Benefits of Making Lines

Customers usually form a strong opinion on a business or retail store from the service and ease of their overall interaction. It is very important that you do your best to make this lasting impression be a positive one.

Using retractable belt stanchions for queuing can help improve customer experience by showing that your business is neat, orderly, and concerned about customer service. Additional benefits of single-line queuing are:

  • Increase of 400% in impulse sales.
  • Reduce walkways by up to 96%.
  • Perception of Increased value.
  • Social distancing control.
  • Potential for branding and information.
  • Reduce wait time.
  • Improve staff efficiency.
  • Prioritization of customers.

The Best Way to Make Queuing Lines

There is some debate on what are the best methods for setting up checkout lines. Is a single line to multiple cashiers better than multiple lines to multiple cashiers?

The short answer is that the perfect setup depends on the nature of the business and current amount of registers available. Using Line Dividers or Retractable Belt Stanchions can help easily modify queuing lines to adapt to the amount of customers or available registers. Additionally the length of the queue line should depend on the price of the products being sold. Research shows that customers shopping for products at a higher retail price may be more likely to walk away if they believe a line is too long. On the contrary, customers shopping for a value-driven product are more likely to wait in a long line to purchase a good deal.

The ideal situation for a business may be finding the perfect setup using Stanchion Line Dividers and use the opportunity to upsell or cross sell while customers are waiting in line for something they believe is a good deal.

At Traffic Cones for Less, we are dedicated to helping you improve and are now offering our heavy-duty stanchions at the best possible price (while supplies last).
