AR in retail: 7 questions to ask before you start

Seven questions to answer before an augmented reality project, from whether it is a gimmick to whether your audience is ready for it.

Inside

What it covers

Augmented reality lets a brand into a customer's physical world, which makes it a natural fit for retail marketing. But asking the right questions at the start of an AR project saves time, money and a lot of development headaches later.

4 Roads has devised and delivered AR projects for clients including Hitachi and Philips, and this guide shares that experience: seven questions, each explained, and a recap to work through.

  • Is your use case a gimmick?
  • Does your campaign have longevity?
  • When should you use something else?
  • How do you get leadership buy-in?
  • Does the campaign need to be an app?
  • What action are you trying to motivate?
  • Is your audience primed for AR?
