Three reasons:
First, the restroom stall is a place where customers have a minute of quiet time, often with a smartphone in their hands – it’s the reality of today. This explains the high volume of responses from the restrooms.
Second, the restroom is one place where a business has little control of the moment when it gets messy or runs out of supplies.
Lastly, various research is loud and clear that over 90% of customers will judge a business and service quality by the conditions of the restroom.
AirVote questions are perfect to be placed in every restroom stall, on the inside of the door facing a customer when they sit down. Low setup costs make it a simple and practical solution.
Thee are two ways AirVote can bring value to businesses with light customer traffic:
Most of the popular review sites create an external image of a business in the social world. AirVote is an internal tool. Your customers will use it to tell you in real-time the truth about your services. This helps you fix small issues before they become big and before they show up in Facebook/Google/Yelp as a negative review.
Popular review sites require going to the site, sign-in, and type comments. Reviews and comments are usually visible to everyone including the reviewer’s circle of friends. That’s why statistically only 2 percent of customers submit external reviews. Usually when they are either very happy or very frustrated. In comparison, with the anonymous, one-tap QR smiley scan your customers vote on-the-go and can be honest about their level of satisfaction. Our real life metrics are loud and clear that the customers do vote, and in large numbers – certainly large enough to catch a good or a bad trend.
This is true – those customers will not be able to vote using AirVote. However:
-They will also be less likely to go to popular social review sites and hurt your brand by submitting a bad review. It is a more technically savvy audience who would do that – and they are most likely to know how to scan a QR code
-You do not need 100 people to vote and tell you that your restrooms need cleaning. If you are watching the dashboard daily, just a couple of votes are enough to show the problem or a trend
Formats don’t matter – as long as it is visible and easy for the customers to scan. Poster, stand, table tent, even electronically on a TV display – all work.
Absolutely! In fact, many of our clients print AirVote smileys as inserts into their customers’ takeout orders. Rule of thumb: if you are interested in feedback at specific physical location, it is best to have a separate question. Otherwise, you can make as many copies as you want to track feedback from the specific customer group.
There might be. Questions to ask:
Speak with your customer success department about it – to at least make them aware of AirVote as an alternative
