QR codes

QR (Quick Response) Codes are 2D scannable barcodes that direct users to a website or to take a specific course of action. The QR Code was first invented in 1994 by the Denso Wave company to track their manufacturing process for vehicles. 

Scanning QR Codes does not require downloading an additional app. Marketers and brands intrigued by running proximity marketing campaigns without an app can turn to QR Codes.

At ScanMySign.com we use QR codes to guide customers to social media sites where they can like or follow their favorite businesses. Customers are more likely to follow your social media pages than to join an e-mail list. A QR code sign makes it easy for people to quickly pull out their phones and scan, leading them to follow your pages.

We also make it possible to use QR codes to send customers to active online marketing pages. Dynamic online marketing pages allow you to own one sign and use it for current promotions or information. Use our signs to send people to promotional video pages. All they need to do is scan your sign and have it direct them to a video promotion page.

QR codes became popular with everyday users in 2020 and are now common for people to use. Most smartphones now have QR codes automatically integrated into them.
