PRINTING FRANCHISE OFFERS EXPERTISE IN MARKETING
with QUICK RESPONSE CODES
MARTINSBURG, WV, December 13, 2010. Today, Sir Speedy Printing unveiled an on-line
tool that allows small businesses to interact instantly with consumers, no matter where they
are. The Quick Reference Code, or QRC, is a bar-code in the shape of a small square. It can
be created and printed on anything from a Christmas card to a post card to a real-estate sign.
Mobile tagging blends traditional print media with online media. Smart phones can now scan QR
codes and link to pricing, coupons, video, or web sites instantly. Sir Speedy, an internationally
franchised printing and marketing company, is the first in the Martinsburg area to realize the
potential of this new technology and offer small businesses help in its application.
“For instance, if you are driving around looking at real-estate, you could go up to the sign in
the yard, scan the QRC with your smart phone and get a virtual tour of the house and all it’s
stats. Just point the camera on your phone at a QRC, click, and you have access to information,
coupons, contests; the possibilities are limitless,” said Roberta Chromey, owner of Sir Speedy
Printing.
QRC readers can be downloaded for free onto most smart phones and may soon come already
installed. Sir Speedy offers help engaging and utilizing this amazing new technological tool
which heralds a new age in marketing potential for local businesses.
“This is the hottest thing to come down the pike since texting,” exclaimed Chromey,
“Everyone is going to be doing it!”
