Generating QR Codes for Print Advertising Campaigns
Print advertisers embed QR codes in magazine ads, billboards, and direct mail pieces to bridge offline and online marketing. Each QR code links to a trackable URL for measuring campaign performance.
Workflow
- Create UTM-tagged landing page URLs for each print placement
- Use the QR Code Generator to create a QR code for each trackable URL
- Download QR codes as high-resolution SVG for print use
- Use the Image Resizer to scale QR codes for different ad sizes (business card vs billboard)
- Test each QR code's scannability at the expected viewing distance
- Place QR codes in the print ad layouts and send to the publisher
