QR Codes – keeping your eye on the prize

/ The Right Product for the Job / By

I just recently was reading a blog post from one of my supplier’s on QR Codes and how to be more creative in their design.

While I applaud their creativity, it made me stop and think, what is the end objective of using QR (Quick Response) Codes  to drive people towards a mobile campaign?

The goal is developing an easy point of entry.   Enabling the end user to quickly and effectively gain entry to your portal to learn more about whatever you are trying to show them and enable instant interaction to your call to action.

With this in mind, design is a key factor.  Yes, esthetics are wonderful, but if the code is not readily scanable by the majority of devices, 98% of the time or greater, your marketing efforts have missed their mark.   Think of the QR Code as a magical key that opens the door for your customers to come in and buy your goods.   If the key doesn’t work, or the door is jammed, the client will go look for another door and spend money with someone else.   And while I have your attention, if the QR Code works and points people to a website that is not specifically purposed for mobile devices, people will be just as frustrated and move on just as quickly.

In short, technology is wonderful. . . when it works and is reliable.   Testing is the key to success.

The SILVER option is designed for companies on a limited budget or who would like to try the power of the Communicate Your Why program before committing.

It provides you with a reasonable amount of shareable content and access to our network. However, for most companies, this may not provide a full year's worth of marketing materials. If you purchase a SILVER package and decide to upgrade within 30 days of the airing of your episode, we will credit 90% of the SILVER package towards either a GOLD or PLATINUM package.

Our expectation is that we will release your episode within 30 days of the recording date.

The GOLD option is a basic yearly marketing package.

Optimally, you would release an episode quarterly and use the content that accompanies it to update your marketing on a quarterly basis. It is literally four times the amount of marketing materials as the SILVER option and allows you to not only tell your story but create a case studies with clients or talk about specific ways you add value to your clientele in a non-sales way. We would suggest that you have us interview other employees, suppliers, strategic partners and/or clients with additional episodes in order to add additional value and tell a richer and a more robust version of your brand story.

Our expectation is that we will release your episodes quarterly.

The PLATINUM option is designed as a monthly marketing package

It gives you the content you desire to stay top of mind with your clients and prospects, talk about ongoing developments and tell a more robust story.
