Abstract
An information processing system includes: an acquirer that acquires first information relating to an advertisement; a determiner that determines, based on the acquired first information, whether or not to create a product to be created by an image forming apparatus as a product of which an advertising effect of the advertisement can be measured; and an output section that outputs a result of the determination.
Claims10
An information processing system comprising:
- an image forming apparatus;
- a computer comprising:
- an acquirer that acquires first information relating to an advertisement;
- a determiner that determines, based on the acquired first information, whether to create a product to be created by an image forming apparatus as a product on which print information for measuring an advertising effect of the advertisement is printed or as a product on which the print information is not printed;
- and
- an output section that outputs a result of the determination in the determiner;
- the imaging formation apparatus creates the product on which print information for measuring the advertising effect of the advertisement is printed or as the product on which the print information is not printed, the print information for measurement on the product being a two-dimensional code obtained by encoding a URL;
- and
- wherein the acquirer acquires second information relating to the advertising effect of the product after the product of which the advertising effect of the advertisement can be measured is created by the image forming apparatus and upon a user accessing the URL using the two-dimensional code printed on the product via a camera on a smartphone.

- (a) acquiring first information relating to an advertisement;
- (b) determining, based on the acquired first information, whether to create a product to be created by an image forming apparatus as a product on which print information for measuring an advertising effect of the advertisement is printed or as a product on which the print information is not printed;
- (c) outputting a result of the determination in (b);
- (d) creating, by the image forming apparatus, the product on which print information for measuring the advertising effect of the advertisement is printed or as the product on which the print information is not printed, the print information for measurement on the product being a two-dimensional code obtained by encoding a URL;
- and
- (e) acquiring, by the computer, second information relating to the advertising effect of the product after the product of which the advertising effect of the advertisement can be measured is created by the image forming apparatus and upon a user accessing the URL using the two-dimensional code printed on the product via a camera on a smartphone.
