Virtual walkthrough of a Scottish Wedding Venue is a hit thanks to tech PR experts

TECH PR EXPERTS help a virtual tour pioneer make a splash in the media by sharing the news of how brides-to-be are able to explore wedding venues from home resulting in betrothed couples flocking back.

Newhall Estate in Carlops faced a catastrophic loss of business when it had to turn away visits as a result of lockdown. With the help of 360 Virtual Studios and Matterport technology, the venue was able to start offering virtual tours allowing couples to “visit” the venue during the pandemic.

Our team of Tech PR experts shared the story achieving a host of impressive results including:

• 11 items of coverage
• 382,921 opportunities to see
• Interview with Michelle Milnes (Founder  of Property studios and 360 Virtual Studios) and Jak Kennedy (Director at Newhall Estate) on That’s Tv.
• National coverage in The Scotsman (print and online)
• Regional and local coverage in The Edinburgh Reporter and North Edinburgh News
• Business coverage in High Growth Scotland and Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce

Our team worked with Jak Kennedy, Director at Newhall Estate, to find out his experience with 360 Virtual Studios technology and how it made a positive impact on business, leading to an increase in bookings.

The national and regional coverage secured helped bring this story to life by whilst highlighting the challenges facing hospitality sector and real life examples of how businesses are looking for new ways to survive. Whilst additionally showcasing the opportunities 360 Virtual Studio’s tech can offer businesses.

Property Studios, the parent company of 360 Virtual Studios, uses the same Matterport technology to sell houses with virtual 3D tours.

This story was one of the first successes for 360 Virtual Studios, which is rolling out a suite of new products and services for galleries, museums, events spaces and retailers – aimed at helping them recover from the pandemic which has hit the sectors disproportionately hard.
