The VR concept comes in handy in the video marketing by offering a 3-D dimensional experience”. Furthermore, Geer (2017), indicates that the sensation of using video marketing by using virtual reality program assists the marketers or companies to promote their concepts in the more realistic way due to the video that uses virtual reality concept brings the customer 360-degree experience. One of the example in using of virtual reality in video marketing that used by travel agency was according to Carrick (n.d.),”A few years ago, Thomas Cook, a UK-based travel agency tried out a campaign that allowed travel agents to experience certain trips in order to promote them to clients, called “Try Before You Fly.” Although this particular campaign didn’t necessarily take off, it’s a prime example of the ways that we can use VR marketing through both the B2B and B2C tourism spheres. This is a growing trend today as many companies are not only advertising the tourism bit, but also accommodations are able to share an up-close experience of what it feels like to stay in their spaces.“ Another example of the successfulness of use of virtual reality is based on Litza (2017) proposes an example of Marriot Hotels that have worked with Framestore VR studio and Relevant in making 4D tourism sensation that they called “teleporter” project which can assists clients transport from different Marriots hotel such as from Hawaii to London.

In addition, Virtual reality also affect the time production and product’s time at the market place. It assists to faster the time of production of company as well as it helps to decrease or lesser the product’s time at the market due to high demand of the customers. Once the companies give good service to its clients, the connection between companies and clients will be more harmonies and this lead to improved customers trust towards companies. By using virtual reality, companies can use many ways to deal with customers. Furthermore, when the companies have good marketing, good promotion, and have good connection with customers, surely this can increase the number of selling product of companies (Geer, 2017).
