DISCOVER RETAIL USE-CASES

24sessions-client-logos-2021_v2

Some sales conversations simply ask for more personal advice than via chat. But what if you sell through an online webshop? Or if the pandemic has temporarily shut down physical stores?

For high-value products or 1-on-1 sales advice, online is not always an ideal channel, lowering average transaction value and putting a strain on revenue. And some more private or specific questions from customers deserve full attention from a sales consultant - in a more personal environment than a busy store during opening hours.

There is a middle way for these higher-value or more personal sales conversations. Take the in-store experience online with video calling. With our technology made for Customer Interaction, your sales advisors connect with customers and prospects real-time. Video calls are just as personal as live advice, but offer online convenience. Customers get to book a video appointment themselves, or start one instantly from your webshop or chat.

Ways to use video calling in Retail

Video calling is really powerful in high value retail conversations. These are examples of use-cases for Retail:

  1. Sales

    From lead generation to qualifying and closing new deals. Thanks to automated booking or requesting an instant call, video calling is a strong way to engage your prospects. Sales agents love it too, because they can schedule & add video calls to their calendar without any manual work.
  2. Advice

    Offer fast and personal product advice whenever customers need more in-depth information. Thanks to features like screen sharing and co-browsing your agents are well equipped to inform customers remotely.

  3. Customer Service

    Get misunderstandings about your products out of the way, and quickly answer more complex questions from clients. Offer an instant video call with one of your agents - both during a purchase and later, to teach customers how to use your product.

  4. Digital Showroom

    Create a digital showroom experience by demonstrating products, new customizations or models at moments that fit your customer’s schedule. A personal experience online creates higher conversions.

  5. Kiosk

    Connect customers to an advisor in a Contact Center or another store. Through the instant video connection, you still provide fast and personal service if all store staff is occupied or customers have a specific question.
