New Year’s Resolutions: How 3D in eCommerce Helps Customers Succeed

Written by Nextech3D.ai | Dec 26, 2022 2:00:00 PM

As we rush headlong into 2023, many people will be looking for ways to make the New Year better than the current one. Resolving to do a better job of this or that is how many people choose to frame the coming year. But while many are called, few are chosen for success.  

This year, an estimated 38 percent of US adults will make resolutions. Among the 18-34-year-old crowd, that number jumps to nearly 60 percent! The most common resolution is to live a healthier lifestyle. Fifty percent of people say they will do this by losing weight and exercising more, yadda, yadda, yadda.  

With more people switching to Goblin Mode every day, it’s easy to understand why the success rate for keeping resolutions remains so woefully low. How low, you ask? Almost a quarter of people drop their resolutions in the first week, only 36 percent make it past the first month, and just 9 percent of people actually keep their resolutions through the entire year.  

At this point, you may be asking yourself, “OK, people are lousy at keeping resolutions. What does that have to do with me?” If you are a sporting goods, cookware, or fashion retailer, the answer could be “a lot!” You can provide the equipment and motivation people need to keep working toward their goals of getting into shape, eating better, and feeling better in their new clothes.  

Through the magic of 3D models and augmented reality on your website, you can engage and excite your customers with the promise of new things: the exercise equipment that matches their fitness goals, cookware and utensils to make cooking (and eating) enjoyable, and new outfits to replace their out-of-fashion attire.  

Tools like ARitize 3D Configurator allow people to choose exactly the colors and textures that will make them feel good about the outfits they are wearing and the equipment they are purchasing. ARitize Decorator helps neutralize one of the biggest issues people face: where the heck are they going to put this thing?!?! Decorator allows true-to-scale 3D models to appear right where your customers want them so they can know with confidence that it will fit. 

Making these models may sound complicated, but it isn’t. Nextech AR Solutions’ technology does not require design or technical expertise. A few files or photos are all our AI needs to create the immersive experiences customers crave - and give them the strength to carry on. 

People want to be their best, it’s a natural instinct. People strive to be their best, but it’s a real challenge. You can be there to support them, to help them maintain their resolve and end the year as they began, filled with high hopes and a positive attitude!
