Pilot retail application looks set to renew region’s bricks and mortar

Auckland, 9 December, 2015 – The first Salesforce Retail Clienteling application in Asia Pacific has arrived.

Recently launched, this brand new application looks set to transform bricks and mortar retailing across the region with powerful, on-the-spot customer data that creates a totally customised in-store experience.

This application is launched by SalesFix Pty Ltd., a Brisbane based specialist partner in business process improvement, in partnership with Salesforce ISV Partner Proximity Insight. Together they will deliver the very first Retail Clienteling application to Comvita’s retail store staff in New Zealand.

Following other premium brands such as Max Mara, Burberry and Jaeger, Comvita understands a key element of the future of bricks and mortar shopping is providing a superior in-store and personalised experience for customers.

Through the new Retail Clienteling application, Comvita’s retail staff associates will be able to access powerful, real-time customer data such as spending history and past interactions across multiple channels (retail or e-commerce) . As a simple, customer-facing interface, the Clienteling solution will enable extensive product information to be accessed by sales staff who can then share this with their customer.

A further benefit is an ability for the stores to be connected to other departments, stores and teams such as customer service, to have a single view of the customer regardless of location. It will mean retail staff will be able to view all customer issues no matter where they were raised i.e whether by email, in person or online.

The Retail Clienteling application is being piloted in New Zealand. Following the pilot, it is likely to be rolled out to another three countries in the APAC region and in the corresponding language: Japan, Korea and Hong Kong

Jason Lawrence, CEO for SalesFix said, “Proximity Insight brings a breadth of expertise in the new frontier of brick-and-mortar retail clienteling, where sales associates have real-time access to powerful CRM data through mobile devices. This is just one of the strategic partnerships we have formed to better serve our customer Comvita and the broader retail sector.”
