  • Publication number: 20150178784
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are techniques for a Lead Generation Tool that create a passive entity, such as a QR code or NFC tag associated with a promotion, and that generate a prepopulated message on a user's communications device when it is scanned, read, or otherwise input to activate the passive entity. As used herein, a “passive entity” is defined to include images, codes, tags, or any other unique identifiers that may be encoded with uniquely identifying information and codes. The term “activating” is defined to include either an action by a user that scans, reads, or otherwise inputs the unique information contained in the passive entity into a device operated by the user or the mere presence of a user near a passive entity while equipped with a passive entity receiver, which will input the unique information contained in the passive entity into a device operated by the user. After activating the passive entity, the user is only required to tap SEND to respond to the promotion.
