Retail has changed more in the last five years than in the previous 50. According to a survey of technology executives conducted by Gartner, 73% of retailers are increasing their spending on technology designed to improve in-store sales. After all, although online sales continue to grow, in-store sales are still the most important profit driver for most retailers. And don’t forget: Customers do not want to buy everything online; they like to go to brick-and-mortar shops. However, they want shopping there to be even more convenient, which poses some challenges for retailers. With Elo’s innovative mobile-to-fixed technologies, your customers will make the leap into digital transformation in retail!
That’s what consumers want
Consumers want the whole buying process to be more convenient. They want staff to inform them about products or other options and to check the availability of goods in nearby shops. They don’t want to wait long and want to have a choice of how they get their purchases delivered or whether they pick them up at the shop. In the hospitality industry, they appreciate the benefits of self-ordering to reduce waiting times.
That’s what the retail and hospitality industries need
To be perfectly equipped to meet customers’ needs, retail and hospitality staff need the right technology – so flexible that it handles a variety of tasks while still fitting in a pocket, or for heavier duties and desk work, may be docked to a touchscreen and turned into a fixed workstation. For example, a sales assistant checks the stock of goods in other shops while a customer is in the changing room. Or, after working in the warehouse, an employee creates a report after connecting the device to a screen.
Elo M50 – perfect for digital transformation!
The Android mobile device M50 from Elo is a smart alternative to tablets! It is lightweight and fits in your pocket. Yet it is also robust: The mobile computer easily withstands being dropped on the floor. It is equipped with a wide range of features, such as a 2D scanner that allows staff to scan a barcode on the spot in the shop or, thanks to the integrated payment system, lets customers pay directly in the shop without having to wait in line. The M50 is available with a broad range of accessories and pairs perfectly with Elo USB-C touchscreen monitors for transforming from a mobile to a fixed workstation – the ideal mobile-to-fixed technology for the challenges your customers face!
