QR codes are a great tool for getting customers to the exact web location that you want them to visit! Check out some of the top places to send customers via QR codes in the list below.
PS – you can purchase custom QR code stickers here. They’re perfect for sticking straight onto your cartons or business cards!
1. Drive Revenue with More Email Contacts
According to this ebook from Barn2Door, “Consistent emails from your Farm ensures you’re at the top-of the-inbox with updates and information on how to shop, increasing average Farm revenue by up to 35%.”
Make it easy for customers to sign up by linking your QR code to a page where customers can easily give you their email address. Signing up for your farm’s newsletter will make it easier for them to stay aware of deals and new products you are offering.
2. Get more Followers on Social
Keeping customers with your social media accounts can do great things for your business.
Posting regular updates, photos, and videos is a great way to keep your business top of mind for current customers, and to reach entirely new ones!
Link your custom QR code to your Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, or any of your favorite platforms to start gaining more followers!
3. Get more Traffic to Your Website
Your website is a great place to send customers, especially if online ordering is available!
Be warned, though: sending customers to your website may prevent customers from taking any specific actions. The beauty of QR codes is that you can send customers to extremely specific links. Your website may be too broad – even if it has a spot to sign up for your newsletter and links to your socials, customers may not be willing to make that many clicks before exiting out of your site.
4. Link to Your Local Hens Profile
If you want customers to get a quick overview of your business, linking your Local Hens profile to your custom QR code may be the way to go!
List your farm story and a few beautiful photos to grab their attention. All Local Hens profiles also have quick links to Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Youtube, Etsy, and Pinterest available – making it easy for your customers to click on the ones they use and follow you. Contact info is also prominently displayed, which they can screenshot for use at a later date.
5. Create a Virtual Rewards Program
Ever gone to a coffee shop and received a punch card for a free drink after X purchases? Did it make you want to keep coming back, so you could eventually earn that free drink? You can do the same with your farm fresh eggs!
We live in a digital world, and your customers may not want to carry their card around with them all the time. A virtual version makes it easy! Using a digital app for this will also make it easy to track ROI.
Sign up for a virtual punch-card program, place your custom QR code on your carton, and watch as you increase your stream of repeat customers!
Here are a couple of programs that offer this service 100% free (as of 3/21/22, subject to change – we are not affiliated with these companies in any way):
- digiPunchCard: Free up to 100 customers
- PunchCards.com: Free up to 50 customers
