- 23. AR is so much better! • Really? • If the implementation is bad, if it has no added value, AR will face the same destiny… • E.g. lack of instructions, visibility • E.g. links only active for a limited time • But when implemented in the right way: fantastic opportunities! • E.g. engagement • E.g. reduced complexity • E.g. the missed sales opportunity!

Conclusions • AR, QR can keep print relevant • Provide metrics, show ROI! • #1 biggest gap in marketing • But it has to be done in the right way • Something useful… • Not just link to general (non mobile) website • QR: readability is issue • Size does matter • Test upfront, with ‘bad’ devices! • Tell people what they can expect, what they need to make it work (e.g. special app) Contents •QR is dead •AR is much better •Staying relevant •Conclusions © VIGC - 27/03/2014 VIGC - Print needs AR & QR! 35
