3 ways to get better engagement and marketing ROI in 2019

‘Tis the season when marketers scramble to stay on top of the biggest trends to implement in the new year. With a digital marketing opportunity around every corner these days, it’s easy to get lost in all of the potential. Don’t let the new year preparation overwhelm you. No matter which marketing trend you intend to capitalize on, make sure you’re providing a memorable experience for your audience. The best way to provide that experience in 2019 is with immersive marketing. A large percentage of people make up their minds about brands based on digital interactions alone, and it’s becoming more important for brands to have less of a billboard mindset and be more experiential in order to stand-out from competitors. We’re seeing this across every industry. In real estate, 92% of homebuyers searched the internet before every speaking to an agent. Over 41% of home buyers found interactive online maps useful, and 40% also used virtual tours to interact with potential homes online.

VR Is Changing Destination Marketing

No Longer Book Blindly The VR wave is here in many forms and it’s not just for the tech-savvy.  In fact, consumer interest in VR is at an all time high, sitting at 74 percent. VR is officially a marketing tool now and technology continues to provide us with a vast array of applications and online tools so businesses can continue to boost their marketing presence. Crackle just announced their most recent VR aspirations which include brand advertisement, 360-degree video commercials, and even a virtual theater. VR has changed the way we view images, video, and interactive gaming, and now we will be able to experience VR while doing an activity most of us do daily, watching television, with the introduction of VR commercials. The marketing experience is in the hands of the user – they choose what they see and how they see it. Storytelling is no longer frame-by-frame – VR can transport the user to a different place all while keeping them engaged in the experience. Online distributors like Crackle will be one of the first places consumers can experience VR marketing but its uses expand beyond commercials. Entering into the VR world is SISDigital’s newest product, SkyNav,

Marketers Need to Brace for the Future of VR

This week was a big week for WebVR nerds like Ty Downing. Google rolled out some major updates to Daydream and presented a new standalone VR headset with positional tracking that will make VR content look and feel really, really real at this year’s Google I/O conference. Updates to Daydream First, Google announced Wednesday that Daydream will soon be able to cast VR sessions directly to your TV so you can share the experience with everyone in the room. Wearing a VR headset around friends was awkward before so we’re glad it’s becoming more of a social activity. via GIPHY No friends? No worries. Daydream will also allow you to capture screenshots of your VR world to share on social so everyone will be jealous of you. A new dashboard will even allow you to text and access normal Android functions without ever having to leave the VR experience. New Standalone VR Headset w/ AR In other news, HTC and Lenova are working with Google to build a new standalone VR headset that will use inside-out positional tracking to track your precise movements in space — without any external sensors to install. AND, it gets smarter as you wear it.

Key Highlights from The Facebook F8 Developer Conference

On Tuesday, April 18th Facebook began its annual developer conference F8.  Facebook’s CEO Mark Zuckerburg and his executive team made a lot of announcements unveiling new products and software aimed at exciting the developer community. Facebook’s CEO revealed its 10-year road map, showing us the long term goals and visions of the company. Facebook is not entirely a social media company anymore:  Zuckerburg plans to extend its company’s vision beyond its notorious social media platform to one that aims to lead the movement of augmented reality and artificial intelligence. Facebook Launches It’s Open Sourced Augmented Reality Platform The first day of the conference focused heavily on its new augmented reality (AR) technology.  Many people are criticizing Facebook for mimicking Snapchat’s similar photo editing features like filters, text editor, and stickers but Zuckerburg wanted people to be familiar with the layout and look of the software in order to roll out the future technology.  He wants to shift Facebook’s users from mostly sharing text and stories to photo and video by “making the camera the first mainstream augmented reality platform” and implementing filters was the first step into slowly integrating the augmented reality platform into Facebook. Facebook released the beta version
