The number of retail companies that are turning to software applications to keep up is constantly growing. Combining mobile technology with a merchandising software solution allows retail companies to reduce expenses due to increased efficiency in the field and streamlined data workflow.
For merchandisers, who are permanently on the go, having a mobile merchandising app that can provide real-time access to corporate data from anywhere and simplify work operations is clearly a must. Here are some examples of how a merchandiser can become more efficient when using a mobile merchandising application to collect retail data.
- Access all the necessary information for work in one easy-to-use system. Merchandising software allows field merchandisers to enjoy mobile access to customers’ information, product catalog, history of visits, the schedule and tasks, including notes and multimedia attachments.
- Optimize travel routes to save time and fuel, add new customers and add extra visits and tasks from a tablet or a smartphone.
- Collect retail data faster while minimizing mistakes due to numeric input keypad and barcode scanning for easy product search.
