VITHE FUTURE OF MARKETING IS AR
Every technology innovation opens the door for marketers to experiment with new ways to delight customers. AR has become a new marketing trend that every brand cannot ignore because of the outstanding features that this technology brings to products and services.
Officially appeared in the 90s and built based on VR (Virtual Reality), AR is considered an important step forward in the field of technology. Unlike VR, where a simulated space is created through 3-D glasses, AR allows users to see objects in the real world through an electronic device, adding virtual details to the real world. From Pokémon Go, brands pay more attention to the unlimited variation of AR when applied to different fields. Today, this technology is covering all industries and fields from education and medicine to retail, e-commerce, entertainment, etc.
Marketing with augmented reality
Augmented reality (AR) is an emerging trend in sales and marketing strategies, one that allows brands to offer customers unique experiences with the convenience of using their mobile devices.
Mobile has become one of the most important media through which consumers interact with brands and make purchasing decisions. AR provides a tool for driving sales and enhancing brand equity through mobile devices.
Strong visualization, the ability to convey ideas through images in an interactive way, is the top reason why AR is such a good application for marketing. In addition, AR also has flexibility with high variability, always innovates, awakens curiosity, and is especially highly personalized, so it creates a better and more exciting experience for customers.
Augmented reality solutions are easy to use, accessible, and increase user-brand engagement. With AR, it's easy to show customers how to use a particular product or service without having to spend hours reading manuals. Communication can also be enhanced in some specific industries, such as real estate. Buyers can make virtual visits to properties without having to travel far and waste time.
Even more interesting is that it can create a sense of ownership for some products for the user before the purchase is complete. For example, if you mostly try on some sunglasses, and you want to see them on your face through the screen of your laptop or smartphone, then you are more likely to complete the process and order them. This can happen to clothe, furniture, and even cars.

Soon, AR is expected to be a widely applied marketing method in the retail industry because of bringing new and exciting experiences to users. Besides, the combination of AR and AI (artificial intelligence) is also considered a trend for businesses. This combination brings innovative changes and helps businesses solve current difficulties.
