I first started using QR codes in early 2010 for my real estate marketing. As far as I can determine, I was the first Realtor in Columbia to use QR code marketing (actually, I don't know of anyone even currently using this).
What is a QR code?
QR Codes (Quick Response Codes) are 2-dimensional bar codes that have actually been around since 1994. They have widely used throughout Japan and in parts of Europe. With the increased adoption of mobile phones, they are increasing in popularity in the United States. QR Code is capable of encoding the same amount of data in approximately one-tenth the space of a traditional bar code.
QR Readers: Search on your mobile device for "QR Reader"
To the right is an example of a new QR code I just created with my picture embedded! Scan it with your mobile device and a QR reader:

Now, here here are QR codes for a NEW Lake Murray waterfront home listing - both home info & Google Map info:

Scan for Home Location on Google Maps |
Finally, the marketing brochure I create highlights home features with QR codes incorporated. Someone driving by the home, gets my maketing piece from the brochure box, scans with a QR reader on their mobile device, and instantly on their mobile phone have access to complete information about the home! Cool.
