Understanding QR codes and how it works can be quite confusing. However, such marketing tools are very essential in our times now when everything is technologically advanced.

To make the concept simpler, we’ll go through each step on how it works.

What are QR codes?

According to PC Mag Definition, QR code is defined as,

“A two-dimensional barcode widely used for many purposes. When scanned with a mobile tagging app in a smartphone, it can cause a Web page to download with information about a product, local event or just about anything. QR codes can capture business card data or send a text message (SMS) that generates a text response. They can also be used for mobile payments. Codes are found in newspapers, magazines, brochures and store shelves, and billboard-size codes can be scanned at a distance, because the QR app uses the phone’s camera.”

These QR codes can be seen on different products such as magazines, boxes of gadgets, and even grocery items such as shampoo, toothpaste, etc. Practically anything can get a QR code. Below is a sample of a QR code, photo credit from PC Mag.

QR Code for ComputerLanguage.com URL

The scanner looks for four squares (arrows) and two alignment lines (yellow) that alternate black and white.

Ahh, now they look familiar, right? When you find these “small square pixel boxes”, they are QR codes. AND… they can carry a lot of information.

QR Codes can be comparable to a Barcode but in a more sophisticated manner since it can contain more information for a particular item, product or advertisement.

How do QR codes work?

As mentioned earlier, QR code is a more sophisticated version of a barcode. Obviously, we know how barcodes work. Barcodes are scanned with barcode readers or optical scanners to show an item’s name, price, or inventory on the POS (point of sale). A barcode can hold only a LIMITED number of information.

Now, QR codes can handle MORE INFORMATION than that. Once a QR code is scanned it can direct you to web links such as websites, schedules, résumés, or more products online. There is a need to be online when scanning the QR code. Why? Because a smartphone or a tablet is used to scan it, by taking a photo of the code.

For the code to be recognizable, you may need to download a QR code application for Apple or Android phones or tablets, so that the code may be translated when after taking a photo of it. These QR code scanners will translate the photo taken of the QR code based on the “squares and alignment lines” it has.

QR codes are essentially used as a marketing tool. It makes it accessible for companies to reach out to people, particularly those who are technologically up-to-date with the use of their devices (smartphones and tablets).

Splitter offers this marketing tool. It can definitely help in increasing the marketing ROI of a company. Splitter can generate clean short URLs and universal QR Codes. It can also detect and analyze the device you are using and direct you to the correct platform. Everything else can be customize to the needs of the client.

Social Media;

Social media can be your best tool in terms of generating an audience. The number of people using social media is rising reasonably quickly. For example, in 2010 there was 0.97 Bn people using social media. Only two years later in 2012, there was 1.4 Bn people and another two years later in 2014, there was 1.87 Bn people using social media. It is estimated that in 2016 there will be 2.22 Bn people using social media and the numbers are estimated to rise even further by 2019 to 2.72 Bn people.

Them statistics alone go to show why social media can be a businesses best tool if used properly. Not only is social media free to use but you can engage with social media users instantly. This is good news for businesses who are wanting to maximize their online presence and get more attention from a wider audience.

In the past, businesses faced the problem of reaching more people to generate more customers. It proved costly and there was very rarely quick results. However, that has all changed; With the use of social media, content sharing is now much easier.

Social media websites such as Twitter and Facebook have key features in helping you push your business in the online world and become recognized by people from different towns/cities and even countries! An example of one of their best features is the hashtag. For this you simply put a hashtag(s) in relation to what you are talking about and customers can then search this and find what they are looking for. Simple!

Social media positives:

* Quick to engage with customers

* Free

* Options to pay for advertising

Social Media negatives:

* Can be difficult to build a following

* Big businesses dominate social media

* Not all content will relate to customers.

Mobile phones and internet users;

This is another important thing for businesses in modern day as it is estimated that there is 3.79bn mobile phone users. This means you can target your customers via a mobile version of your website or an app in one of the stores (Apple App Store/Play Store). The sheer volume of mobile phone users means you have a relatively large base to attract followers. So making a customers experience of your business positive is really important. More and more businesses are beginning to exploit this gem; There has been a steady increase in businesses creating mobile apps and mobile versions of their websites. However, this can prove difficult for small businesses whether it’s due to money, knowing how to and many more reasons.

The number of internet users is also at a remarkable high of around 3.419 Billion internet users. That is almost half of the world! This means you have the potential for a huge number of online customers. However, due to the high amount of social media users, large businesses have also jumped on this. Which unfortunately means it can prove difficult for businesses to get noticed online without the need to pay for advertisement.

Mobile phones and internet users positives:

* Large audience

* Easy to target customers

* target users on the go

Mobile phone and internet users negatives:

* Can be hard to compete with large businesses

* Can be costly; creating a mobile version of your website is not cheap

* It can be difficult to make an impact with users.

I have only touched on these but you can see the impact that social media can have for your business. If you use social media right, you can massively reduce your advertising costs.
