Offline X Factor | Jack Mize

rickmosca Hey Rick,

Not to preempt Jack, but I think I can give at least a partial answer: I found a WSO (Warrior Special Offer) which is QR software designed mainly to work with email lists, but the product creator says it will also work for text opt-ins.I don't think there's any way to auto-sign someone up, because they need to take at least one action to give you permission, but this comes close.

The thing I like is that it brings up, and prepopulates the opt-in form as soon as the person scans the code, so all they have to do is click to submit. I think it's about as automatic as you can get so far. I am not an affiliate, but I like it a lot. I hope I'm not stepping on Jack's toes if I post a link - if I am, Jack, I trust you will tell me and I'll remove it, or maybe you can just delete my comment. Anyway, here it is:

http://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-special-offers...

rickmosca I have to correct myself. Don Wilson has said he's going to add a text opt-in option, so I guess for now his software only creates an opt-in form for email, and I think it works with Aweber or Getresponse, and no other autoresponders.

Greg Vinsonrickmosca Greg/Rick, Greg is correct in what the QRC software WSO will do. However, another that is probably better for what you want to do, Rick, IMHO, is Chad Wyatt's SMS Plugin. It'll give you lots of control and flexibility. I have it, and recommend you check it out FWIW...

Greg Vinsonrickmosca checked this wso out looks interesting, but seems to be a lot of grumbling on the forum about it, read a ton of the posts , but still on the fence with this one..

mikeb1 I read most of the comments too, and I have to say, most of the negatives are the typical whiners, imo. The guy, Don Wilson, has an excellent reputation, and supports his products well, (it's the third product of his I've bought) but suit yourself. It might not be for you, but I'm just saying, the grumblers, are imo, morons, so I hope you don't let them concern you.

Just a heads up in regard to the QR code for email list...Rather than investing in a WSO you can do it for free with this QR code generator and your aweber account. http://delivr.com/QR-Code-Generator. Choose email as code type and send the message to your aweber "listname"@aweber.com to add them to your list and deliver their coupon via autoresponse. Greg Vinson rickmosca

What I want to do is add them to a sms list, not email.

If you use http://delivr.com/QR-Code-Generator and choose SMS to shortcode in combination with Jack's Mobile X Factor (or perhaps another Mobile pkg. but I use MXF) that would do what you want. Rick. rickmosca jcwaller Greg Vinson Jack Mize - Offline X Factor

jcwallerGreg Vinsonrickmosca jc, would you be available for me to phone you to discuss this in greater detail, as I am trying to get my head around this very important topic to use it effectively. However, I'm not quite there yet. 66 and still learning! tschell@usa.net 936-372-9541

Greg Vinsonrickmosca Another U.S. product I see again, we just seem so far behind here in the uk with all this stuff

MorrisMurphy I just recently created my first QR code, and would be quite interested in the list you are talking about putting on your site. I know they can be used to start a phone call, a text messaging opt-in, or go to a URL, but that's about the extent of my knowledge, and even those uses may have sophisticated nuances that I haven't thought of. I hope to get a chance to check it out soon.

I think it may be because the offer may not have it's own page. It could be a text message sign-up form or another offer. Just my thought anyway. maderemark

At first glance that may be true however, businesses may want to run the SAME offer on more than one occasion, say 2x per month. By using a different page, they don't have to recreate the offer each time they want to run it. Point to the URL and off you go. maderemark

When I rotate offers, I just save each offer page with a different name: 06june.html, 07july.html. When I'm ready to change offers, I just save a copy of an already created offer with the name of the landing page the QR code directs to.

maderemark Good point. You absolutely could skip the redirection step if you have control over the ultimate destination page such as switching out coupons etc...

I wanted to show it with a little more flexibility in case you destination was something you may not have complete control over.

For example a Real Estate agent that may have QR Codes printed on their signs that direct users to an mls listing. They wouldn't be using that same MLS listing page for the next house, so they would need to redirect to the new MLS listing.

There are a ton of different circumstances that may require more flexibility than changing the static page at the other end, but if you are dealing with a situation that allows it you can certainly skip that part.

Thanks for a solid example that makes sense to me. Excellent video Jack. Jack Mize - Offline X Factor maderemark

Jack Mize - Offline X Factormaderemark Jack you are brilliant!. People do not understand the complete concept yet. Let me explain.. First 99% of QR codes are scanned with a MOBILE Device. These QR codes are saved on their mobile device. If you save as "joeshmo.com/weeklydeal" those mobile devices will always show the weekly deal as a "bookmarked QR code"! They can check the deals each week or month whenever they want.. The last point... if you have qr code saved on your mobile device, you can share with your friends, so the code becomes viral!

Great Lesson Jack!

MaggNet You have many options. You could setup Pretty Link on your site and point to offers on other sites. It all just depends on the level of control and ownership of the process you want.

Interesting.Can you elaborate? PRO-FOUND

billjoycePRO-FOUND My pleasure, Bill. It's a multi-faceted marketing tool that any business can use in place of business cards. Purchase once and receive an on-going marketing platform--too many benefits to list here; it's all on my web site including a video that shows the life-saving features. A dynamic QR code is included on the back side to reflect changes in the special deals, offers and promotions offered by the business. Customers are adding them to their keychains, outerwear and sporting equipment. What I love about the QR Code feature is that when I create a sample for a prospect, I always make the QR code direct to their web site...and if their web site isn't optimized for mobile phones, I can pitch them on that after I develop the relationship.

Thank you Jack Mize, for giving me the tools that give my business purpose and direction.

What's your website Very interesting PRO-FOUND

PRO-FOUNDbilljoyce Wow! What a Powerful Door Opener! What do you charge for the Dynamic QRC for the Biz Owner? Anyone? Thanks.

billjoyce Bill, if you click on PRO-FOUND next to my picture it will take you to my site, profoundprocess.com.

Terry, I agree, the dynamic QR Code is a powerful door opener. I don't know what others will be charging for dynamic QR services, but for my marketing tool, the business pays one price for a quantity (minimum 100 for $159) and it includes all the marketing features going forward.

PRO-FOUNDbilljoyce Stephanie, your site and services are Outstanding! Most Impressive, indeed. Your Keytag with the dynamic qrc is brilliant. It is this that you charge the $159 for 100 tags, yes? I am thinking of offering it as part of a marketing offering to biz owners as part of a larger sms program I have created, and have to think how much I might charge for this value-added component. Any suggestions are appreciated. Hope we can hook up one day soon..
