Tile Choice Joins Google 360 Instore Viewer

Using Google In Store Viewer, Tile Choice have been able to bring a new dimension to online shopping, you are now able to virtually walk around any one of our 15 stores using Google’s virtual tour facility. All the things our customers who visit us in-store love have been bought to you in the comfort of your own home, allowing you as customers to interact with our business like never before.

This great addition allows customers to really experience the business just like they are there. The images of the stores not only appear on the 360 degree tour but also on Google Searches, Google Maps and Google+ Local as well as being able to embed the panoramic photos onto websites. The same technology which was used for Google Street View has been used to create the 360 degree virtual tours also, Google use trusted agencies and photographers to schedule a professional, unique, non-disruptive photo-shoot.

It is believed that when customers are shopping online they will have increased confidence in the company if there are actual retail stores as well as the online facility, therefore by allowing people the option to ‘walk’ around the stores online they will be able to see the quality and expanse of products offered both in store and online and make it easy for them to take a closer look at the business.

In the future Tile choice hope to develop this feature further by adding the option to click on the products whilst walking around and adding them to the your shopping basket making the shopping process even quicker. We have give you an example below of how you can walk around any of our stores 24/7 and pick your tiles after and before our stores are open. Tile Choice are the first Tile Retailer in the UK to give you the customer this experience.
