Marketing in the 21st century is all about looking at trends and being ahead of the curve. One of the newest trends is QR (Quick Response) barcodes.

QR codes can be decoded by most camera equipped mobile phones. They can be effectively embedded in magazines, in-store graphics, signage, business cards or any application where additional information is required. By scanning the code, a user is directed to any website, phone number, SMS text messaging, text description etc. without having to type or search for the correct link.

The QR code in the upper right corner happens to direct people to our main web page. For those of you who have occasion to visit our shop in person you may notice that we have been designated a “Favorite Place” on Google Maps, and have a decal in our front window with a QR code on it. Scan it next time you visit to see where it takes you.

The slideshow below showcases various examples of how QR codes might be used. If you have any questions about how to utilize QR codes for your own marketing or promotion efforts, please contact your sales representative for more information.
