Key Takeaways
- Customer Alignment Matters: VR doesn’t cater to a specific age group, gender, or income range.
- Operational Best Practices: Consider what type of VR suits your operational capabilities. Whether it’s an arcade setup, a hybrid attraction, or a full-scale free-roam experience, align your choice with your staffing levels and technical abilities.
- Diverse Pricing Models: There are various means of charging for your VR attractions. From ala carte options to mini-bundling and premium packages, finding the model that aligns with your business goals and customer expectations is key to success.
- Training Your Staff: Allow your staff to play and experience VR firsthand. Gamify the training process with in-house competitions and tournaments to build enthusiasm and expertise among your team.
