
I met you at the expo. Do you help early-stage exporters?
Yes. NovaPoint usually helps small exporters organize buyer follow-up, product documents, and first sales materials. For a quick overview, you can watch the short introduction video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7AZpQqQOty0
Can I ask for a follow-up?
Yes. Please leave your name, company, email, country, product category, and the question you want to discuss. The owner will review it with your earlier question so the reply starts with context.
Form setup
What should the inquiry form collect?
Keep it short. The form should collect enough context for a good reply, not everything a salesperson might eventually need.
Name and contact
Name, email, phone, or preferred contact channel.
Request type
Consultation, quote, booking, demo, partnership, support, or other.
Useful context
Company, location, timeline, product interest, service area, or budget range when appropriate.
Consent
Show a short personal-information consent notice before collecting contact details.
Analytics
What can you learn from card scans?
Every question can reveal what the card, pitch, or website failed to explain. This is useful even when the visitor does not submit the form.
High-intent topics
Booking, quote, price, demo, catalog, and contact questions often show stronger intent.
Trust gaps
Questions about proof, examples, guarantees, or process show where buyers need confidence.
Language demand
International contacts can ask in their own language when multilingual support is enabled.
Better cards
Repeated questions can guide the next card design, QR label, and sales one-liner.
FAQ
Questions about business card inquiry forms
Does this replace a CRM?

Usually no. Let visitors ask simple questions first, then show the inquiry form as the next step when they want contact.
Can answers include video?
Yes. If a YouTube or TikTok link helps explain the offer, the answer bubble can include it.
What should go to a person?
Final quotes, contracts, legal or regulated advice, sensitive details, and custom commitments should go to a person.
