Finally, A Use for QR Codes I Can Get Behind
Posted on Jun 6, 2011 by Valerie Touchstone
Okay, so I’ll admit I thought QR codes were simply a gimmick. A flash in the proverbial pan of ever-changing marketing tools. Until today.
I read a discussion on Linked In today, titled “Are Business Cards Dead?” The topic caught my attention so I took a few minutes to read a bit. Basic reasons for “yes” or “no” ensued, along with one good point of how a super cool card, by way of shape or message, can hang around in someone’s purse or wallet for a long time.
Then… the mention of someone using a QR code on the back of their card! The code took the user to a form on a website where an email/name/phone number could be entered; this particular commentator offered a free white paper in exchange for giving up the info. I’m not even sure, if explained as an online business card system, a freebie is needed, but I guess it doesn’t hurt.
At any rate, I think this is a great way to give a traditional item a modern twist. *
