Have you seen one of these before?  It is ok if you haven’t. it is not some new modern art trend that you are missing out on.  This is a QR Code or also known as a “matrix barcode” This  is a 2-dimensional barcode which can be scanned by any barcode scanner which includes the one  on your iphone or smartphone.  Go ahead and scan the code with your phone above and see where it takes you!

QR codes were created in the middle 1990’s in Japan and were used in manufacturing to track parts and shipments. Known as Quick Response barcodes these specialized barcodes allowed the tracking of parts to much more efficient but also allowed users to get important information at the same time.  Over the past decade these codes have started appearing outside of the manufacture sector and made their way into advertising.

You will start seeing these funny looking barcodes more and more in stores, newspapers and magazines.  You might have seen one in a newspaper advertisement or even a magazine already but you probably did not know what it was.  What marketers and advertisers love about these barcodes is allowing customers/shoppers to get the specific digital information quickly and directly.

At Art Gamblin Motors we have created a specific QR code for each one of our vehicles.  When you are shopping  or looking around at one of our vehicles and you want to find out what options or the current internet price all it takes is a quick scan with your smart phone.  Each QR code will take you directly to each vehicles specific page on our website www.gamblinmotors.com.
