The significant growth that characterized the development and spread of e-commerce in recent years is now leveling off. However, it doesn’t mean that people are no longer using online channels; rather, it signifies that their way of interacting with brands is evolving once again.
The large number of people returning to physical stores is seeking a firsthand experience once more. However, there’s a difference compared to the past – they now expect more regarding the quality of service.
Being able to establish a connection with the customer, fulfill their requests, and ensure they leave your store satisfied are the factors that can drastically determine long-term customer loyalty and, consequently, a significant increase in conversion, not just in terms of numbers but in quality.
Providing quality service is, obviously, proportional to the efficiency of the team working within the stores.
An insufficient, unprepared, or disorganized team would find it challenging to convert as effectively as one that optimizes time and resources to the fullest.
Consumers are not all the same. Many prefer to be assisted by staff in their purchases, while many others favor autonomy. At times, several people may require assistance, but the staff may be inadequate, or the information provided may be insufficient.
These are just some of the issues that could frequently arise in stores, which, combined with the difficulties that may arise in managing the business itself, risk undermining the perceived reliability by customers.
X-Hopper facilitates the work of employees by allowing them to optimize time and resources, alerting them when their presence is needed, providing specific information to customers that they may not possess, keeping them in touch with colleagues, and much more.
All the time saved in these activities is, of course, space to dedicate to all other tasks.
