I have lots other QR codes also stored on my phone, my contact info, great contractors, even a referral list for other home inspectors.
If you are a Realtor, you might have a QR code for your website, listings you
have or the code for a great home inspector! (I can send it to you too!)
Another tip, the more complicated the link, the more complex the QR-code is. Look at these 2 samples
They both work, but you have to be closer to the one on the left.

Watch this video to learn more about using QR codes.
Some Background From Wikipedia
QR codes are used in both commercial tracking applications and convenience-oriented applications aimed at mobile phone users. QR codes can be used to display text to the user, to add a vCard contact to the user's device, to open a URI or to compose an email or text message. Users can also generate and print their own QR codes for others to scan and use by visiting one of several free QR code generating sites
QR codes storing addresses and
URLs may appear in
magazines, on signs, buses, business cards, or on just about any object
about which users might need information. Users with a camera phone
equipped with the correct reader application can scan the image of the
QR Code to display text, contact information, connect to a wireless
network, or open a web page in the phone's browser.
Google's mobile Android operating system supports the use of QR codes
by natively including the barcode scanner (ZXing) on some models, and
the browser supports URI redirection, which allows QR Codes to send
metadata to existing applications on the device. Nokia's Symbian
operating system is also provided with a barcode scanner, which is able
to read QR
codes, while mbarcode is a QR code reader for the Maemo
operating
system. In the Apple iOS, a QR code reader is not natively included,
but over 50 free Apps are available with reader and metadata browser
URI redirection capability.
