The relationship began with a simple request for one Google Street View for a barber shop 500m away from the P3D office. From there the Barbershop Company has grown from strength to strength, resulting in a further 18 stores to open their doors and with that, 18 more Google Street View tours for P3D to capture.

From Millwater to Hamilton to Tauranga, P3D have created Google Street Views to showcase the unique Barbershop Co brand. A key reason for this is to ensure that the services are easy to find on Google Maps. As a new business, visibility is key;  along with a map pin, the ability for new customers to be able to step inside and view the Barbershop via a Google Virtual Tour prior to visiting is very beneficial in attracting new customers

We believe there is no better way to advertise your business digitally than with 360 imagery. Whether it’s an intensive or standard walkthrough, having this imagery available to the public really helps attract new business. Barbershop Co definitely realised this early on and are reaping the rewards of having Google 360 imagery at each new store location.
