How to Make More Money with Matterport MatterTags

Hi All,

Annotating a Matterport Space using MatterTags is an opportunity to make more money.

With MatterTags, you can increase and activate engagement by adding:

1. a clickable link (website or other Matterport Spaces 3D Tour)
2. a video (hosted on YouTube or Vimeo for example) – within the 3D Tour experience
3. aerial video
4. a collection of 360º photos (hosted on Round.Me for example)
5. eCommerce (embed an product for sale via an Amazon Associates account)
6. a downloadable PDF
7. "jumps" to large spaces
8. audio
9. photo gallery (hosted on Flickr, Instagram, SmugMug and other hosting platforms)
10. live streaming
11. Google Street View
12. Archilogic 3D model
13. content from 400 platforms via embed.ly
14. take the elevator to a different floor (add MatterTags in the elevator)
15. color code

Thought-Starters for Pricing MatterTags

1. Include up to X MatterTags in a bundle
2. freemium model: first X MatterTags per MatterPort Space free; then X tier of up to 10
3. quote by the project – shoot fee, plus monthly or annual hosting
4. Think about Spaces where MatterTags add huge value

Thought-Starts for MatterTags Rich Matterport Spaces

1. Museums
2. Retail Stores
3. Restaurants (table numbers; make reservation)
4. Deeper Dive for Museum and School Children

Marcia Jessen with @Property3dNZ in Auckland, New Zealand writes in the We Get Around Network Forum (prior to MatterTags including color options):

The idea is the kids go into the gallery look around then they go back to the classrooms where they then supply each child with an iPad. The kids can then virtually go back into the gallery and look for particular items etc to complete the educational tasks that are set.
They have varying age groups though so different things are taught to different groups. Consequently we have had to create multiple copies of the scans (and pay the hosting for these) where as if they had the option for different coloured mattertags they would be able to have the different age groups look for that particular colour!

They are looking at making these educational programme's available to other schools outside of the Auckland region so to have those different colours would again help teachers easily identify what points of interest are applicable to their age group of kids.

Pro Tips

1. Use parameters to open a link in a new tab
2. Hide links within a Space to be MLS compliant

Additional Thoughts

1. How else might you annotate a Matterport Space 3D Tour?
2. Other business opportunities for MatterTags?
3. How else might you charge for MatterTags?

Now we just need Matterport to implement MatterTags in CoreVR ...

How else might you use MatterTags to make more money?

Best,

Dan

@DanSmigrod What do you mean by "live streaming"?

Is it possible to live stream within a Mattertag's hyperlink?

Yes. You can embed a live video stream within a Matterport Space via Embed.ly

For example, Matterport Rich Media MatterTags supports Embed.ly apps that include the following live-stream apps:

1. YouTube
2. UStream
3. LiveStream
(And, many TV Networks such as CCN, Discovery Channel)

How might you mash-up a Matterport Spaces 3D Tour + livestream via MatterTags + Embed.ly ...?)

Imagine whomever gets to scan CNN, Discovery Channel, FOX News, and more - gets to pitch, and we'll live stream your channel within the 3D Tour.

Best,

Dan

Hi All,

In light of the discussion yesterday (18 July 2017) in this We Get Around Network Forum discussion, how to compete again low price providers is more relevant than ever.

Consider potential clients where MatterTags 'Matter' ...
