How Nigerian Brands are Leveraging AR for Customer Engagement - Omoseye Alebiosu - 08-04-2024

How Nigerian Brands are Leveraging AR for Customer Engagement
While the full potential of Augmented Reality (AR) is still being explored in Nigeria, several brands have begun to harness its power to enhance customer engagement. Here's a breakdown of how:
1. Interactive Product Visualization:
  • Furniture and Home Decor: Brands like IKEA (though international, applicable to Nigeria) have pioneered this. Customers can visualize how furniture would look in their homes before purchase.  
  • Fashion and Beauty: Local fashion brands can allow customers to virtually try on clothes, accessories, or makeup, reducing return rates and boosting confidence in purchases.
2. Gamification and Brand Experience:
  • Food and Beverage: Creating AR games or interactive experiences tied to products can be engaging. For instance, a beverage brand could create an AR scavenger hunt that leads to rewards or exclusive content.
  • Telecommunications: AR can be used for interactive mobile games, rewarding users with data or airtime.
3. Educational and Informative Content:
  • Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG): AR can be used to provide product information, nutritional facts, or usage instructions in an interactive way.  
  • Pharmaceuticals: AR can be used to provide information about medications, dosage, and side effects in a visually appealing and easy-to-understand format.  
4. Marketing Campaigns and Promotions:
  • Financial Services: Banks can use AR for interactive campaigns, such as virtual tours of branches or financial education games.
  • Automotive: Car dealerships can offer virtual test drives or showcase car features in an immersive way.
5. Customer Service and Support:
  • Electronics: AR can be used for remote troubleshooting, allowing customers to visually guide technicians through issues.
  • Retail: AR-powered virtual assistants can provide product information, store locations, and answer customer queries.
Examples of Potential Nigerian Brands Leveraging AR:
  • Fashion: Adebayo Jones, Lisa Folawiyo
  • Beauty: Zaron Cosmetics, House of Tara
  • FMCG: Coca-Cola Nigeria, Unilever Nigeria
  • Telecommunications: MTN Nigeria, Airtel Nigeria
  • Financial Services: Guaranty Trust Bank, Zenith Bank
Challenges and Opportunities:
While AR offers immense potential, there are challenges such as internet connectivity, smartphone penetration, and the cost of developing AR experiences. However, as technology improves and becomes more accessible, the opportunities for Nigerian brands to leverage AR will only grow.  
By investing in AR technology and creating engaging experiences, Nigerian brands can differentiate themselves, build stronger customer relationships, and drive sales.
