What do our customers say?

Based on the presence data collected through Purple, a popular coffee shop chain was able to see the total number of customers in their venue per hour, day, week, etc. Through collecting and analyzing data over time, the chain was able to accurately predict customer footfall. They used this data to alter their staffing requirements accordingly – increasing staff numbers during busy periods and reducing staff numbers when they were quiet. This allowed the business to provide a better service for customers when they were busy, through reduced queues and waiting times, and to save close to $120 per week in salaries.

In another example, a luxury department store based in London employed more Chinese speaking staff during specific times of the day to tie in with in-bound flights – significantly improving the in-store experience. Using the data collected from Purple’s user language report, the brand was able to identify peaks in Chinese speaking tourists following flights into London Heathrow.
