I would love to see them spending some of these funds on marketing their brand and product awareness in countries where people heard very little about them. I would love people to start searching for it online. Currently there is very low volume of people searching for "Matterport" in Australia(about 1000 per month). In USA there is at least 20000 or more people searching for it on Google every month. Also in USA these numbers are growing while in Australia not so much.

Buy television and web advertising to educate space owners about the future and benefit of 3D showcasing for properties. That should helped rive revenue for new MP cloud subscriptions and MSP hires.

Commercials abound by Zillow, Trulia, Homes.com, and other major realtor firms, all spotlighting why home buyers/sellers should use their platform. I'd even offer to have my studio shoot the ad spot.

Think MP should/will ever do that?

I am sure they should but I am not so sure they will. The problem is sooner or later some competitor will do it and MP will lose to them. My website is the first/second position in Google/Bing if you search for Matterport in my capital city. For the last few weeks nobody has come to my website from these two search engines. And when I run a search advertisement with them none of my ads trigered by "Matterport" or even "virtual tour".

And to do their job in marketing for product and brand awareness takes a lot of money that I believe no MSP has ever had or could afford to spend on it.

I guess if they spend just a few $100 0000s for Europe and Australia on advertising that should improve situation in these countries a lot. So far I believe it has been only mentioned on Australian TV in $1ml listing TV show. However the channel it is running on is not really popular, some people do not even have it and I do not believe it has been mentioned more than a couple of times there.

Sorry I meant to say "I guess if they spend just a few a few $100 000s..." even though a few millions would be better :-)
