Interactive sales tool(s)
BOEN did not only get one but two interactive sales tools. As earlier mentioned, we provided BOEN with their own configurator, so the customers can sit at home and play around with the different tools, and lastly make their decision and order with specific help from BOEN. Furthermore, sales in BOEN can take the customers on a virtual tour with VR, which gives an even more bulletproof way to increase sales.
It is truly a digitalization journey. We have touched on the topic before, but once you have a high-quality 3D model, the step from CGI images to film, configuration and lastly VR is not far.
The last thing we want to present for you, is the 3D film we made in close and great collaboration with BOEN. They have a booth at Europe’s largest trade fair for the construction industry, and therefore know that it is all about making an impression. The Norwegian company BOEN ensured its success at the BAU trade fair in 2017 by getting a video, which used amazing storytelling to introduce BOEN as a brand and even introduced the new mascot!
