Lets review how we have progressed versus the below partner learns...

Let's tackle the 'how' we have addressed each of these points:

Heads in Headsets

We have purchased 15 demo units 

  • These have been used for staff education and Testing throughout August 
  • In helping design and test our Mesh Environment
  • 10 will be used for target accounts on a 1/2 week loan to demo programme

Numbers don't lie...

  • Research has identified the Microsoft Work Trends "Performance Formula" 
  • Employee Engagement x Employee Productivity = Company Performance

The New Performance Equation in the Age of Ai (LP)

  • We have researched four different studies to identify how Meta, Mesh and Ai fix genuine Enterprise issues and identified the key research/numbers that move:
     
    • Employee Engagement  
    • Employee Productivity
    • Company Performance

Work Trend Index

The full set of compelling numbers as to why Meta, Mesh and Ai are such a compelling solution to fix the enterprise issues of today, we will reveal in the research, blogs, landing pages, social media, Mesh & Meta demonstration rooms.

However, here are two big numbers that shine a torch on the problem the combined solution is addressing:

Employee Engagement how bad is the problem?

The Gallup report revealed, whilst employee engagement is rising the global average in 2024, is that just 23% of employees are engaged. 

The UK, however, is ranked 33 out of 38 in Europe at a very poor 10% of employees are engaged.

(see the extracts from "The State of the Global Workplace" below)

Gallup Report Global Employee Engagement numbers:
Gallup Report Global Employee Engagement numbers per European country:
Europe Employee Engagement Index (Social Media)

The size of the prize is huge

A 1% increase in employee engagement is worth $46,000 per employee!

And that is just one side of the Performance Equation, so how does Meta Quest 3 and Microsoft Mesh deliver a solution to employee engagement?

Evidence from the PWC and Muster University Study on Immersive meeting effectiveness v Video/Teams/Zoom 2D meetings reveals how:-

  • There was a 58% gain in Team bonding / closeness in Immersive meetings - removing the detachment of Hybrid or remote working
  • 16% gain in communication effectiveness 
  • 15% gain in meeting comfort 
  • 11% gain in communication effectiveness

Percentages - Scaled Business Agility  (LP Body)-1

So, Immersive Meetings increase communication, the sense of belonging to a team, as well as better workshop outcomes.

Leaders today struggle with remote workers, hybrid workers recreating that tight knit team, team spirit that brings stellar levels of performance.

They know "bringing everyone back to the office" is unpopular, however, they want that tight team, and team performance.

The Meta Quest 3 & Microsoft Mesh combined solution delivers on that tight knit team, solving problems together, understanding each others skills and playing to each others strengths. However there is far more...


Technology however has the power to upgrade the human experience 

Broadly we are proposing from the research the following:

  • We remove Office workers, Hybrid workers, Remote workers and commuting, substituting it with an Immersive Meetings Policy, (IMP)
  • We cut the Enterprise carbon footprint created by commuting, delivering a huge CSR initiative in the same move.
  • We move communication in Town Hall's moving from 2d to 3D immersive meetings, to gain the benefits outlined by PWC and Munster
    • For Town Halls where Microsoft and Meta can handle meetings of 320 today.
    • We use Meta and Mesh rooms for high impact recruitment, induction and onboarding.
      • Recruiting people who probably know the power of immersive experiences as they have had "gaming experience exposure at home"
      • Imagine recruiting folk interviewing them in the company Microsoft Mesh 3D recruitment room
      • Your company's vision, the leadership team, corporate videos, key milestones are all in the room
      • The same solution can be used for Onboarding new employees, welcoming them to the organisation
      • No need to come to the office every day, they Teleport into that day's induction room, meet peers colleagues and learn.

In another PWC and Munster University Report they looked at the impact of immersive meetings and training.

    • We can utilise customised Microsoft Mesh environments for Training to unlock the 64% savings v classroom training. (SEE REPORT) 
    • Below is a summary of the impact of Meta Quest 3 mixed reality devices when used with partner Microsoft, Mesh Rooms. 
Human OutcomesImpact with Technology

 

We run with a Teleporting in and Commuting out - Messaging campaign addressing the root cause of a key Hybrid, Remote worker decision they make every day:

"Is it worth it going into the office?"

We further propose that we give the commuting time back to employees to upgrade their life with:

  • A healthier, sport-filled life 
  • More Family or Wellbeing time 

Human Upgrade Productivity

We are not going to cover all the research in this plan however, it will be revealed in the 90 day campaign starting September 14th. 


The Enterprise Research reports we have drawn from is extensive, a flavour of which is in the panel below.

PPC Campaign Forecast 

Monthly

The PPC Forecast is exactly that, and has a wide range:

Low is our agency forecast based on a high £2.12 cost per click

472 Clicks which we are predicting 10% enter the pipeline

47 Marketing Qualified Leads

23 Would proceed to a Meta Quest and Mesh Demo

80% would convert ie 18 deals a month

6 headsets per order 

113 units is our anticipated rate of sale a month

Caveat:

That is a forecast without understanding if these metrics and assumptions from MQL to Deal are correct.  

Known Unknowns 

As yet we believe a safe assumptions is a 90 day pipeline gestation period. Or Enquiry to deal period.

That may or may not prove accurate. One thing for sure is over the 1st 90 days we will get insight into that enquiry to deal period. 

Other Factors we will find out are:

  • The impact of any Connect 2024 product announcements (Rumoured MetaQuest 3S)
  • The Firewall issue being removed from Mesh demo's is significant (July when Mesh moved to a Teams Communication infrastructure)
  • The impending guest facility ie Mesh no longer being an internal "On Tennant/Domain" tool is huge, with Guest access. 
  • We will also launch the Quest Enterprise Shop next weekend 27th September (subject to testing) 

New Meta Quest Enterprise Shop

  • See below the Images which are still draft (see inaccuracies on GST v VAT)
  • At the Bottom of each page are "Associated Products"

See the images of the shop in its draft stage, target launch date for the new shop 27th September.

  • This shop will have advanced and sophisticated checkout "re-marketing"
  • As well as Google GA4 Tagging to measure performance precisely.

  • Curious Intent traffic - drive employee engagement & productivity 
  • Specific Mid Company size - CEO,CTO,CFO,HR,Training roles

3-2

Messages

A series of Impactful "tease" emails will take the personas to education pages that will explain Why? Meta Quest, Quest for Business and Microsoft Mesh solve their respective challenges.

The research and ROI statistics tell a compelling story

Timing messaging is:-

"strike now, or do not enjoy the savings for the whole of the 2025 budget"

" Move now before the competition does"

We will use Video to try and explain 3D Meetings to an audience used to, 2D screens.

 

This is a playful nod in the direction of that challenge.
