Kiosks and Mobile
POS Technologies Emerging Channels in Integrated Marketing Strategy Anurupa Sengupta | April 2005 • Promise Technology options have never been better to launch newer, more efficient infrastructures in support of truly innovative integrated multi-channel marketing approaches. • Reality The consumer’s changing tastes and demands for convenience have accelerated in the digital age like never before. Competition is increasing to the point that lines are blurring between banks, post-offices, restaurants, grocery stores, high-volume retailers, hotels and airports. Kiosks have been identified as one of the major channels to support the integrated marketing strategy necessary to thrive in today’s competitive environment. • Problem A kiosk implementation is one of the most multi-disciplinary projects an enterprise can undertake, crossing the domains of IT, corporate marketing, in-store operations, finance and creative services. The definition, design and implementation of the project is best guided by a strategically planned roadmap. • Solution Well planned self-service technology-enabled channels align customer experiences across brick-and- mortar, catalog, kiosk, online and mobile touch points. A proper implementation roadmap, exceptional user experience design, and the right vendor partnerships can leverage a kiosk solution to provide valuable points of interaction, bridging the high-tech and high-touch elements of customer relationship management strategy. ©2005 Avenue A | Razorfish.

Kiosks and Integrated
Marketing Integrated marketing is more than the leap from brochure to website to tradeshow kiosk, it's a critical strategy for the successful marketing of any product or service and a fundamental component of sound overall business strategy. Whether an enterprise is looking to penetrate new markets, evolve the perception of branding or drive demand for the offerings, a well-thought-out integrated marketing strategy can help maximize results while minimizing the costs of program implementation and maintenance. Integrated marketing is a multi-dimensional combination of strategy, user experience design, applied technology and quantitative performance measurement, analysis, and optimization. Fig. 1: Components of Integrated Marketing Strategy What is a Kiosk? An interactive kiosk system is typically a touch-screen monitor connected to a computer. It is usually placed inside a secure enclosure in a public place that enables consumers to have instant electronic access to information, products, and/or services. There are three fundamental components of a kiosk solution: • A physical enclosure which houses the hardware • A physical hardware (touch-screen monitor, CPU, stereo speakers, printer, cables, etc.) ©2005 Avenue A | Razorfish.

A software application that secures the computer, stores information, processes transactions, and delivers the messages, services, and/or products. With the success of digital photo kiosks and self-service e-ticket kiosks in airports, kiosks have been identified as one of the major channels of integrated marketing strategy. The Kiosk Industry sector Report (Summit Research Associates, Inc. Retail, 2004) identifies the top reasons to deploy kiosks in the retail industry: 1. To provide information 2. As line busters 3. To improve customer service 4. To reduce costs 5. To reduce staff 6. To increase competitive advantage 7. As a Public Relations tool. If they are to be successful, it is also important for retailers to be proactive and encourage customers to try the kiosk. Promotional brochures should encourage use, the location and environment should compel use, and high-touch guidance available at the kiosk should ensure successful use. Airlines frequently use their gate agents to guide people to their kiosks. US Postal Service employees are tasked to help introduce customers to the new Automated Postal Centers. Fig 2: Recent Articles on Kiosk Trends Self-Service Technologies: Kiosks and POS Devices POS, or Point-of-Service technologies (sometimes also referred to as Point-of-Sale), help savvy retailers to offer just-in-time and just-enough service with an in-store automation solution: e.g. a personal shopping assistant or a self-checkout system. POS devices utilize barcode readers, RFID readers and wireless network technologies to provide valuable information to consumers such as product look up, related product information and other purchase assistance. In order to take full advantage of the benefits offered by self-service systems, a plan should be in place to phase out legacy technologies and invest in open standard technologies such as personal computer based terminals, standard operating systems, web services, and xml-based communication protocols. The Impact of Market Forces While industry has always been faced with tough competition, thin margins, and high employee turnover, it has changed rapidly and dramatically due to certain key market forces—consumer demands, market pressure and evolving technology. The consumer’s changing tastes and demands for convenience have accelerated in the digital age like never before. Competition is increasing to the point that lines are blurring between banks, post-offices, restaurants, grocery stores, high-volume retailers, hotels and airports. At the same time, the choices in technology have never been better to launch newer more efficient infrastructures in support of truly innovative integrated multi-channel marketing approaches. Traditionally, industries have relied on technology to reduce costs and improve control. Now they are looking to new technology solutions to help drive up sales. ©2005 Avenue A | Razorfish.

In an engagement,
real-world examples of actual kiosk deployments and a project analysis should be used to customize the principles of planning the implementation. Critical Component: Designing the User Experience A user's experience with a kiosk only lasts a short period of time, so a user adoption strategy is a must for successful kiosk implementation. Here are key user experience goals to keep in mind while designing a kiosk application: Work with a team that has the experience and expertise in building successful user adoption strategies • The team should have experience in designing kiosk and online user experiences. • The team should be able to produce solid technical design and network and systems design and should be following a software development process to complete implementation and deployment in a timely fashion. • The team should have expertise in using analytics and conversion testing to test and build incrementally. Tailor-make the kiosk for your audience and their environment • Kiosks are true “walk-up-and-use” interfaces: users often use them once and never again. • Simplicity is important. Users often return to a website, learning more and more about how to use the site. But they may never come back to the same store kiosk if they find it to be more difficult than the standard high-touch system. Choose hardware and placement based on customer needs • Choose hardware (touch-screen, keyboard, mouse) and ergonomics (seating, height) based on known customer needs – long vs. short usage, simple vs. involved tasks, one-person vs. two-person operation. • Place the kiosks where customers will find them – in open areas with many lines of vision to the kiosk, and where there is an opportunity to use signage for the kiosk. Create a compelling user experience • Implement integrated marketing practices by unifying the kiosk experience with that of the Web platform. • The experience must support the needs of a broad range of customers and users with limited time – research shows that one in five adult web users give up on a task after as little as 8 seconds of wait time. ©2005 Avenue A | Razorfish.

Critical Component: Partnering
with the Right Product Vendors A solution based on integrating different systems and partnering with different vendors requires careful planning. This means that an enterprise needs to consider business, functional, technical and user experience goals for the system in order to choose the right product vendors. Some such considerations might be: • That the products selected must have the required features to support implementation by the release dates • That the future vision of a selected product meets the ongoing updates to the kiosk application • That the platform is cost-effective, is functionally rich, based on open standards and extensible • That the implementation methodology compels use and in turn increases sales The following diagram shows a sample of vendors in the related market and where they would enter into a kiosk implementation project: Client Tier Presentation Tier Application Tier Security and Remote Management Fig 5: Related Vendors ©2005 Avenue A | Razorfish.
