QR Codes (Quick Response)

• QR stands for Quick Response. A QR code is actually a 2D (two-dimensional) matrix barcode. QR codes were invented in Japan by Toyota almost two decades ago for the auto industry for keeping track of car parts inventory.

• A QR Code is simply a graphical image that stores information. A 2D barcode holds information in 2 dimensions and can hold a surprising amount of information, giving it greater flexibility for different uses.

• QR codes are read by software which scans them and then links to the information they contain and they are designed to allow content to be decoded at high speed, providing desired information/content.

How Do QR Codes Work?

Step 1: Go to your phone's app store. Step 2: Search on your app store for a "QR Code Reader". Step 3: Select a 4 or 5-star rated QR Code Reader. Step 4: Install the QR Code Reader (this make take 4 or 5

minutes). Step 5: Once the app is installed, go to your apps and click

on the QR Code Reader. Step 6: Find the QR Code you want to scan. Step 7: With the QR Code Reader open, make sure it is set to

"scan", and point your phone's camera towards the QR Code. Once the QR Code is in focus, the phone's camera will capture the image, and open the URL.

Are People Scanning QR Codes? Almost 16 million scans in Q2 of 2012 - 140% increase in scans from Q2 of 2011 to Q2 of 2012.

QR Codes are companies most used mobile component for ENGAGING customers.

Why Will Someone Scan my QR Code?

Give me a reason to scan

• A strong call-to-action must be printed with the QR Code.

• The #1 mistake business owners make when encouraging their customers to scan their QR Code, is that the QR Code is directed to a desktop website.

CREATE, ENGAGE & MEASURE

• QR Codes are a convenient way to deliver content.

• A scan must maintain a mobile experience.

• Make sure you TEST, TEST, TEST to ensure it works before printing.

Static vs. Dynamic QR Codes

• Static - Content of where the QR Code is directed and cannot be changed

• Dynamic - Print the QR Code once and change the content as often as required

What information could I offer when using QR Codes?

Measure for Effectiveness

No other form of media has been able to take print material and turn it into an interactive experience – bridging offline with online. As soon as you integrate a QR Code into your advertising, you are allowing people to engage with you and that is critical in all the “noise” today.

Mobile Videos

Video Considerations

• No flash

• Ensure your video is viewable on all devices

• Hosting – You Tube

• www.vid.ly

Text Message Marketing

• Text message marketing; same concept of email marketing • 90 minutes for the average person to respond to an email; whereas it takes 90 seconds for the average person to respond to a text message. (source CTIA.org). • Text message open rates are 90% in the first 3 minutes • Email open rates on average are 20% • 8x the response rate as compared to emails • Optin and optout – MMA • Simple-Instant-Timely-Relevant • Engagement

Content Delivery

• Build your email list; have customers opt-in to your email list via text message. (Great for converting people at live events.)

• Send links to videos with exclusive content . • Send audio clips directly in the text • Connect with conference attendees; announcing speaking

times and locations. • Poll your audience; get feedback on products or services. • Update fans on new posts, eBooks, and products. • Create contests to engage your audience and give away

cool prizes.

Mobile Optimized Websites Less is Better

• Desktop websites were not designed for smartphones!

• Mobile searchers are not surfing, they have a specific need, seen a print ad, trying to contact you, etc.

• Mobile sites need to be thumb friendly, easy to navigate, click to call, click to email, directions, hours of operation – no pinching and zooming – loads fast

• Same domain name

• Ensure that your mobile viewer can always get to your desktop site, if required

• Ensure the mobile site is developed and will work on all the 5000+ devices in existence and not just the iPhone

• Maintain branding and look feel of desktop

• Update easily

• Tablet considerations

Non-Mobile Sites Hurt Reputation

• 52% say that a bad mobile experience made them less likely to engage

• 48% said that if a site didn’t work well on a smartphone that the company did not care about their mobile users

• Want it now mentality

Questions to Ask Yourself

• Have you checked your analytics to see how many views are coming from a mobile device?

• Have you checked your bounce rate on those mobile views?

• What happens when you post your blog post on Social Media and it is being viewed on a smartphone?

• Missed opportunity?

Before 85% of sites are not mobile friendly
