DESCRIPTION
How do personalized variable data technologies increase response rates over static direct marketing efforts? Often, the process is as much about art as it is science. We’ll discuss the relevant variables that influence the success of a one-to-one marketing campaign. These variables include the relevance of message, the offer, the timing, the size of the campaign, the list (house vs. outside) and the quality of the creative. Response rates vary greatly by campaign objective. This slide share discusses the five major objectives: Direct Order, Lead Generation, Lead Nurture/Follow Up, New Customer Experience, and Loyalty. We’ll review how utilizing PURLs and QR codes can support your efforts, helping to qualify and quantify results, especially when coordinated with a cross-channel, multi-media effort that includes email marketing and other mass media assets. Real life case studies have been provided to support you in implementing your own successful campaign. Lisa Landry, Founder and Creative Director, Savvy Workshop

QR CodesQR Codes
Are QR Codes Dead?Are QR Codes Dead?
Technology to link to mobile devices has shifted
dramatically
• QR codes are no longer the primary activation tool
• The primary activation type was image recognition (60%),
followed by QR codes (24%) and watermarks (12%)
• However QR codes remain the technology of choice,
representing 60% of mobile triggers, because a high
percentage of mobile users already have QR scanning
apps
• QR codes won’t disappear any time soon, but eventually,
they will be replaced
