3 Ways AccuStore Helps with Sustainability
April 18, 2024 by Paul Sotrop – Data-driven intel is the key to helping today’s retailers reduce their carbon footprint in a variety of ways. Sustainability is more than setting up a bin for recycling. Sustainability begins with knowing processes, materials and workflows. Gathering that data includes conducting store surveys. After collecting the data, then retailers can look at their processes to implement the 3 Rs of sustainability: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. Here are three ways retailers can rely on store intelligence solutions to help with sustainability.
- Avoid Overage – Reduce waste and print overages by knowing exactly which store location needs what materials. Site profiles make it easy to translate marketing campaigns into site-specific, cost-effective POP campaign kits. The result: the marketing team orders exactly what’s needed based upon store size and location, eliminating waste.
- Enforce Recycling Efforts – Ensure teams are taking good care of their stores as well as the planet with automated Task Management. Retailers can set up hourly checks—as tasks—to confirm that store employees are successfully adhering to store recycling rules. Additional tasks can include having team members conduct regular maintenance check issues that result in waste such as leaky faucets and improperly sealed entrances.
- Reduce Fuel – Significantly reduce fuel by cutting back on the amount of store assessment visits. Leverage AccuStore 6, the mobile app, to capture issues in real-time. This helps retail professionals streamline communication by sharing photos—of any items in and around the store—with their team members. Regional managers can avoid wasting fuel and manpower driving to check on stores that don’t have issues or stores with issues detailed within the cloud-based platform.
