Clienteling
Help associates personally engage with your customers
When customers walk into your store, their shopping experience determines if they buy today and if they return in the future. The personal attention they receive makes the difference between browsing and buying, and a one-time sale and a buying relationship.
How do you personalize the associate-customer relationship to increase satisfaction, sales and return trips? That’s simple—with Clienteling from RedPrairie.

Put the “little black book” on steroids
Top performing sales associates know their best customers like the back of their hand. Their “little black book” is full of notes about product and style preferences, past purchases, even personal information such as anniversary dates, birthdays and more. But the” little black book” isn’t scalable, and when a sales pro leaves, so does his book.
With in-store sales down across many industries, RedPrairie Clienteling function and putting a treasure trove of information at your store associates’ fingertips. Now, more associates can reach out to more customers with confidence that they have the right information and incentives that will interest the customer. And that means more store traffic and more sales.
A 360⁰ view empowers your associates
RedPrairie Clienteling uses customer-specific data to empower the sales associate with a full 360-degree view of the client’s interaction with the store, including
- Customer communication, demographics, lifestyle and shopping preferences
- A "virtual closet" with purchase history, product images, and transaction dates and locations
Associates then use the data to reach out to their clients on a one-to-one basis, increasing traffic and prompting unplanned visits to the store during promotions or important dates.
