Improve the Shopping Experience – Video from NRF 2012

Posted by Erin Hodges On January - 25 - 2012

As we mentioned last week, NRF 2012 was quite an exciting event and attendance was overwhelming.  DecisionPoint joined Motorola Solutions in their partner booth and experienced greater than expected traffic, as retailers assembled to learn more about the latest mobile technologies and solutions.  This great video from the floor of the NRF 2012 EXPO Hall features Brian Bukowski, Motorola Solutions VP of North American Sales, discussing the theme during NRF and how retailers can improve the shopping experience with mobile solutions.

During a recent webinar, presented by Retail TouchPoints, titled “The Road to In-Store Mobile Commerce,” Steve Rowen, of RSR Research, shared key findings from the company’s 2011 edition of its annual store benchmark survey.  Survey findings showed that 70% of respondents have utilized technology-enabled touch points for store associates for more than a year, a significant increase from 49% in 2010.  And 25% of respondents said they now are providing store managers with mobile technology-enabled touch points, up from 14% in 2010.

According to Rowen, mobile technology presents a prime opportunity for retailers to increase foot traffic and drive in-store engagement.  In fact, 73% of retailers said “deeper customer engagement that builds loyalty through mobile channels is the most valuable opportunity we have today.”

In-Aisle Price Label Printing for Retailers

Posted by Erin Hodges On November - 28 - 2011

Is your re-labeling and markdown process as efficient as it could be?  Are your employees spending valuable time going back and forth between a stationary printer?  In-aisle printing from wireless mobile printers closes the loop between pricing strategy and execution so you can increase efficiency and better utilize labor.  With a mobile printer and handheld mobile computer you can quickly and accurately prepare markdown labels, audit shelf prices and print new product or shelf labels right in the aisle.

DecisionPoint’s partner Zebra Technologies has created an ROI calculator so you can see what kind of cost savings you can realize after moving from a fixed printer configuration to a mobile printing solution.  Try out the Mobile Retail ROI Calculator today.
