Microsites are useful in a number of situations. Here's our top tips.

We have adapted our microsite platform to automatically create branded microsites and QR codes. By accessing the right information from a company’s database or databases, we can gather, sort and communicate that information in an easily-digestible way.

Brands often want to go out of their way to talk to their customers and be there where they are. Building brand loyalty is a time-consuming task that requires care and attention. And consumers have high expectations - they expect a seamless experience whether they're opening the box on a new product or using a service.

What is Digital Product Passport

Solhemmet builds premium living accommodation for seniors in Sweden. Every successful building project requires buy-in from a range of political interests, organisations and individuals in the local community. It means that a big part of the Solhemmet assignment is communicating its value before starting any project. To succeed, Solhemmet is using Kolla as an integral part of its marketing and communications.

While regular websites try to be everything to everyone, microsites shine by doing one thing exceptionally well. Microsites typically consist of just a few pages dedicated to a specific product, campaign, or initiative. This focused approach allows for specialized design, targeted messaging, and streamlined user journeys that might get lost in the broader context of a main website.

“For us, Kolla was the perfect match,” says Marcin Zielinski, Product Manager at Doro, jumping straight to the conclusion. The phone and smart device company Doro is currently using Kolla to help market their new connected doorbells to seniors.

QR codes and microsites have emerged as powerful tools for connecting physical products with digital experiences. The numbers speak for themselves: QR code creation has increased by 238% from 2021 to 2023, and the trends show no signs of stopping.

A QR-code in every home gives guests the right information at the right time. When guests arrive at a ski resort, they just want to get into their accommodation, pick up their skis and hit the slopes; a seamless skiing experience. It’s easier said than done.
