Benefits of incorporating a QR codes on displays

Whether on your storefront, floor stand, website pop-up, or trade show signage, QR codes are an excellent way to connect people to your online content. With the widespread use of smartphones, it’s important to provide quick access to a richer digital experience. QR codes make it easy to share information, keep customers engaged with your products, and encourage them to share with others.

Maximize the impact of your marketing campaigns +

A bold, well-designed sign can help your business stand out and attract new customers. Adding a QR code is an easy and affordable way to strengthen your marketing. With just one scan, people can visit your website, follow your social media, view promotions, check store hours, or get directions to your location. QR codes are a smart way to improve communication with your customers. For example, a link listing QR code can connect people to all your social media profiles in one place, allowing them to choose where to follow you. A video QR code can be added to displays to share behind-the-scenes footage, show how your products are made, or invite people to listen to your latest podcast. QR codes can also boost sales. They not only bring visitors to your online platforms but also encourage purchases. A coupon QR code can offer exclusive discounts, while a dynamic URL QR code provides valuable analytics to track campaign performance and make updates whenever needed.

Improve storytelling +

People often trust recommendations from family and friends more than advertisements. That’s why building a genuine connection with your audience is essential. While statistics and numbers help measure a campaign’s success, they don’t tell the full story. To truly connect, you need to offer a more engaging experience. An image gallery QR code can show how your product is made, while a video QR code can share stories from your team or satisfied customers. A link listing QR code can highlight your support for a social cause, helping people understand what your brand represents.

Track effectiveness of your marketing campaign +

Our dynamic QR codes provide a powerful way to monitor how your codes are used, helping you identify what’s working and what’s not in your campaign. They collect data such as how often each code is scanned, where and when it happens, and which devices and operating systems were used. This keeps you informed about your QR code’s performance so you can make smart adjustments whenever needed.
