Brands are about consistency

Customers appreciate, trust, and feel welcomed by stores that are consistently clean and well organized. Your retail storefronts are the face of your company and their appeal is what brings customers back. 

Impressions are important

You only get once chance at a first impression and it happens every time someone walks into your store. For c-stores, this happens hundreds of times a day. Providing a positive experience and feeling for every customer on every visit is what helps make sure they keep coming back.

All that traffic creates challenges

While we want a lot of foot traffic through stores, the volume makes it difficult to keep stores clean and well stocked. Employees are often focused on customers, monitoring the pumps, and running the register. It helps to periodically refocus on store appearance.

Regular inspections focus employees on store appearance

The Store Inspection tool provides a checklist for each area of the store, guiding the employee to record the current state and take pictures of any issues. It helps them notice items that need to be addressed and it provides a relative score that helps identify repeat problems and trends.

Custom checklist

Inspected items can be tailored for your business to ensure that the items important to your brand are checked. You control the level of detail in the inspection. If you want quick inspections you can just include a few key items or broad topics, if you want them to be more thorough you can add as many items as you want.

Dashboard View

Employee & manager dashboards shows a quick visual summary of recent inspections, with pictures and notes. It highlights current problems so they can be addressed right away. This is the number one place to quickly see where things stand. 

Scores, History, & Trends

A score is generated for each area of the store as well as for the location as a whole. This “grade” helps employees and managers understand how the store looks relative to the prior shift, prior days, or compared to other stores. This can be used by managers to identify and address ongoing issues for specific areas of the store, in certain shifts, or for certain employees.

Regularly measure your brand consistency

Don't depend on infrequent secret shopper programs to see how you stores are doing. Implement a tool that lets you monitor and correct issues on a ongoing basis.
