The Challenge with Typical Product Content is that it’s Not Engaging, and Impossible to Maintain
Competition requires embracing innovative technologies that enhance productivity, efficiency, and customer engagement. For manufacturers and their distribution partners, enhancing content with photorealistic and interactive visuals increases engagement and drives conversions. If you’re not delivering the right kind of content, you’re missing out on conversions and falling behind the competition.
HackeyStack Labs recently published a 2024 survey of B2B business leaders from over 50 companies, finding that the average deal requires 220 touchpoints from initial search to close. While that number is staggering, it proves the importance of delivering engaging content that influences buyers across channels. The answer lies in a powerful shift – transforming standard product information into dynamic, interactive visual content for your customers – built directly from your existing CAD assets.
