This post will be kept short and sweet. Since, you are probably busy struggling to keep track of all your marketing campaigns so you can succeed in business.
So I am guessing you are reading this because of any of the below:
If you answered yes to even just 1 of the above, then you are in the right place. Splitter HQ was formed to provide a solution to many marketing, CRM, E -commerce department’s problems. Communication.
Digital marketing is forever growing. This means targeting customers can be difficult.
Let me put this into perspective;
You have a mobile app on IOS and Android. Straight away that I going to be 2 URLs that you need to share to communicate your app. Splitter HQ found that this put customers off and sometimes the communication was confusing or looked plain awful and messy. So… What did we do? Very simply we created a Short URL that could detect the users device and then take them to the correct App Store base don their platform. Otherwise known as the Platform split. This means you can just share 1 URL instead of several.
A a result of this we saw that marketing the app was easier, communication improved and businesses saw a better ROI.
We then found that businesses wanted to do more. Digital Marketing departments wanted to target their customers base don location. So we created a Country, Region and City Split. This means you are able to have 1 URL for several cities- which then have their own unique destination. In this instance imagine you are a hotel. You have a branch in Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool and London. You could use 1 URL for them all, but it would then split off based on the users location. Yet again what did we see.. A higher ROI, easier for marketing departments to communicate and also we provided detailed analytics so departments could see the location, time, date of the users being active.
Now this is just a few of the features we offer. There are many more, but I said I wanted to keep it short and sweet. So sign up to our FREE trial here. Have a play around, learn the benefits we can give to you and relax. We take care of all the technical stuff and make it easy for you. Crikey.. your job is hard enough!

Many are saying QR code are dying or even dead. Yes, QR codes got off to a bad start, but so did some other ideas;
WD-40 has quite a remarkable story. In 1953, a fledgling company called Rocket Chemical Company and its staff of three set out to create a line of rust-prevention solvents and de-greasers for use in the aerospace industry, in a small lab in San Diego, California.
It took them 40 attempts to get the water displacing formula worked out. The original secret formula for WD-40®—which stands for Water Displacement perfected on the 40th try—is still in use today.
Nintendo is known as the gaming company that launched an era, but it certainly didn’t start out as a success. Nintendo’s first offering, the Famicom console, had to be recalled after only a few months. Atari’s failure in the mid-1980’s left the American video game market a mess, and the Nintendo NES barely sold when it was introduced in 1985. By the end of 1986, however, two little characters named Mario and Luigi had changed the history of American gaming forever and now look.. in July Pokemon Go raised Nintendo’s value by £6 bn in 2 days!
They are just two examples of many where something has not got off to a good start but has succeeded eventually. How does this link to QR codes I hear you ask.. There has to be a purpose to using a QR code because if there isn’t users will simply not waste their time, so this is definitely a rule that cannot be broken., whether that is to potentially win something, to gain discount/exclusive offer, to gain information etc.
A good example of how to use a QR code is The National Lottery. They put QR codes on lottery tickets. After a draw you can simple scan the QR code on the ticket and it will say where you have matched the draw. Personally I think this is genius, it saves time and gives you an instant result. Not only that, it is easily usable whilst out and about.
Example of a QR code campaign being a success:
At Splitter HQ we have a customer that uses the Pro Plan. They use the QR code feature in cities around Germany. They are on lampposts, fences and in shops. The QR codes are for monthly draws to win money, some QR codes direct users to free testers/free trials and others direct them to the businesses products. On average each QR code has 3000 scans per month (Stats fro Splitter Analytics). They are hugely popular! In conclusion if you make it worthwhile, they will be a success.
Ideas for QR code Campaigns
Most of all the QR code needs to offer the user something.

