Hello Everyone,
I hope this finds you all enjoying your summer and I hope to see many of you at conference.
I was discussing QR codes with my roommate last night as he works for a PR/Advertising company and I got to thinking about the possibility of adding QR codes to ticket templates so that we have a QR code on any printed ticket that goes out the door.
I am wondering if any of you have tossed around this idea and concurrently, am wondering if the BOCA printers have the print capabilities of handling QR codes that would be readable by a smartphone.
Sorry if you get two of these but I thought I'd also post this in the Marketing Forum as well. Any, thoughts, ideas or just a big discussion about this new and innovative marketing tool would be awesome.
Best,
Christopher Cuhel, Patron Services Manager, First Stage - Milwaukee
We have started doing them fairly often on outdoor and print ads, and typically direct to a landing page that contains a video – either a :30 commercial, or some other kind of content. We don’t ever direct to the general site. It’s still a bit early to report any key findings, but that’s the scoop from Roundabout.
Thanks,
T

We are about to start adding them to our posters and brochures. Our plan is to drive people to web pages with special discounts and tracking codes applied. We also plan on using them to point to pages that will give added value to what is marketed on the poster/brochure with more background info/videos/archival content. We don't want to take people to pages that just repeat the same content that is already on the posters/brochures. We look at it as providing added value.
