Quick preview of our tiny URLs and QR Code Lead Generator

Hey! This is John from SparkLaunch and I wanted to share a little of what we're up to.
We bought a new domain, spln.ch, to use for making tiny URLs to share our pitch decks and landing pages a little more easily.
I'm making a QR code lead capture tool as a use case for the tiny URL and to add functionality at the same time.
I've got a lot of improvements to make it mobile friendly and I also made the silly mistake of not making the tiny URLs... tiny. I'll change it up to be something like 6-8 random characters to keep it tiny-ish.
Have a great rest of your day and let us know what you're building too!
