Brownies Pro & Sport Hobbies

Google Business View Virtual Tour

Brownies Pro & Sport Hobbies is located in Staten Island, New York City. Brownies is a family run hobby store of some fame globally and has been in operation for over 45 years. The location is small, but they literally stock everything you could possibly want for a long list of hobbies. The walls, shelves, and ceilings are completely lined with products to the point that there is no wasted space in the entire store. The virtual tour provided by Google Business View really lets you look into every nook of the store and look at all the different items Brownies has in stock. In this little store, seeing everything could literally take hours.

Of particular interest are all the flying model airplanes hanging from the ceiling. Every single one of them has been flown and every one has a story, with some dating back to the 1950’s. This store is truly a piece of American History, and what better way to show it off than with Google Business View! We at Black Paw Photo are fans of all things that fly. We run our own website dedicated to RC Drones and Multirotors and Anthony is a CFII with various other flight ratings.

A walk through with Google’s virtual tour allows visitors to view each and every item on the shelves here. To truly be immersed in the experience, it is best to click the full screen icon in the upper right of the screen. If you want to read the boxes, don’t forget to zoom in with the + and – controls in the upper left. It would probably take quite some time to take in everything this unique space has to offer. If you’re a hobbyist in New York City you can come on down and visit for a real tour! If your are in other parts of the world, then Google Business View has you covered with this 360 degree virtual tour.

GTS Island Auto Parts Inc.

Google Business View Virtual Tour

GTS Island Auto Parts Inc. is an automobile parts store located in Staten Island, New York. GTS opted for Google business photos to enhance their Google+ Local Page and help them stand out better in Google search results (SEO). With a small physical storefront, many of GTS Auto Part’s new customers have an easier time finding them online than they do seeing the location when they drive by. Google Business View helps GTS strengthen their internet marketing and show customers that despite their small appearance on the outside, GTS Island Auto Parts has a huge selection inside! By walking through their small store in the virtual tour you can see that they efficiently use every square inch of the space available at their location. It is also apparent that the majority of their space in the back of the store is used to stock auto parts in a warehouse style fashion, with shelving reaching from floor to ceiling.

Google Business View helps GTS Island Auto Parts in Staten Island show their customers that even though they appear small on the outside, they are able to hold a huge stock of parts and accessories inside their location. The photos help to separate GTS from their competition and give customers one more reason to walk through their front door. GTS Auto Parts was among the first businesses in Staten Island to add Google Business View to their Google+ Local Page.

Qualitech Computers

Google Business View Virtual Tour

Qualitech Computers is located in Staten Island, New York City. Qualitech is one of the Island’s top computer repair centers and specializes in computer repairs, virus removal, networking, laptop repairs, and custom built computer systems. They also offer product procurement and training services for small to mid-sized companies. Qualitech has a really friendly and well trained staff, and is truly a pleasure to do business with. Adding Google Business View was an effective way for this computer repair company to improve online marketing for their services.

Being in the IT business, Qualitech does much of its work at offsite locations. Despite that fact, they do run a small retail shop where they sell various computer related items and perform all repairs — walk ins are always welcome! Qualitech chose to add Google Business View because they wanted to be early adopters of the latest features Google has to offer, and because most of their customers find them online. It also helps them appear differently in Google Search and they are the first computer repair company in New York City to add Business Photos to their Google+ Local Page.
