3 reasons why this feature can make a big difference in retail

How do you make sure that all the stores know what to do and how to do it? Our developers are constantly working to optimise the tools that will make this process easier.

 

Our clients love the fact that they can attach manuals and guidelines for any situation imaginable. Whether you work in Marketing, Visual Merchandising, Operations or any department remote to the stores, you have an outspoken need to make sure that the great plan you and your management colleagues made is carried out in all its glory.

So what else is new?

To make this feature even more valuable to all our users, our development team added a tile to the app homescreen from where the user can access the files relevant to his/her specific area of responsibility. 

The reasons why this feature makes a big difference for retailers: 
  1. Your frontline staff, area managers, store managers or anyone else can easily consult the guidelines or other instructional documents available in the file library.
  2. As an administrator, you decide which documents are accessible to secure the detailed understanding thus avoiding any versioning issues that may cause inconsistency in practice.
  3. As a retail business, you will quickly discover that keeping all currently relevant files in one place and controlling who has access to what is one of the main keys to efficient operations and the resulting consistency that any great brand depends on.

 

It’s up to you what to place in the ‘Archive’, however as an inspiration our clients are using it for e.g.:  

  • Visual Merchandising guidelines
  • Campaign promotions guidelines
  • Health & Safety instructions
