Promotional Products leap from Desktop to Internet with QR Codes

(LOS ANGELES) – February 7, 2011 – MagiCubes.com® has taken its 3D promotional products to the next level of customer engagement. Magic Cubes are utilized as Promotional Products that are given away as gifts at Trade Shows and business meetings. Now, Quick Response (QR) code placement on all Magic Cubes products allows B2B and B2C marketers to link their 3D physical desktop promotional product to the online world.

MagiCubes® are a 3D promotional item that can be manipulated from nine to twenty separate images/messages that are printed with stunning graphics. The advertising puzzles can be changed into a variety of shapes including a business card or soda can. The QR codes drive prospects from the 3D MagiCube® instantly to mobile websites, videos, eCoupons, surveys, online quizzes, blogs, and more with a simple click / scan from a mobile phone using QR reader software. Most new phones have the QR reader installed, or it can be easily downloaded from Apple App Store, Android Market, and BlackBerry App World.

“When it comes to picking out promotional giveaways, it’s important to keep the perceived value in mind,” comments Ron Friedman, founder of http://MagiCubes.com. “Can simple branded items reinforce your MarCom objectives with tangible ROI? MagiCubes already engage and have lasting impressions, now they also drive customers directly to your digital content and can push a new offer again and again as frequent as you like, via a QR code, and that’s desktop branding with integrated real-time lead generation.”
A marketing plan that includes a fun and interactive promotional product can be important to the bottom line, but you need to be able to track the ROI to justify spend. Friedman explains, “QR codes are of particular interest to marketers because it gives them the ability to measure response rates with a high degree of precision for demographic and geographic analytics. This allows for easier ROI calculation, thus helping justify spending on marketing budgets. ”
