g+ Yellow Pages and QR Codes

Mike Downes  -  Nov 2, 2011  -  Public

When a company cares only about itself is when their customers go elsewhere. Spot the QR Code on the cover and the inside (for the app) - but not in ONE customer advertisement.

If I were running Yellow Pages every ad (with a website) should have a QR Code.

Mike Downes  -  +Gareth Baker Yep, some reasesrch a while back said something like 96% of the books stayed in plastic covers (unopened). Now, in the UK YP charge high bucks for very little.. Google Places etc knock teh socks off competitors. But message must be to adapt or die. Even Harley Davidson and JCB learned this way. Where would we be without their T-shirts, Hats and keyrings..

Mike Downes  -  +Kerry Blakeman I heard you can lose up to 30% (?) to add in your own logo. ps Did you see the post to you and Simon about training?

Kerry Blakeman  -  +Mike Downes Yes I did! We don't use training, we are all self taught - with a lot of help from you!
