When a Display is Just Decoration, You Lose Engagement
If your VM is only for show, itās missing its full potential. No interaction = no participation. Customers scroll past, donāt pause, donāt share, and donāt buy. Youāve invested in propsābut not in impact.
Interactive Displays That Invite Emotion, Action, and Sharing
At Samtop, we design interactive, scalable, paper-based VM kits that let your customers participate. Write a message. Take a photo. Build a bouquet. These are more than activationsātheyāre brand love in motion.
ā Summary: Why Interactive Displays Win Motherās Day
- 40% more in-store engagement when VM includes interactivity
- Message walls, photo arches, and flower-building stations = memory-making
- Paper-based props = low logistics cost, high emotional ROI
- Scalable formats for flagship, boutique, and counter tiers
