DYNAMIC QR CODES A QUICK GUIDE TO HOW THEY CAN BE USED




The Benefits of Using QR Codes on Flyers There is this idea that the flyer was thrown away in digital marketing’s trash can and the lid is about to be sealed shut. But how wrong this is. Easy and affordable to produce, the flyer is able to reach a wider audience so that when it comes to promotional marketing, it is its kingpin. The best player on your team who, if used right, can bowl you a strike more often than not. By adding a QR Code, you can optimize your marketing strategy so the right people view your ad at the right time and in the right place. A QR Code will also help you promote special offers, services or products by expanding your campaign to your online platforms and help people reach your social media pages. QR Codes on flyers: The traditional marketing solution By combining traditional and digital marketing in what Judith Moncrieff coined in the 90s as traditional, according to Techopedia, you can increase your engagement and interaction with your audience. Target your offline audience with a well-designed flyer and retarget by leading them with a well-placed QR Code to your online networking platforms, which will help you earn people’s attention, build up your network and expand your social media community. By using a Dynamic QR Code, you can capture and measure detailed information on when, where and with what device your flyer’s QR Code was scanned each time. This allows you to track your marketing efforts with ease, and make changes to your strategy accordingly, like which location was most effective for your flyer distribution. Knowing who and where your audience is can not only help you optimize your flyer distribution and effectiveness but also increase your brand awareness.

See QR Codes on Brochures in Action Still unsure a QR Code on a brochure will make a difference? See them in action by reading a few fictional narratives based on real-life institutions and organizations that benefit from including QR Codes when organizing their informational campaign. Educational Institutions Glasmont Academy is a fictional school for the arts that wanted to convince prospective students of the benefits of enrolling at their academy. With a limited budget, they decided to reuse last year’s brochures in a new way. By adding a Video QR Code which linked to a video playlist of alumni and current student testimonials, as well as to teachers introducing their respective creative programs, they were able to affordably revamp their higher-ed marketing. Home Repair and Maintenance Though they had a good influx of work, Happy House Crew wanted to make it easier for future clients to schedule and book their services. With the help of a brochure, which listed all their home repair and maintenance offers, and our App Store QR Code, they linked to their all-in-one calendar app. Potential clients were able to book whichever service they needed and choose at their own discretion which open date suited them best. Our App QR Code is designed to promote apps across Apple App Store, Google Play Store, and Amazon Appstore, so Happy House Crew did not need to worry about which smartphone would be used to scan.


Healthcare and Doctors Dr. Andrew Webber wanted to offer his patients more information about dental procedures and hygiene at his clinic. He used our PDF QR Code on his existing brochures to expand on its listed information by linking to an e-brochure with more details about the different services his team had to offer. And whenever they need to add anything, like their Do’s and Don’ts list for first tooth extraction, they just uploaded a new document without having to reprint or generate a new QR Code. Restaurants Southern Restaurant, our favorite fictional eatery, love mixing things up by launching a new seasonal menu every year for spring and fall. However, menu reprinting costs and heightened concerns about their carbon footprint on the environment convinced Southern Restaurants that QR Codes were they way to go. By reusing their standard menu brochures, they printed a Image Gallery QR Code on the cover, encouraging their customers to scan it in order to view pictures of their new seasonal dishes. Neat, right? Gym and Wellness Studios Personal trainer extraordinaire at Studio Gym hosts a health and wellness podcast where she gives tips and tricks on nutrition, training and how to get any level of desired muscle mass. So Studio Gym decided to print an MP3 QR Code next to her name and classes on all their brochures, in order to give people access to her brilliant, weekly advice. An optional download button makes it easy for customers to save the MP3 file to their device, or access the full podcast playlist on iTunes, Google Play Music, Amazon Music, and more.
