From Side Hustle to Full-Time: Building a Profitable Virtual Tour Business

Maybe you started filming 360 content on weekends. Maybe you made a few bucks helping a realtor friend. But now you’re thinking bigger. Virtual tours are more than a side gig—they’re a real business opportunity. Here’s how to take it to the next level.

Step 1: Define Your Niche and Offer

Don’t try to do it all. Choose a focus—real estate, fitness centers, schools, retail—and tailor your services. Decide what you offer:

• Simple 360 walkthroughs
• Interactive features with pop-ups or guided navigation
• Branding customization

Step 2: Price for Profit

Build packages that reflect the time, effort, and value of your work. Factor in:

• Shooting time and travel
• Editing and post-production
• Hosting and analytics

A three-tier pricing system (basic, standard, premium) gives flexibility while encouraging upsells.

Step 3: Build Your Brand and Pipeline

• Create a Portfolio: Use TillerXR tours you’ve made to showcase your capabilities.
• Network Locally: Attend industry meetups and reach out to professionals in your target niche.
• Use Social Proof: Ask happy clients for testimonials and reviews.