Splitter HQ is used by businesses around the world. From Co-Ro in Denmark to TheSantaVideo based in the UK. Every business that uses Splitter HQ uses it for different things. During this post we will explain to you how businesses use our features and show you how we could possibly be of assistance to you.
Social Media
Many businesses use Splitter HQ for social media posts. One of our core features is our URL Shortening service. When Splitter HQ first started, this was our only product- Link Management.
Short URLs
Portuguese betting company Bet.Pt used our Short URL’s on social media channel such as Facebook.
They could create Short URLs and monitor the URLs progress via the dedicated Analytics page. From the Analytics page Bet.Pt could see;
How many users had clicked the URL, Where they were located, What device they used, What time they clicked and What platform they were using.
Bet.Pt also found their Click-Through-Rate was improved using us compared to Bitly.
Advanced Targeting
Also we had UK based TheSantaVideo use Splitter HQ for their paid adverts on Facebook.
TheSantaVideo actually used an Advanced Targeting Short URL- Time and Date Split.
This enabled TheSantaVideo to direct their customers to a certain page for a specified duration of their choosing up until Christmas. Once Christmas had been the destination page automatically changed.
TheSantaVideo’s marketing did not lead to any dead ends. The best
thing is, they can use the same URL every Christmas- meaning any paid marketing does not go to waste and can be used year on year. Splitter HQ helps businesses get a better ROI on their marketing.
Splitter HQ was also used by Zenko Properties in Leeds.
This allowed them to create clean looking Short URLs and QR Codes for their properties.
Being able to customise them and track the URL/QR Codes performance helped keep it organised and realise where their customer base was.
Zenko were able to simply share the QR Code on their marketing leaflets for the property of the month.
QR Codes
Philips used Splitter HQ for our QR Codes. The QR Codes were placed around cities for marketing purposes.
This allowed Philips to reach their audience easily.
Philips could track the QR Codes performance
from the Splitter HQ Analytics page. Also if the
destination address changed, they could easily
update it in real time as the QR Codes are
soft coded.
If you are looking for a Link Management Platform or simply looking to target your customer more directly Splitter HQ can be of assistance. We offer a FREE 28 day trial and our plans start from just £45 thereafter. If you have any enquiries please email us: Info@SplitterHQ.com

QR codes can be a powerful marketing tool to keep potential customers engaged. But where should you be directing your customers to? There’s a whole range of options and it all depends on exactly what you want you’re marketing campaign to achieve – Want to boost customer engagement? Send them to your most active social media platform. Advertising a sale? Take your customer straight to where they can bag a bargain.
Here are ten places you can direct your customers with a QR code:
1. To your app – If you’re talking about your app, it’s vital to include a simple, accessible way for potential downloaders to install it instantly. Whether on a billboard or a promotional leaflet, a QR is perfect for taking customers directly to the app store page they need.
2. Social media platforms – If you’re looking to build a community and boost engagement, directing interested customers to your social media platform could be the key. Encourage users to use your QR code and be part of the conversation.
3. Online storefront – Connect your physical and digital offering with a QR code. If you have a retail outlet have QR codes around so that customers know exactly where they can browse online, especially if you have a bigger range available in your digital store.
4. Product information – Some products need more information to encourage users to make a purchase than you can fit in a finite amount of space. A QR code is an ideal way to provide those extra facts and advice.
5. Offers and promotions – If you’re advertising a sale, promotion, or an offer, a QR code can be a customer’s easy was to access exactly what you’re trying to promote.
6. Photos and videos – Some forms of advertising can be static but a QR code can help bring it to life. With links to videos or photographs, you can give your customers a new perspective on your marketing and encourage them to share across social media platforms.
7. Free downloads – Engage with your customers by offering a free download that’s valuable to them. From how to guides to white papers, content that is easily downloadable can capture an audience’s interest.
8. Instructions – Do your products or services require instructions? Provide users with a digital copy through a QR code that perfectly matches on the go lifestyles.
9. Email subscription – Businesses shouldn’t underestimate the power email marketing campaigns can have. Make it simple for interested consumers and businesses alike to leave their email and register their interest in receiving updates.
10. Feedback forms – Feedback can prove invaluable for businesses that are eager to grow. Use a QR to take your customers to a place where they can leave you direct feedback.
