Increasing Customer Traffic
How stores are changing with the iClean Dog Wash
Increased customer traffic
The Dog Wash brings new customers to stores that have never been there before because you now provide a dog wash for customers to easily clean their dogs.
We surveyed 30 pet stores that have a Dog Wash, in which 2 were major chains, we found that 40% of their customers had never visited the store until a Dog Wash was installed, hard to believe?
We went into depth for the reasons why:
- Friends told friends how easy it was to use the dog wash at the store
- Customers are looking for an easier way to wash their pets
- Grooming becoming too expensive
- Converting people that would never wash their dog to regular dog washers.
Increased Customer Spend
With having a dog wash, more customers will regularly visit the store to wash their pets and this will result in a higher spend in the store as well as at the dog wash. In several cases the grooming products spend went up by 25% due to repositioning of products around the dog wash area.
New Customer Spend
The new customer spend is an added bonus, with 40% of these being new to the store it is an opportunity to retain them, so if a store has approx 1200 sales per week it is probable that the dog wash will have a customer base of at least 40 dogs per week, approx $350 turn over, out of these customers 16 have not been to the store until you offered this service, customers cycle between 3 and 5 weeks to wash, taking this into account you could have up to 100 new regular customers, convert this into other retail sales per year in store!
