Is your store well lit for  your customer
Tumblr media
Retail stores are upgraded with new technologies and advancements these days. The old models of services had their own challenges with minimized revenue growth. The need to evaluate customer behavior, enhance retail security, footfall management brought this need into the foreground. Customer experience is the key focus for retail stores as it makes a huge impact on the brand label. And that’s why it becomes important for retailers to know if their store is well lit to maximize their customer experience.
With the arrival of technologies like IoT and AI, every other user is connected with smart devices and they expect the same from businesses. Retail stores overcame some big challenges in store management with IoT. Let us explore some details on how IoT can help retail stores enhance the customer experience-

IoT devices also help retailers track customer’s movement, of how much time an individual customer spent on a certain section, etc. to recognize what their customers need and drive sales effectively. Retailers get more accurate data and insights into customer behavior through IoT devices.
Stock management: The in-store stock management monitored by employees proves to be inaccurate and off-time mainly. IoT devices and sensors monitor both the inside stock and the ones that are on display to provide exact data and analysis, giving on-time notifications for easy management of stocks and avoiding unnecessary time wastage.
Supply chain management: Right from the moment an inventory leaves the manufacturing plant and till the time it is delivered at its final destination, the retailer needs to keep a track of it. IoT backed sensors help to track the goods through transportation, gives the ability to check the condition at any given moment whether they are kept at a suitable temperature or not, etc.
Self-checkouts: Long queues at checkouts disappoint customers and sometimes refrain from shopping. Automated checkouts enable customers to process their own purchases through sensors that read their tags and make payments directly from the customer’s linked payment app. It saves a lot of time and crowd management for the retail stores.
Security: Retail security is one of the main issues for retailers to avoid in-store theft or shoplifting. Smart IP cameras installed in the stores monitor every corner and smart sensors connected with retailer’s mobile device, alerts or sends notification through call/SMS in case of any breach. Accessible IoT devices allow monitoring the store from the comfort of one’s office.  Retailer can track hygiene management of his store and the adherence of workers to the dress code compliance which adds value to the brand.
Footfall management: Customer footfall management with the help of cloud based intelligent video analytics provides insights into the peak hour shopping analysis, to know the number of people who shopped at a particular time, classifying the different segments of these shoppers, details about their preferred shopping items, time spent at a particular stock in store. It also helps retailers track productivity of their stores at different locations to know the exact revenue from each store and find out reasons for the low productivity of a certain store. Installing IoT’s people counting facility gives retailers a competitive edge.
An upgraded store provides retailers with some actionable insights into customer behavior, enhancing customer experience. Overcoming these challenges will provide retailers a competitive edge in the market. IoT in the retail market is predicted to reach over $30 billion by 2024- Gartner. Get ready to transform your business with IoT.
