If a picture is worth a thousand words than a 360 photo is worth a million! Why? Because a 360 photo is immersive, interactive and engaging. Not only that but Google gives preference to companies and businesses that invest into their websites and online profiles with 360 photos.

The Data is In

In a study conducted in 2014 by Google while they were trying to find what engaged customers and drew them to one business over the other they found that businesses with 360 photos drew a significant amount of traffic viewers and phone calls. It seems pretty clear the age old adage 'customer is king' seems to be truer today than ever before and when it comes to Google the customer, Your customer is king, critic and cleric. A companies success, brand and reputation is all at the mercy of the visitors to your page. Forget to clean the bathroom once in your restaurant or place of business and a quick snap shot from an unhappy customer can lead to a significant decrease in visitors. The point is clear, if you want to attract and maintain a healthy flow of customers optimizing and maintaining an online profile is a must. Whether that's your GBP (previously GMB), website, Facebook, and other social profiles. With 360 photos you can go a long way in accomplishing those goals.

Northwest Arkansas Shots

Bentonville 

Home of the very first Walmart store and museum, some would argue the very heart of NWA is Bentonville. With Walmart bringing in vendors, software engineers and leading the way in local training efforts you can understand why many people feel that way. Not only has Walmart brought in a number of ethnically diverse and rich cultures and people but Walmart's dedication to diversity and inclusion has invited other investment opportunities to the area.

Bentonville Town Square

Home to an ever-changing family friendly environment Bentonville town square hosts a Farmers Market on a regular (usually weekly but changing due to covid etc.) basis (Currently on Thursdays and Saturdays) . Home to the famous Walmart Museum where the very first Walmart was located and several events this year. For example we have the Art and Culinary Week planned for September 2-10 2022, Bentonville Lighting of the Square November 19, The Winter Market November 26 2022, and Bentonville Christmas Parade December 10 2022.

Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art

Crystal Bridges has attracted people from all over the country and world to visit and experience the museums spring fed ponds, indoor art pavilions, trails, and ever changing and updating art displays.

Museum of Native American History

The museum of Native American History is a walk through America's past where visitors are given a glimpse into what it was like for America's first inhabitants. The museum has 5 different time periods that visitors will be able to guide themselves through. These time periods will give you a taste of the ever-changing lives of Arkansas Native American inhabitants. The displays feature relics dated form over 14,000 years ago.

Bella Vista 

Established in 1917 as a resort destination Bella Vista has truly been growing and expanding, bringing in over $137 million dollars in growth in 2018 alone.

Bike Trails

Although the entire northwest Arkansas area is connected with miles upon miles of biking trails many would argue that Bella Vista is truly the hub of the area when it comes to mountain bike trails. Bella Vista alone has nearly 100 miles of five star hiking and biking trails.

Fayetteville 

When many people think of Arkansas or Northwest Arkansas to be precise the first place they may think of is Fayetteville Arkansas, and no wonder. As of 2021 Fayetteville became Arkansas second largest city out-growing Fort Smith, the previous holder of Arkansas second largest city. This growth has clearly been seen for quite some time as the Northwest Arkansas public airport, XNA, has long been associated with Fayetteville. Whenever a person may be flying into or out of NWA the city that appears on the monitors at the airports across the USA is Fayetteville Arkansas. Even though the actual airport itself is well within Bentonville city limits and is nearly 40 miles away from the Fayetteville city limits!

Rogers 

BBB - Bikes Blues and Barbeque

Before the pandemic wreaked havoc on the entire world Fayetteville Arkansas was host to the countries fastest growing annual biker rally, Bikes Blues and Barbeque. This event which began in the fall of 2000 was started as a 501c3 Non-profit rally with a purpose to benefit women, children and underserved members of the Northwest Arkansas community. Since the first BBB rally the organization has donated more than $3million to local charities. When the pandemic broke out the Fayetteville Arkansas community leaders chose to cancel the event for their area due to safety concerns. However when the organization realized that Fayetteville had actually opted to host thousands of people for a local for-profit football game the organization decided to move it's official location for their BBB rally to Rogers Arkansas.

Springdale

Located deep in the Springfield Plateau and deep in the Ozark Mountains Springdale is actually in the center of Northwest Arkansas. It is a bustling industrially important member of the NWA area. Springdale is the fourth largest city in Arkansas and boasts of the largest Marshallese community outside of the Marshall Islands. Truly one of the more culturally diverse areas in NWA Springdale has much to offer in the way of food, art, culture and entertainment.

Marshallese

As of 2021 there are more than 12,000 Marshallese living in the Springdale area. Due to a horrible experiment conducted by the US government in the 1940s (https://www.washingtonpost.com/photography/2021/01/22/marshallese-diaspora-arkansas/) the Marshallese and the US entered the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands which allowed Marshallese to relocate to the United States from their islands which had become irradiated from nuclear fallout. The Marshallese, however, were not given the right of free travel in the United States until 1986 with the Compact of Free Association. Since that time thousands have been free to leave their islands to seek better living conditions, education and access to healthcare services. Springdale is of course happy to be host to such a diverse and rich culture.
