QR Codes - 2D Bar Codes

QR Codes and 2D Bar Codes are the savvy marketer’s dream.  With a QR code, smart phone users in Canada can simply scan the bar code and receive a promotional message back to their phone.

A QR code consists of black and white patterns on a square background.  When the smart phone user scans a QR code, he can receive a text message, watch a video, access a mobile web site, or sign up to participate in a promotion.  Virtually anything that can be placed on a web site can be accessed via a QR code.

One of the raps against QR codes, as opposed to text message marketing, has been that QR codes don’t provide branding.  That’s true with most mobile marketing companies, but not with Advanced Telecom Services.  Through our proprietary software, we can actually produce QR codes with the logo of the provider within it.
Some ways that QR codes are being used today include:

• Magazines and newspapers
• Additional advertising information
• Web site traffic
• Video link
• The back of your business card
• Outdoor advertisements
• Product tags and packages
• Convention name tags
• Menus
• Tickets
• Directions to your store
• Mobile coupons
• Downloading e-books

Savvy marketers all over Canada are using QR codes today to get their message to the consumer.  There are so many uses for QR codes that you are only limited by your imagination of how to best use them.

QR codes are just one of the many elements for Advanced Telecom Services to provide a one-stop mobile marketing shop for all things mobile.
