Generate QR Codes
With Blazon you can promote your online contest with offline advertising. For instance, you may choose to promote your contest in a magazine, or via a postcard.
QR codes are used to track the performance of your offline advertising.
Generating a QR code for your Blazon contest is easy!
First, add an entry point that defines the source of your offline advertising. For instance, “Postcard” may be your entry point.
Second, generate the QR code to be printed within your offline ad. You may, for instance, create a QR code on a postcard that an entrant scans with a smartphone. Blazon will track that entry point in the Dashboard.
