As a reseller or project manager of office furniture fit outs, you know that presentation is everything. For those of us not in Sydney, how can you show off the OLG range to your customer without pointing them to an online catalogue?
In this article, we’ll take a tour of OLG’s Virtual Showroom and list all the ways it’s become an invaluable tool in securing large office fit out deals. If you’re not already using it, by the end of this article, you’ll know exactly how our Virtual Showroom can help you win a deal.
The OLG Virtual Showroom v1.0
At OLG, we’ve been pioneering the virtual showroom concept for almost a decade now. Our original prototype, version 1.0, was built way back in 2013, and at the time, it was the first and only virtual office showroom available on the internet!
It showcased the entire OLG range set up in a range of functional workspaces and customers could wander through at their own pace to explore.
In the original virtual showroom, you could use your mouse to pan around, but any kind of navigation was impossible without clicking on a new scene. You had to look at all the products from a fixed angle and perspective.
Time For a Facelift
After 12 months and thousands of 4K photographs, we’re finally ready to unveil the upgraded virtual showroom for our resellers and project furniture business clients.
Like in the original version, you’ll start your virtual showroom tour from the lobby. Clicking on the door icon will get the tour underway.
If you’ve played around with Google Street View before, you’ll be familiar with the mechanism used to navigate throughout the showroom. Instead of using arrow keys or a controller to move around, you’ll find pulsing white circles on the ground. Each one of these circles represents a new vantage point. (Pictured below)
As you explore the various displays and installations, you’ll notice that many of the products have a floating information icon. Clicking on these icons reveals a product information pop-up with links to purchase from MyOLG.
Likewise, any TV screens, laptops or monitors you might find on your tour will have video content pre-loaded. One click on the screen and the video will start playing.
So, with all these fancy upgrades, there’s still one questions our customers keep asking?
