Placing a QR code on advertisements like billboards, in magazines and newspapers, and anywhere else, can send potential clients directly to your website for videos with testimonies and stories about your agency. The digital marketing experience peaks interest in the client beyond print.

5. QR code analytics are measurable

Check the analytics of any scan in the Supercode analytics dashboard. See where every scan has come from and even receive feedback with QR codes for feedback. Now you can measure the success of your digital marketing campaign the way you cannot with printed marketing materials.
