Quantity: To get the best per-unit price, we recommend ordering all signs at once. If you’re unsure about how many signs to order, contact our mobilizing team via support@greenparty.ca. Tip — If you’re running a small campaign, 250 signs is suitable.
How to create a custom QR code: Use this free online QR code generator. Simply enter the URL you want the code to link to (your candidate page here or your own website), then customize the colors (see below). Once you’re done, download the QR code in PNG.
