    Overcoming Training Challenges

    Despite their esteemed position, Dragon Alliance faced a significant challenge with the traditional training methods of retail staff at their wholesale retail spaces. Relying on face-to-face training, they struggled to measure its effectiveness.

    "We focused mainly on face-to-face training, but it's really hard to quantify the ROI. It's tough to understand if people are actually absorbing the information."

    Matt Hall, Head of Brand and Sales at Dragon Alliance

    This gap in measuring engagement led the brand to explore new alternative solutions, but transitioning to online platforms had its own problems.

    "We dabbled with some online educational platforms, but they were really clunky and desktop-based. We literally saw virtually zero uptake."

    "The app-based design of ENDVR resonated with our retail staff at stores, allowing for training anytime, anywhere, and is more inline with how people consume information in this modern age."

    Matt Hall, Head of Brand and Sales at Dragon Alliance

    Seamless Integration and Successful Launch

    Integrating the ENDVR digital platform into Dragon Alliance's existing sales associate program was a smooth process with invaluable support from the ENDVR team. As pioneers in the Australian market, Dragon Alliance successfully launched digital learning and sales campaigns, setting themselves apart from competitors.

    "Even within the first year of the successful launch of learning and sales campaigns, we gained impressive traction, especially during the challenging COVID lockdowns."
