Our office is looking into a brand new product that utilizes QR Codes and none of us on the committee are really sure where to go with the idea.

1. Are you using QR Codes in your Real Estate practice?

2. How are you using them; flyers, business cards, yard signs, print advertising?

3. Are you actually getting "hits" from potential buyers or sellers directly from your QR Code?

4. If you are getting "hits" from the code, does it equal what you used to get from a direct phone call?

5. Has using the QR Code replaced the use of e-mail and cell phones in your market for leads?

Thanking each of you in advance for participating in this QR Questionnaire......

I am actually toying with the idea of buying into this service myself, as well as the the custom text messaging for the listing. I am really curous to hear your feedback from other Active Rainers. Hope you will share it.

I too have been lurking around the QR code issue. I do not use it, I don't see any other agents in my area using it and am on the fence as to whether it is a fad or here to stay. I would love to know the results of your survey.

Hi John. I have been thinking of this issue lately...

I don't use them at all. I have never seen a consumer scan one w/ their phone, either...

Thanks for writing,

Ken
