QR Code

What is this funny little square box?
It's called a QR code, short for a "Quick Response" link that is used with a camera equipped mobile phone.  Your camera phone using this QR code connects you directly with a website, text, or contact information.  All you have to do is take a picture of it, your phone scans it, and then connects you instantly.


QR Codes are an exciting way to reach your customers.  They are another innovative way the world has become interconnected.  Join the excitement and incorporate QR Codes into your business offerings today.  The possibilities are endless!
 
Here are some ways Young's Printing can help you take advantage of QR codes in your business:


    • Business Cards/Collateral - Include QR codes on your business cards or collateral so that your customers can easily access your business information, map your location, and store your business information on their phone or computer.
    •  Sales flyers -Use QR codes on sales flyers to lead consumers to special coupons.
    •  Posters - A QR code on a poster can lead consumers to a video preview, photo slide show, audio and/or text.
    •   Real Estate Signs -A QR Code on a Real Estate sign in front of a house can lead your potential customer to a site providing additional property information on that house and put them in direct contact with the Agent.
    • Magazine ads - Design a magazine ad that contains a QR Code for your catalog items.  Your customer can scan the QR code from the magazine advertisement with their smart phone and be instantly connected to your on-line site to purchase that particular item.
      • Signs - Whether it is in a building on a street or trail, signs with QR codes can provide your customers with location information, or perhaps enable them to a self-guided tour.
      • Promotional Items - QR codes have been used on t-shirts and other products to advertise an event.  Scan the link and you will be directed to a url that provides you with information on that upcoming event.

          1. Businesses can also use QR codes as coupon. In just a quick scan of the code, customers can instantly have a coupon that they can use whenever they want. It is less hassle because your business doesn’t need to print a paper coupon and give it away to your customers. It saves you money on printing of the coupon.
