As a retailer, you face unique challenges when it comes to queue management and in-queue sales. On the one hand, you want to streamline your queue and keep wait times at a reasonable level. On the other hand, you want people to be in the queue long enough to consider those last minute impulse items you’ve so carefully selected and merchandised. How can you marry these two objectives to create a queue that is optimized for impulse sales and acceptable wait times?
Merchandising analytics gives you a view into how well the items and “zones” within your queue are performing.
