QR Codes are the easiest way to transform your analogue marketing into digital, and QR Codes can be the medium that connect your brand with mobile audiences out there. They represent a new communication channel that everyone can afford and they can be easily implemented alongside your current marketing activities. Their huge advantage is the low budget that is needed to enter into the space of mobile communication.
We live in times of mobile and social networks and information has never before been so available and so easily accessible. Everything is going mobile and you should consider how to prepare your future marketing strategy with mobile channels in mind.
We were blow away by the potential of QR Codes back in late 2009 when we first started using them. Initially we needed QR Codes just for connection to our mobile product, but we became so impressed by QR Code technology that we built our own QR Code generator and we put this generator online on September 15th 2010. Since then our story has developed and recently we launched a QR Code platform with amazing features and possibilities to use QR Codes in the highly competitive marketing world.
To bring our product to life we need to thank the many awesome BETA users for their support and all their QR ideas. A BIG thank you to you all, we love you!

Mobile apps
Connecting a mobile audience via QR Codes should include an optimized mobile web site. QR Codes offer a quick way to connect to your online information for people that are constantly on the move. The majority of them have now have a Smart phone and they don’t need to type a URL into the mobile browser which is a huge time saving and less error-prone way to access information. When they take the effort to take out their phone and scan the code they get all information loaded into their mobile phone browser. When the user has loaded the whole web page into the mobile phone browser they just don’t know what to do: scroll left-right or vertically to view all the content on that page, there is so much information that isn’t relevant and it takes too much bandwidth. At the end of the day this is not the most efficient way for someone to experience your brand, service or other information on a mobile phone. So, you need optimized content that is easily browsable on smart phones and that is exactly what we are providing.
Think mobile
Think how you would feel if someone gave you 100 books and magazines instead of only the publication you asked for. Using generic desktop web pages a QR Code campaign landing page is far from what smart phone users expect to find when scanning the code and in reality poor mobile experiences or connecting a QR Code to desktop web pages is still the Number One mistake made by QR Code advertisers.
Enhance mobile experience with mobile optimized landing web page
An effective landing page should engage potential customers in a positive way. Creating a branded optimized mobile web app that work across all phones and tablets can dramatically increase mobile experience and most importantly your bounce rate can be much more efficient.
Within our QR Code Platform you can integrate proper mobile experience and create mobile web apps that are cross devices/OS platform optimized.
You can enhance your mobile experience with rich mobile content, prize contest, portfolio and social channel integration and custom landing page that can change the way you market your real-world promotions in mobile space. Without a properly delivered message, you can’t expect that people will take any action!
