What Is QR Code Marketing?
QR Codes is a short form for Quick Response Codes. They are simply a type of two-dimensional barcodes that you can only read using a Smartphone or other technology dedicated to QR reading.

Although QR codes are trendy in Japan (where they started with Toyota Group) and in the East, they are not familiar in Uganda. Very few people know and use them. But since many Ugandans now have Smartphones and the number keeps on rising from time to time, QR code marketing can consequently have a significant impact on your business if you use it well.
