KCI in Grand Rapids, MI, helps brands communicate their marketing messages through a variety of services, from digital to print to data management to mailing to fulfillment. One element KCI recommends to its business clients is the use of QR codes. In fact, KCI believes in the power of QR codes so much that it displays a giant one on the side of its van. When a smartphone with a QR code reader is pointed at it, the code takes the user directly to the KCI website. General manager Eric Liggett says the code will soon take users to KCI's dedicated mobile site, for a more small-screen friendly experience.
Putting a QR code on the side of a brand's vehicle is innovative; it goes beyond merely displaying the brand's URL address. It attracts attention, it's fun, and it helps users quickly access more information about you without having to remember and type in a long URL. Great thinking, KCI!
