Maximize Event Sponsorships with QR Code Giveaways

In the ever more competitive world where people are scrambling for an AI solution to stand out, thinking outside the box has never been more requisite.

Picture This: You’re sponsoring a golf hole for a local tournament, and instead of just using that standard sign with your logo on it, you add your QR code right to the sign, AND you have a swag bag of customized ball markers that are given out to each player. Of course, the ball marker will have your QR code on it as well. With a simple scan, they’re instantly watching your video business card, engaging with your brand in a way that’s personal and memorable.

Now, imagine a summer pool party where beach balls with your QR code are bouncing from person to person, turning a fun giveaway into a powerful networking tool.

This is the future of event sponsorships—leveraging QR codes on creative giveaways to drive engagement and build connections.

Why Our QR Codes are Different

Many companies are using QR codes these days, but they typically direct the prospect to a sales funnel where the seller may never know you scanned it unless you took the next step to engage. When scanned, our QR codes create a text on the user’s phone that when sent, will trigger your video business card to be sent to them, AND you will automatically download their cell phone number and name directly into your CRM. Now you will have text access to EVERYONE who has scanned your card, seconds after they do it!! All while they are engaging with your brand and video.

You will be known as “Hey that’s the guy with those cool ball markers!” or “That’s the gal with those fun beach balls!!”

Turn Giveaways into Lasting Connections

By integrating a QR code linked to a Digital Accelerant video business card, you’re not just handing out a promotional item—you’re creating an interactive experience. Potential customers can scan, watch, and connect with you instantly, ensuring that your brand remains top of mind long after the event ends.
