Nashville.com continues a series today titled, "... meets Google.” The premise? Simple. We have a quick conversation with the decision makers, founders, entrepreneurs that guide an enterprise photographed by Kerry Woo. Woo serves Google as a Nashville based Google Trusted Photographer for the Google Business Photos project producing 360º Interactive Images and Point of Interest Photography.

When a local business introduces Google360 into their marketing mix, they enter a world of open invitation and transparency. Their inner workings, at least the inner workings of their work space, are exposed. We thought it would be an interesting project to feature these forward thinking businesses on Nashville’s World Wide Brand on the web, Nashville.com.

Today we meet Matthew Simms, Owner, AMP; Advocate Marketing & Print 

(N) What does your establishment find most attractive about doing business in Nashville?

(Matt) Years ago when I started this business, I knew that Nashville would be a great place to start and grow a business. Now that we are living in the largest growth spurt that Nashville has ever seen, I am thrilled to have a business up and running and posed to grow with our city. Nashville is not just a city, but also a place where people want to grow and do better for themselves than previous generations. These groups of people are my customers and it is exciting to be working with all of the developers, builders and marketers that are pushing our great city further and further up.  

(N) When you decided to do the Google 360 Virtual Tour, what was your goal? What would you want people to see when they discover your profile?

(Matt) People love to see print shops, but don’t always have time for a real tour. The Google 360 tour allows people to see all of our cool equipment and our new facility, all from the comfort of their desk. Not a lot of companies can offer this, but now...we can (and do!). We have spent the last 13 years gathering up the best equipment and now it is time to show it off!
