QR
Codes are used in marketing to bridge offline media and online mobile media. Traditional
print and other media formats (i.e. internet, TV or video ads) can be used more
effectively by simply displaying a QR Code. In other words, you are no longer
limited by your ad space or time. You can turn a tiny print ad or sticker into
a mobile video, online shop and more.
"QR
Code Marketing" can refer to a strategy or specific plan that involves the
development and use of QR Codes and mobile content to accomplish certain goals,
such as to increase sales or brand awareness, or to support business and customers.
QR Codes are simply used to deploy or deliver the mobile content to the mobile
devices of intended users. Since the mobile content is the most important
and what the user will eventually interact with, "mobile marketing"
is probably a better term. Click
here too see examples of QR Codes and "mobile marketing".
