Here Are 7 Uses For Virtual Reality Trade Show Booths
1. Create A Branded Virtual Reality Video
Having exposure for your company is an amazing thing to do when putting virtual reality into your trade show booth. You would be able to provide an experience for your customers that will stick with them for months! Strike Visuals can film and edit custom VR videos for your virtual reality trade show booth that can tell your brand’s story.
Imagine a walkthrough of your office, a tour of your facilities, lab, or other on-site locations paired with branded graphics in the video to show product specs and more. You can also use this to showcase some of your products that are too big to take with you to your events without having to go through the physical hassle!
2. Games That Align With Your Message
Interacting with the people that visit you at a trade show event is really important! This will help you build a personal foundation that will help with turning them into a potential customer. A great way of making sure they remember your interaction is by putting game in your virtual reality trade show booth.
There is a bunch of VR games that can be used as a way to connect with a branded message. You can’t edit the games but you can create branded posters, flyers, and emails that align your branded message with the game. Then people have fun playing a game and remember your message.
3. Incorporate Physical Elements With VR
Use bikes, 2×6 planks, boats, skis, snowboards, and other real items with VR videos to create a more immersive experience within your virtual reality trade show booths. This can be helpful since your company might be a company that builds bikes or slack line products!

4. Retail Product Education Experience

This can also be used to show customers how your product is used in a real life scenario by recording a video of your items being used.
5. Trips
Take prospects on a virtual trip through natural spectacles such as canyons, lakes, waterfalls, jungles and more. Or, take people through the roots of your brands origins and show them a virtual video of the story of how your company came to be.
Ultimately, aim to give people an experience that they will remember you by.
