How mobile marketing with QR codes works

When a customer scans a QR code, they will be taken to your special mobile-optimized website which allows them to get more details, including viewing product videos and detailed product features, specifications and recommended accessories and uses. Customers can also sign up on your special mobile site using their phones, to join your lists and be informed of specials, coupons and new products. They can even receive instant savings through email coupons delivered automatically by your mobile site!  Each product can have its own QR code and mini-site enabling you to track customer preferences and product popularity.

Who else uses this marketing tactic?

Retailers, bankers and other marketers are increasingly taking advantage of this relatively low cost marketing tool.  Walmart, Target, Macy's and Starbucks are already in on the QR Code wave by offering coupons and membership benefits with a simple scan of the code. Airlines are using QR codes instead of tickets for check-in and consumer product companies are placing QR codes on their products to illustrates uses, nutritional information, provide recipes, ho-to videos etc.

• Tracking: QR codes can measure how many people are using the code and at what time. By having easily traceable analytics, firms can view results and know if their QR code campaign is successful. If using personalized QR codes, this enhances the value of the insight to the household or customer/prospect level.

Will customers use this?

Yes! Consumers are responding in droves.  It makes your brand "sticky". According to a February survey of U.S. smartphone users by MGH, a Baltimore social-media marketing company, 65% of responders had remembered seeing a code with half scanning the code.  Of those, 53% said they used the code to get a coupon or discount while 52% used the code to get additional information.

When asked why would they be interested in using a QR code in the future, 87% mentioned the desire to get a coupon or discount while more than 60% would use the tool to access more information. Possibly due to the newness of the marketing tool, 72% said they would be more likely to remember an advertisement with a QR code.

In fact, the number of consumers who added QR scanning capabilities to their devices during the first quarter of this year increased an impressive 938% from the same period a year ago. The vast majority (89%) of QR code scans resulted in the receipt of information about a product or service, although consumers are slowly catching on to using QR codes to make mobile payments, too.

Mobio's report, found that women dominate QR code scanning - 68% vs 32% - most likely because they hold the household budget purse-strings and are more likely to take advantage of marketing devices that promise discounts and money-saving tips.

Almost three-quarters (71%) of QR code scanners are aged between 25 and 54, the largest segment being in the 35-44 year old range. However, Mobio's data shows significant growth in use among the 55+ age group which jumped from 11% in December 2010 to 13% today.

Why is mobile hosting more expensive than regular website hosting?

To ensure your site looks great on all the different devices and models out there, we need to use special servers -  We do this by identifying every device that calls on your mobile URL, and then displaying the correct version of your mobile site for that particular mobile device and browser. The only way we can do this is, of course, by hosting the site.
