What is StickyBits? Code Scanning Location and Product Based Social Check In Marketing

What Is Stickybits?

Stickybits is a free app you use to scan barcodes on all the stuff you love, instantly turning it into even more stuff you love. Scan a snowboard – win free lift passes. Scan some wireless headphones – see what people say about them and check out what your friends are listening to. Scan a box of frozen chalupas – get a 2fer for even más chalupas. You get the idea. Scan any barcode. Read reviews and comments, and share your own. Score a bunch of big discounts and free stuff – both for what you’re scanning and related things you’ll like.

With the free stickybits app you have the key to unlock every single barcode to reveal an infinite world of info and deals. With a quick scan, you enter a social space where you can post and read info, reviews, tweets and videos. You can also grab details and promos attached to products, which you can cash in instantly.

Want the best stuff first? Compete in challenges to win free products and get points for stuff you’ve scanned – the more points you nab, the earlier you get in on the next challenge. (Think: never-ending treasure hunt. More scans = more scratch.)

QR Code Marketing for Business: Fast List Signups on Mobile Devices with QR Codes -

QR codes, those strange siblings of UPC codes, are starting to gain some mass appeal as more and more people buy smart phones with cameras and apps smart enough to read them. QR codes store information like a web page location that is unlocked when scanned using one of the many free or cheap apps for iPhone, Android, and other mobile platforms. They’ve been making frequent appearances on movie posters, such as the one below for Iron Man 2, which points people to a companion website containing the trailer, and lots of bonus content. It’s sort of a little reward for those curious enough to explore.

Have you seen this alien looking sqaure box of mumbo jumbo on posters or in magazines or newspapers lately? While they may seem gimmicky (e.g. why not just write the URL), more and more businesses are dabbling with using QR codes for marketing and advertising. Just today I received Aeroplan's Arrival magazine that contained a big QR code to download their magazine app, and another scannable code to allow me to Like their Page in Facebook. Can you imagine ways you could use QR codes in your offline marketing for your business? Put a code on your business card or flyers or event notifications? Drive people to sign up for your email newsletter (as is discussed in detail using Mailchimp in the full article link above).
Contact us today to schedule a free 30 minute consultation to discuss internet marketing strategy for your business and how using QR codes might help you achieve your business goals. http://stirsolutions.com/consultation
