I’d like to take this moment and address an issue that is seriously affecting the health and well being of people across this great land of ours. Lazy thumbs. That’s right, I said lazy thumbs. Americans everywhere are being deprived of the ability to improve thumb health and increase their heart rate in frustration daily by a scourge called the QR code.
You’ve seen them everywhere: print ads, tv ads, product labels, on menus, on delivery vehicles, on plane tickets, even on business cards. No longer do I have the joy of not knowing which “Jim” is calling me. No longer will I sigh in frustration trying to enter a url on my teeny-tiny keyboard. No longer will I experience the adrenaline rush of racing to an engagement because I forgot to put it in my calendar…
This month we will explore together the dangers of this terrible little sprite in depth. Join me in the fight against convenience and “user-friendly”! Join me in the fight against “rich content”! Follow along as I show you many of the methods your competitors are using to encourage their customers to reach their content faster.
Be strong! Fight the good fight! And by all means, make sure your family only eats good healthy food for breakfast and not the “EASY TO PREPARE” and “DELICIOUS” breakfast casserole that can be found by scanning to the right.
A brief note from the editor-
The opinions of our marketing manager do not necessarily reflect the opinions of Alphagraphics. We do however recommend that you follow him this month for several reasons:
- He will be giving away a Kindle Fire at the end of the month to one lucky blog subscriber! Just make sure to leave a comment on each blog this month.
- He will be giving away two $50 Gift Certificates on Feb. 9th (just in time for Valentine’s Day)!
- He will be running two more mini-referral games by the end of the month!
If you have a smartphone but do not yet have a QR reader, we recommend the i-nigma or QR Reader app, both of which are available on the Apple and Android App markets. If you have not yet used one, simply download the app and open it up. With the application open, point your camera at the QR code. The app should auto focus and scan the QR automatically, revealing the content in your window.
Good Luck and don’t let John scare you away. He means well………bless his heart.
