If you are about to launch a new mobile/QR code campaign there are
several things you should consider. Please read the following tips in
regards the general QR codes usage and user education on the technology.
Use
the QR Codes as a bridge between the traditional print media and the
online channels. Incorporate QR codes whenever there is some additional
content or actions that the users can perform online. The combined
online and offline consumer experience and exposure to content should be
considered from the very beginning.
It is recommended in
countries with less usage of QR Codes as part of a campaign to text a
shortcode to get a free scanner app for your mobile phone.
Either
above or below the QR Code for print campaigns consideration should be
taken and basic instructions added to the QR Code. Scan the Code to
enter out Free competition as one example.
Large Icons can also be added which is common in Europe to Scan with your smartphone accompanied by Android / iPhone icons.
For
print advertisements is is highly recommended to do a print run to
ensure the campaign scans and works as according to the specification.
Make
sure all pages are mobilized to the leading content. In general the QR
codes should not lead to content that is not optimized for mobile
desives.
Campaigns in subways and underground transport areas
should be avoided unless there is wifi as the scan will work but there
will be no GSM coverage to load the mobile site and the campaign will
prove pointless.
Make sure when a customer scans the QR Code
there has to be value behind the scan. There has to be a necessity for
that person to scan the QR Code, whether it be providing entry to a
competition or gaining a trailer of a new movie that is just about to
become available.
