SHOPPER MARKETING MINUTE: QR CODES ARE MAKING A COMEBACK

QR codes are making a big comeback.

How big? 

A recent survey in the US by MobileIron, shows 72% of people scanned a QR code in the past month.

Nowhere is the use of QR codes more noticeable than at your local grocery store where brands are looking to enhance a shopper’s experience.

Leave me a comment and let me know.

Until next time, thanks for visiting.
