The era of mobility is here, and it’s been slowly changing the way we do business for several years now. Mobile solutions are everywhere, and can be implemented in a variety of creative ways to help improve your business model and overall customer satisfaction. So, you want to start utilizing tablets to help drive your business, because you feel they will be a good investment. How can you get the most out of your buck, while still protecting your investment? Here’s why enclosures are the right move for you.
1) Protect Your Investment – You spend quite a significant amount of your budget on putting tablets in your store, but you don’t want them to be damaged due to being dropped and mishandled. It’s impossible to plan for everything, and accidents do happen. To mitigate this, you can utilize an enclosure that allows for you to fasten the device in a prominent area, such as your desk, service counter, or merchandise table. You can even utilize a stand that can be moved around within your store. With this kind of enclosure, there are fewer reasons to worry about your tablets being dropped or mishandled.
2) Provide quick and efficient interactions with customers – Customers can become frustrated if they have to wait in line to ask a question regarding the price for an item or the availability of a product. You can only have so many associates working at one time. If customers were able to scroll through your pricing and availability of items, or even order items right on the tablet, it will provide for a much better customer experience, and free up your associates to perform other gainful tasks to help your business succeed. A durable and reliable enclosure can ensure that these devices will remain intact during customer interactions, regardless of how roughly they are handled. Additionally, enclosures can help tether the tablet to a location, cutting down on theft from customers.
3) Draw Attention With a Splash of Color – Your eye most likely gravitated towards this bullet as soon as you started reading this. Most tablets are black or white, which are not so noticeable, but what if you were able to draw attention to them by adding some color? You can do this by utilizing colored enclosures. There are several colors available such as blue, red, yellow, and green. These colors will draw more attention to them and can provide a more customer friendly experience when paired with your store’s theme. In addition, these colors can be used to help with organization; for example, red tablets belong in one section of the store, while perhaps yellow ones are assigned to a different section.
4) Prevent against theft – You’ve spend a significant amount of money on tablets. You don’t want them walking out the door. With an enclosure, you can rest easy knowing that your investment is safe and right where you last left it. Whether you’re concerned about employee theft or a customer with sticky fingers, these enclosures can help keep your tablet tethered and safe. This means you can worry about more important things, such as being profitable and paying the bills.
Utilizing a tablet can be an engaging and meaningful experience for a customer. Utilizing an enclosure for that tablet will not only heighten the customer’s experience, it will offer you the assurance you want to concentrate on your company’s more important endeavors. Before you upgrade your business with tablets, be sure to check out all the enclosure options available to select the right ones for your investment.
