QR Codes what are you doing with them

QR code is really very Good and Latest form of presenting data, I have created many QR code for my web site, by this i can also send private msg, without any notification.

Here you go mate. Posted this one yesterday for Warriors (no aff).

Would it be possible for a qr code to txt an opt-in to a sms marketing program (i.e. "text fred to 9965")?

I asked this same question about a week ago, and I decided to have the QR code on my business cards go to a special page on my mobile site (bizcard.html), not my desktop site. That way, I never have to change the QR code, but I can change the landing page it points to at any time. The best suggestion I heard when I asked about a week ago was to put an introductory "Nice to meet you" video on the landing page (great suggestion Adam!)

This method also gives you the benefit of putting Google Analytics on the landing page for tracking purposes.

As already mentioned, you can have it send an SMS to a short code.

You can encode it with contact information, like a vcard, that will allow the person who scanned the code to add your information directly into their contacts.

Also, make sure you have instructions with the code so we can start educating people on what to do with them. I have the following next to the code on the back of my card:

1. Download a QR Scanner App.
2. Scan the code.
3. Discover cool stuff.

Nick if ur interested in doing a joint venture marketing here in vegas let me know =) i got some good ideas and need a partner.

There's so many things you can do with them. Great for printing on promotional items to give away to your customers or at trade shows or seminars.

Print them on
promotional items/giveaways
stress balls
coasters
calendars
refrigerator magnets
mouse pads
key chains
letterhead/business cards
brochures
ads

IHOP has a good example of QR codes and text messaging in action. Think I will eat breakfast there soon and take a picture for marketing purposes. Can't seem to find a good one online.

QR codes can be cool if you leave nothing but the code and something interesting to spark some curiosity. People will try it because they simply want to know.

I am giving them to businesses as a way to break the ice, hopefully I will be able help them with their mobile marketing. It's really working I have signed up several business using this system.

I wanted to throw out a big thanks to Mary....I have downloaded her blueprint and am impressed. Seems to me at least that she really knows her stuff.

I have a 2 Offline CPA Project's working that include a different spin on things. I am utilizing mobile and Q/R codes with both. If they are successful I will be turning them both into WSO's.

How about this one...

You set up the QR code to "like" your client's Facebook Fanpage. Then they get a coupon on their screen immediately following... like say a Deli.

"Like" us on Facebook now and get a free drink today!"

Customer scans the QR code, which like's your client's page

And the customer gets a coupon on their phone to show the cashier to get their free drink.

This allows your client to message them through Facebook later - "Check out our Friday Special - Clam Chowder for $2 Bucks" or whatever...
