By using Omni-queue, the store staff can handle a combination of physical and online visitors in the same queue, which creates efficient use of staff resources. At the same time, a visitor can easily be switched to an online specialist in a different location (eg, in another store or working remotely) to give them the best possible service. The companies’ first joint customer is Kjell & Company, one of Scandinavia’s leading consumer electronics retailers.
Andreas Hassellöf, CEO of Ombori, said, “Together with Bambuser, we will offer the market’s most efficient omnichannel solution for gaining and retaining customers. The entire workflow will be automated, which creates a friction-free process and a clear overview of the workload throughout the chain. This leads to more productivity, increased customer satisfaction, and hence profitability.”
