Building Email Lists from Mobile Phones. BREAKING: QR CODE STATS REVEALED | The MGH Modern Marketing Blog. This week, MGH released results from a survey that gauged consumer awareness and usage of QR codes – an emerging technology that connects people to Web content through bar codes scanned by mobile devices. Deployed to smartphone users, the survey aimed to better understand how and why consumers are using this up-and-coming technology – in order to unearth ways in which marketers could better use the codes. Many of the survey’s results should come as a welcome surprise to advertisers who have struggled to understand if and how the codes could fit into their marketing mix.

Let me summarize my point of view: Barcodes (the Quick Response format, in particular) are more than merely mobile campaign conduits; they are mobile site links.

They are the mechanism through which we as mobile consumers will expect to access mobile site pages, without typing or searching. Making mobile site content accessible in this manner – from everywhere your consumers are – has a name search marketers are familiar with: it’s called link building. In short, I believe QR codes will be how you as a marketer (and how your fans, customers, and community) will weave a web of mobile links around your brand, products, and assets.
