This past weekend, SnapTags were on display along with Dell’s new mini Netbooks at Austin City Limits Music Festival. Dell is the first computer manufacturer to use SnapTags, the more accessible, branded alternative to a 2D barcode, in event marketing.
Dell used SnapTags to drive interest and awareness in the mini Netbook by featuring a picture of the new product as the centerpiece of the promotional SnapTag. Consumers were invited to snap and send in the Dell SnapTag for the opportunity to win ACL Backstage passes, concert tickets to future show or a Dell Mini 10 Netbook.

The impact of Event Marketing has historically been tough to evaluate. Demonstrating a product among an event filled with a product’s target market feels like a good strategy, but only if a marketer really creates awareness and engages the consumer in a meaningful way.
SnapTags offer brand marketers a means for making event marketing more effective and measurable:
1. SnapTags provide consumers a simple means for participating in a brand promotion at event.
2. SnapTags give brand marketers a way to convert interest to an ongoing conversation when they offer access to an email or text club.
3. SnapTag promotions can be used to drive booth or display traffic.
In an unprecedented move, MediaNews Group, one of the nation’s largest newspaper companies has added SnapTags to its “Live Better” special sections to give its print newspapers interactive functionality. This branded, more accessible alternative to a 2D barcode, appeared this week in the inaugural Live Better special section entitled Live Green running in 28 newspapers reaching over 3.8 million readers nationwide.
MediaNews Group is the first newspaper company to offer this interactive ability for readers and advertisers on a wide-scale. SnapTags allow readers to access extra digital content from the newspapers and advertisers themselves, including special offers, additional stories, coupons, prizes, free samples, etc. without ever having to leave their couch or kitchen table or put their newspaper down. SnapTags allow this content to be delivered instantly back to the reader’s cell phone – all readers have to do is snap a photograph of any of the SnapTags placed throughout Live Better special sections, send it to a designated phone number or e-mail address and get back unique extras.

And since nearly 90 percent of advertising budgets still go toward traditional print advertising, using SnapTags allows MediaNews Group and its advertisers an option to innovate to make the most of their print ads – setting them apart from the competition and allowing them to give readers more of what they want, when they want it.
Look for SnapTags in future special sections and editions of local MediaNews Group papers.
