ENHANCE YOUR GOOGLE BUSINESS LISTING
In this day and age, Google plays an extremely important role in marketing a business. On average, Google processes 40,000 searches per second. Positioning your business at the top of the search results for your particular industry will result in a significant influx of potential customers looking at your business online.
A large part of these search results are tied to Google Maps, where your business is physically located, and your Google My Business (GMB) listing. Just recently, Google Street View has expanded to include 360 degree virtual tours of the insides of businesses. So, adding a 360º photo or virtual tour of your business to your GMB listing is just one more way you can edge out your competition. These high resolution 360º immersive experiences allow people to feel what it is like to stand inside your business before they arrive.

When someone searches for a business on a mobile phone, the first image that is displayed is usually the 360º image attached to that listing. Google is weighing these images higher and placing the businesses attached to these photos in front of more customers.
Aside from being put on Google’s “good” list, the other main benefit of having a 360º experience paired with your listing is the simple fact that you will stand out. It is another opportunity to create more engagement and interaction with your potential customers.

hiring a trusted photographer
for your business
So not every business is going to take 10 minutes to shoot, upload, and connect the virtual tour, but the process is very simple and will cause very little interruption in your work day. We like to do our photo shoots before or after business hours in order to fully capture your business without customers and employees showing up in the shots.
We will then process the photos, upload them to Google Street View, and connect them to your business listing. Depending on the complexity of the photo shoot, this can take anywhere from 1 day to 1 week. You will also be able to take these 360 degree photos and share them with your email list or embed them on your website.
We use top of the line, Google-recommended 360 degree cameras along with low-profile tripods, which helps to make the camera almost completely invisible in the photos. The cameras are designed with double sided synchronized lenses that can capture everything, including the camera itself, so the low-profile tripod is a key factor in the photo shoots.
Show off your business like never before, deck out your Google My Business listing, and edge out your competition with a high-quality photo shoot by a Google Trusted Photographer.

HOW MUCH DOES A PHOTOSHOOT COST?
Great question! Each business is different, so every photoshoot is going to be different. We base our prices on several factors:
-How many photosphere shots need to be taken (Google guidelines are 3 ft apart indoors and 10 ft apart outdoors, with a maximum of 100 photos inside the building)
-The floor plan of the business
-How many still shots you desire (if any)
-Do you want the photo rights to the virtual tour?
-Do you want your virtual tour hosted anywhere other than Google's mapping properties so you can use it on
your website and in other marketing efforts?
Our photoshoots start from $275 and go up based on the above factors. We do offer special discounts throughout the year as well as discounts on multiple locations.
Each location will be quoted before the photoshoot is scheduled. Payment must be made at the time of the photoshoot.
