In-Store Kiosks

In-Store Interactive Kiosks with Video Chat & Content Sharing

Let your organization use remote trained experts to address questions of in-store customers who need more in depth help than they could get from a store representative.

The technologically savvy millennials enjoy self service with selective assistance, where as the Gen Z, typically born after the mid 90’s, like to have complete control over the digital experience. How can kiosk-based applications attract this generation fed on smart phones, tablets, and web TVs?

The growing trend among kiosks now is to offer more choices and options to customers—thus providing greater opportunity to the customer service function to deliver truly personalized service experience.  As the increasingly techno-savvy customers continue to demand more from their “machines,” the modern kiosks can hope to hold their undivided attention by:

  • Providing customers more service choices (combination of on-demand and self service)
  • Enabling customer-created and interactive content
  • Offering personalized service experience

Kiosks of tomorrow must offer more DIY options, where customers feel completely “in charge” of their machine interaction. During such customer-driven engagements, kiosks will gather customer content and use the information to deliver truly personalized experience.

VeriShow’s iLiveKiosk provides a comprehensive answer to a growing need of organizations for in-store live multi channel customer service tools that also let customers communicate with remote professional representatives face to face over the web at an overall reduced cost for the organization (for example, same agent can address customers from many locations).

The in-store kiosk station

There are various ways in which the kiosk station can be designed. The solution could range from a PC based station, with a Keyboard and a mouse mounted on a dedicated platform for ease of use to more elaborative stations. The station would need to look neat and attractive to encourage usage.
