Why Join Us? - ShopPEEK BenefitsHaving your establishment listed in an online directory is now an integral part of marketing your business. Most serious businesses are already listed in print directories like the Yellow Pages, White Pages, etc. However, more and more people are using the internet to search for business and tourist information and this trend is rapidly overtaking conventional print and TV advertising.
It’s also a very affordable option to expose your products and services to millions of people.Many businesses may already have their own web page but don’t get many “hits” or qualified leads because they simply can’t be found! This is largely due to bad search engine optimization. Being listed in an online business directory can help provide links to your website and thus increase the number of visitors (potential customers) to your site.
There are multitudes of business directories on the web where you can list your business, but how effective are they? Many aren’t very effective at all.
So, what makes ShopPEEK 360 different and why should you get a listing with us?
Increased interactivity with 360 degree panoramas
ShopPEEK 360 is the only online business directory which showcases shops and locations in 360 degrees, where visitors can take virtual tours of your location and view products and information within your panorama. They can look around and interact with the images like never before.
People are becoming more web savvy and the demand for more interactivity and visual content is increasing.
Studies have shown if an advertisement for a product or service is more interactive and the more you give potential customers the feeling of “being there”, then the more likely they are to “connect” with and use that product or service.
ShopPEEK aims to give visitors this feeling of being there to encourage them to visit your business “for real”!Most other online business directories provide only basic text listings (with a couple of still photos) among thousands of others listed businesses, which doesn’t make your business stand out or provide in depth details about your business.
ShopPEEK 360 aims to provide visitors with an inside sneak peak at your business and what you have to offer though interactive images and quality content. Take a look at what you get in a ShopPEEK subscription.Listings on 3 platforms : desktop, mobile and iPhone/iPod Touch
Advertisers on ShopPEEK 360 also have their business showcased on our “PocketPEEK” directories for mobile phones and iPhone/iPod Touch, allowing users to find your business while on the go.
The specially designed PocketPEEK for iPhone/iPod also allows users to peruse your business in 360 degrees by using the touch screen!No random advertising clutter: You are the ad!
Listings on most other business directories are cluttered with unrelated advertising banners and Google ads that may cause viewers to lose focus on your content and click away to another web page.
ShopPEEK 360 focuses visitors on your content only by offering each advertiser their own full page complete with panoramas, still photo gallery, textual information, logo, maps and downloadables such as brochures, menus, etc.Coupons and Treasure Hunt Giveaways
Let’s face it, everyone loves a bargain and ShopPEEK 360 aims to attract visitors with competitive coupons (accessible by PC, mobile or iPhone/iPod) and giveaway vouchers for any business listed on the site.
Offer a discount coupon or giveaway on your ad page and see the increase in the number of people visiting your business for real.
ShopPEEK 360 also offers a daily “Treasure Hunt”. Visitors try to answer a daily question by browsing panoramas of businesses to find the answer. The person with the highest score at the end of the month wins a $100 voucher to spend at one business of their choice listed on ShopPEEK 360 (paid for by us, of course).Attracting both local and global tourists with VIRTUAL VISITOR
As well as providing shop info to Perth locals, ShopPEEK 360 also doubles as a virtual tour guide, showcasing stunning 360 degree panoramas of tourist related sites of interest in and around Perth. This attracts web visitors from around the world seeking more information to plan their holiday or just have a look around. Visitors may also be curious as to what shops/businesses they may want to go to when they arrive!
Therefore, businesses listed on ShopPEEK will be exposed to worldwide audience of potential tourists to Perth.The site is also translated into Japanese with other languages such as Chinese and Spanish to follow, also increasing the number of potential tourists visiting your business.
The one stop shop for shoppers and tourists!
