Retailers are discovering that internet radio can significantly improve the shopping experience and drive sales.
Spending behaviour is linked to customer moods, which surprisingly can be influenced with the right type of background music.
Playing slow lingering sounds can encourage customers to take their time shopping and buy more in-store, subconsciously slowing down to browse and spend an increased amount of time in your store.
There are two main ways that your station can help generate more revenue and increase sales:
Customers buy products from familiar places that they know and trust, so building a strong brand through the power of radio can be a great way to put your store at the forefront of shopper’s minds.
Take your in-store radio online and give people access anywhere like at home, through social media like Facebook, your website, or in the palm of their hands on their phones - This way you can really spread your brand into the minds of your audience, so the next time they need a specific products your brand will be the first thing they think of.
Create a consistent and instantly recognisable audio experience the moment customers step in-store through the power of brand awareness. The sense of comfort this can give people can turn them into loyal customers, a quality in-store radio helps improve as the experience a customer has and in-turn improves the chances of them revisiting your store.
