In retail, the customer wants to know whether what they are after is in stock before travelling to the shop. For many, the Google profile is the first catalogue they check.
Presenzai does this on your profile every day, without you having to log in.
A visible, up-to-date catalogue
Upload real product photos, updated when your main stock changes. An out-of-date catalogue produces frustrated visits for products that no longer exist.
Clear availability
If you carry broad product categories, use the description and the posts to highlight what is in stock now, especially in high-demand seasons.
Product photos, not stock photos
Generic internet photos do not build trust. Real photos of your shop and your products, however simple, communicate better that what you sell is exactly what is shown.
Reviews about the buying experience
In retail, reviews tend to be about service, availability and how easy the purchase was. Replying with attention to those specific points is worth more than a generic thank-you reply.
Seasonal posts
New collections, seasonal offers and restocks of popular products are the content that engages most in retail. Post when the stock actually changes.
Stop doing it by hand
