Interactive touch screen kiosks have grown in popularity over recent years. Reduced costs and convenience for retailers have led companies to install touch-screen kiosks in their stores. This allows customers to perform common tasks such as checking out, paying and filing, at a touch of a button. The touch screen kiosk is also useful as a sales promotion tool.
Reduce Business Costs. With the advancements made in the electronic world, online shopping has not only made the shopping experience convenient, quick and fast; it has also altogether personalized it, wherein different online retailers needing consumers to log into an account on which all their personal details are stored and further search/buy history is stored. However, most of these online shopping sites have kiosks installed in their store, where consumers can perform these tasks. The touch screen kiosks have revolutionized the retail industry and reduced costs dramatically. Instead of having sales people to stand around a customer waiting to purchase something, they can now simply ask the customer if he needs for what they need and then offer the items on display in order to satisfy the customer’s need.
Increase Productivity. With interactive touch screen kiosks, consumers can browse through available products or browse by category. This gives the buyers a lot more time to look at the products, consider their buying decision and then make the purchase. Also, if the consumer chooses not to purchase anything from the kiosk, the system will still allow the shopper to go back to the kiosk and browse through the different options available, if she wishes. This way, the buying experience is less frustrating and less expensive.
Improve Customer Relationships. By providing the opportunity to purchase breakfast cereal without leaving the house, touch screen kiosks allow customers to improve their purchasing experience and relationships with businesses. Most businesses feel that if a customer knows he can get breakfast cereal for free or at a very low cost, he will be more likely to buy again or refer his friends and family to the business. Interactive touch screen kiosks allow this to happen because customers know that they don’t have to wait in line or drive through traffic just to get the items they want.
Increase Customer Sales. When people are presented with a choice, most of them will choose to buy something rather than nothing. In a passive manner, the interactive touch screen kiosks provide the opportunity for people to purchase breakfast cereal for free. Then, as they touch the screen and select the product, it is shipped directly to their homes. Thus, the business is providing the services for the benefit of the consumers, while also incurring a small advertising expense.
Reduce Operational Costs. A touch screen kiosk requires minimal staff to operate. There is no additional equipment to purchase, no personnel to hire, and no additional space to rent or store. This allows a business owner to pass operational costs onto the customers and reduce overall operational costs.
Provide Value to Customers. Installing an interactive touch screen kiosk at one of your company’s locations will allow you to provide a number of different services for your customers. First, customers can obtain information at any time, from breakfast cereal to the latest in technology. Second, customers can make purchases from the kiosk and have it delivered directly to their homes. Finally, the kiosk provides customers with access to the company’s website which offers a number of information, including company information, maps, directions, and much more.
As you can see, a touch screen kiosk is a very cost efficient method of providing customer service. Not only does it save the company money, but it also saves valuable employee time.
