How a Simple QR Code Helped Spread Byron's Message to Thousands of People

One Scan at a Time: How Byron and The JJ Effect Are Reaching the Masses

When Byron set out to make a difference through his charity, The JJ Effect, he knew the message had to reach as many young people as possible. Speaking across schools and events, his words were powerful - but he needed a way to carry that message even further, long after the talk was over.

That’s where we came in.

 

From Tap to Scan - Multi-Channel Engagement

We started by supplying Byron with a Digital Business Card - a PiNGCARD that makes sharing his details fast and easy during face-to-face conversations.

But we didn’t stop there.

For school assemblies and larger events, where he’s speaking to hundreds of students at once, we created a custom QR code, projected on-screen at the end of each talk. The result?

🚀 Over 1,300 scans in just 90 days
📱 660+ unique profile visitors
🙌 Engagement that continues after the assembly ends

Whether they wanted to follow on Instagram, watch more videos, or access support - students could do it instantly, from their seat.

 

Why It Worked - And What You Can Learn

Byron’s success highlights one of the most overlooked strategies in business and charity outreach:

Multiple access points = maximum results

At UKBD Digital & PiNGCARD, we believe there are 3 golden opportunities to engage your audience:

  1. Immediately – with our NFC Display Plates, Stands and Cards.

  2. Later on – via QR codes on invoices, receipts, packaging and links on emails/texts.

  3. In crowds – presentations, pop-ups, shop windows, events

By combining tap and scan, you capture every moment - no missed opportunity.
