What Can Mobile Assistants Do?
There are good reasons why high-end retailers equip their staff with a Mobile Assistant. These hand-held devices change the game when loaded with the right software.
Service
Customers take remembered levels of service into consideration when future purchases are made. If staff cannot answer questions about a product or are unable to perform simple tasks like an update of account information it makes an impression. Unfortunately, that impression is not good.
If, on the other hand, the staff is efficient and competent in meeting needs, that remembered experience is very good.
