A happy couple shopping inside a mall

Engaged store associates increase conversion and sales

In today's competitive market, many retail chains choose to invest significant sums in traffic-generating activities. Yet figures from Norwegian retail show that up to 70%* of visitors leave the store without shopping. A lack of focus and commitment from store staff is cited as the main reason. We believe this is a "forgotten" business opportunity with a large financial upside that it is good business to do something about.
