What is a QR Code and why does my business need one?

What are QR Codes?

QR Codes, or Quick Response Codes, are a special type of barcode that has been around for over 10 years. QR Codes have many uses but the one that is on the front of the mobile revolution is giving the ability of a smartphone user to quickly and easily get access to information with a single click. From accessing your mobile site (what ServicePlatform provides), to sending an instant message, QR Codes make it easy for customers to get access to what is important to them.

Does my business need a QR Code?

Yes. Having a QR Code displayed means customers can quickly and easily get access to your business’s information and mobile service lists. Putting a QR Code in your business’s window or on the door means a customer can use their smartphone to quickly see your services. One-click and your business’s mobile website is pulled up for them.

When a user scans your QR Code this is what they see (for your business):

What do I do once I have a QR Code?

Place the QR Code everywhere your customers may be looking to get access to your business’s services and information from their smartphone. Suggestions: On the door or window of your business, on marketing material for your business, any ads you may be placing. These are just a few of the many places that will help your customers quickly get to the information they’re interested in.

Where do I get a QR Code for a business?

Simply log into your account on ServicePlatform and click on the business’s name.  Your QR Code will be on the right side-bar along with other detailed information about your business (access to mobile site, website).

 

Feel free to point your smartphone’s QR reader to the sample on this page. You’ll be taken to our sample business’s mobile site.
