Q Code - Do you Know

DO's
1. DO | create a Call to Action... give them a reason to scan your code, tell them what they'll get; view this video on YouTube (create a video about your product)... join our mailing list... find our nearest location... download this info article about... enter our drawing... like us on Face book... follow us on Twitter.
2. DO | always Test, Test, Test... before publishing, test your code on all Smartphone’s (Android, Blackberry, iPhone, Win7) with different readers. There are many popular code readers available. I personally use i-Nigma on my Android (go to www.i-nigma.mobi

on your phone to download it free).

3. DO | use a URL Shortener... this helps to increase the number of scans. Use a service like bit.ly

or their alternative j.mp

(one character shorter). Another is goo.gl

. Both offer tracking with their use.

DON'Ts
1. DON'T | send them to your normal website... create a mobile-enabled version

2. DON'T | make the code too small... the smaller the code the fewer phones that can scan it

3. DON'T | reverse colors to a white code on black or other darker color

QR Code projects make good sense for any kind of business. EmbroidMe can print your Q code on every product.  You'll see more and more use of them for many years.
