Signs are there to send a message. The idea of a sign, no matter where it is, is that someone sees it and thinks that they want to know more about whatever it is you’re trying to say. Whether you’re trying to sell a cool and innovative product, or you have a service that you want to offer those that need help, or you have political issues you want to bring attention to, signs are the first step towards making sure that you’re able to get out there.
Signs are one of the best ways to reach your audience. But they also offer very limited space for sharing the details of your message. That is why many companies use what’s known as a “QR Code” to help make sure that anyone that is interested in learning more about whatever it is you’re sharing can do so with a few clicks of their phone.
A QR Code is square shaped and made up of a wild assortment of lines and squares. But it works similarly to a bar code. Computers – usually Smartphones – can read this code and then take the appropriate action. For example:
The information about what to do is embedded in this code, which looks like a simple picture to people but can contain over 4,000 characters to computers.

Signs may have limited space, but a QR code can make sure that anyone that wants to learn more about what you offer because of your sign can do so with only a few clicks. Most people have QR readers already in their phones, and all they need to do is put the QR code on the display and the phone or tablet will do the rest.
At Signs NYC, we can help you create signs that have these embedded QR codes. We can even make sure that the QR code fits into the design without distracting from your message, and we can make sure that your QR code is visible, readable to technology, and ready to continue to help you bring in business or share your message.
