Promoting a business in 2021 requires much more than setting up a website and social media accounts. For a company to truly wow its audience, it needs to look beyond basic strategies and invest in tools such as virtual spaces that maximize engagement and create memorable experiences.
The boundaries between real and digital are blurring. Brands and customers may not be able to interact in person anymore – at least not like they used to before 2020 – but customers expect online presentations to be authentic and immersive. And what’s more immersive than virtual reality?
By creating a customized virtual room, you can present your products and services in a unique way, get closer to your customers, and stand out from your competitors.
What Are Customized Virtual Spaces?
Customized virtual rooms use the latest 3D modeling and rendering technologies to showcase your company in impressive environments. You can showcase them on your website, where visitors can explore them in a similar way to virtual booths, exploring them via VR headset is also a good option. This means that audiences can walk around the room/world and they can interact with objects around them as if they were real. It’s the ultimate impressive experience that sparks their curiosity and keeps them interested far longer than any website could.
Our brains only remember 20% of what they see. However, they remember 80% of what they see AND do. Customized virtual spaces pull virtual guests into your world, where they aren’t simple spectators. They can explore it as if they would in real life, which means they’re more likely to remember you.
Most Effective Applications
Customized virtual spaces are a versatile presentation and promotional tool.
Here are some of their most effective applications:
- Marketing: you can create a customized virtual space where customers can interact with your products in an engaging way.
- Education: when face-to-face training isn’t possible, customized virtual spaces can be used to train staff and students (i.e., a virtual laboratory, virtual museum, virtual operation room for surgical training, virtual medical care environments, etc.)
- Business: you can welcome your business partners in a virtual meeting room where they can attend a trade show or exhibition.
