Store Locator Software
Web-based store locator and driving direction software/service help people find your stores and business locations when they are ready to buy.
The smartest way to get more customers into your retail store, branch, franchise or other business location is to offer a locator on your Web site.
Store locators are essential for any company with multiple business locations:
-
Show customers the most convenient location in their vicinity to purchase your products and services
-
Turn e-commerce browsers into in-store buyers
-
Reduce lost sales to customers by making your business the easiest one to find and visit
-
Capture demographic data allowing you to better understand and market to your customers
-
Get reports showing where customers are looking for you, allowing you to add new stores in optimal geographic locations
Our store locator is built on Microsoft Virtual Earth to retrieve the highest quality maps and accurate driving directions.
SpatialPoint offers Store Locators as a product or as a hosted Web service. Not sure which is right for you? Call 866.846.5900 to speak with a SpatialPoint specialist.
Where e-commerce and 'brick & mortar' commerce connect
Even if you sell products online, the majority of online shoppers still want to "touch and feel" the merchandise before they buy. That's why you need a locator on your Web site: show customers where to find you when they're ready to buy, and they'll return again and again.
What if you don't have your own stores but sell through other retail outlets?
If you sell through dealers and other channels and don't have your own store locations, it's more important than ever to have a locator on your Web site. Otherwise, how do customers know where they can find your brand of products and services?
Do you already have a store locator that's 'good enough'?
You may have a store locator already, but it may not be 'good enough.' The most common problem with store locators is that one or more of your locations are not displayed accurately on the map or are not found at all! Don't lose customers because you have a weak store locator! Find out about other potential issues by reading our whitepaper.
What unique features make SpatialPoint's locator compelling?
Flexible Search Options:
Most locators list locations by distance – so the closest store is shown first and the farthest store in the search radius is last.
But some organizations work from territories. So no matter how close a store is to the customer, stores that are in the same territory as the customer are listed. See the images below:
|
Standard Radius Searching
With standard radius searching from a location (red star), the closest stores are found (diamonds with blue circle). |
|
Territory Searching
For organizations that require searching by territory, the closest stores aren’t necessarily the ones selected (diamonds with blue circle that fall within territory). |
Prioritizing the Results:
Besides having multiple ways to search for stores and dealers, SpatialPoint can tailor the list of stores or dealers to promote featured or preferred stores or dealers – regardless of distance.
