Visual marketing franchise Top Snap International has been appointed as a Google trusted agency for its Business View services in Australia.

Google’s Business View offers a 360-degree, interactive tour of a business for consumers to virtually experience the premises before physically experiencing it in person.

According to the numbers, 97 percent internet users look for local goods and services online, while three out of four visit a business after seeing the ambience and – similarly – three out of four smartphone users have contacted a business found surfing on their mobile device.

Top Snap CEO Ralf Barschow said that he’s excited to join Google’s list of accredited agencies, helping to broaden the franchise’s portfolio.

“We are excited and proud to be accredited as a Google Trusted Agency in Australia. This strategic partnership further broadens our commercial portfolio of services into the Australian retail market and adds value to our customers and stakeholders,” Barschow said.
