Want to know how to increase foot traffic in your store? Foot traffic is a critical component of a store’s success. Because more foot traffic equates to more customers and potentially more revenue. But how exactly do you do it? What are some of the techniques stores can use to increase the number of people entering the store? With customers making fewer and fewer trips, stores have to get creative to ensure they continue to attract a crowd.
Let’s take a look at the various ways UNFI Professional Services helps our customers increase and retain foot traffic in their stores.
1. Consumer Services Kiosks
Consumer service kiosks provide your shoppers with value-add services they did not even know they needed. They also provide a high level of convenience. Your shoppers can get everything they need in one convenient place – your store! Here at UNFI Professional Services, we offer turn-key, vendor-sourced kiosks that can be placed throughout your store. Curious about what kind of kiosks are available to you? Check out our current offerings.
2. Loyalty Programs
The idea behind customer loyalty programs is quite simple, yet very powerful. Your shoppers are rewarded for repeat purchases. Whether your goal is to enhance customer loyalty or boost revenue, loyalty programs provide you with a great way to increase customer satisfaction while raising foot traffic. It is quite well-known that repeat customers spend more than new customers, so why not incentivize your customers to come back for more? We offer the following customer loyalty services for stores on our network:
3. Coupon Programs
The pros of offering coupons are numerous. From introducing new customers to your store or website to marketing new product lines or selling off excess inventory, coupons help you with all of the above. Coupons can be used strategically to encourage customers to buy a new, more profitable product to help you add to your bottom line. Even your regular customers can get in the habit of waiting for coupons. That’s where we come in. We offer a free coupon management program to help you find the best way to use coupons to your store’s advantage. Learn more here:
