Create interactive videos

There are a lot of different ways to use QR codes in your marketing - one of which is customized QR codes on your videos. The idea is that when people view your video, they'll see a QR code and then scan it with their phone. This allows you to direct them to any other page on the web, such as a landing page or social media profile.


You can also use these codes in Instagram posts or Facebook ads if you're promoting a product or service without having an actual video available. In this case, the QR code will lead directly to your landing page where people can purchase whatever it is you're selling through your website instead of having them watch a video first before purchasing anything online.

Turn any packaging into sales

What's the easiest way to increase reorders? Adding a QR code to your packaging! Make it so easy that your customers have no choice but to order again and again by adding a Flowcode to your packaging. A Flowcode can be placed on just about any type of packaging including boxes, bags, or bottles.

The best part about using QR codes on your packaging is that there’s nothing for you or your customers to do. Your customers simply need to scan the code using their phones and it will automatically redirect them to an order page where they can purchase whatever item is being sold in just seconds!

Creative QR code design

QR codes are a great way to get visitors to your website. When used correctly, they can help you boost conversions and increase sales.


But the problem with QR codes is that they can be difficult to make look good. There are many free QR code generators out there but most of them produce ugly and unprofessional-looking codes.


The good news is that you don't have to settle for an ugly QR code because Flowcode has been designed specifically for creating beautiful and professional-looking QR codes that complement your designs instead of turning them into eyesores. Paid plans allow you to work with our team of artists that harness art QR code design to fits your brand and drive more sales.

Direct mail, direct results

When it comes to direct mail, it's easy to get lost in the noise. You know that you need something unique and different than what your competitors are doing, but where do you start?


QR codes are a great way to do just that. They're inexpensive and can be used on everything from letters to postcards and even direct mail packages.


Not sure which mailer campaign will dive results? Place a unique QR code on different creatives and test in a smaller market before printing the full campaign. Then, use Google Analytics or another web analytics tool to track results based on specific creatives' responses.
