## Shoppers Are Calling With Questions. Don't Send Them to a Competitor.

When customers call about product availability, store hours, or special orders, Dialzara answers so they walk into your store — not someone else's.

## The problem you face every day

### Floor Staff Busy, Callers Waiting

Your staff is helping customers on the floor, processing returns, and restocking shelves. The phone rings. A customer wants to check if you have a specific item before driving across town to your store.

### Losing Foot Traffic One Missed Call at a Time

Every unanswered call is a customer who'll either shop online or visit a competitor. In retail, phone service directly drives foot traffic — and you're losing both.

### Local Shops Should Outserve, Not Underserve

A customer willing to support a local shop shouldn't be ignored because the staff is busy with other customers.

## We understand your world

We work with retail shops where every employee is customer-facing. Pulling someone off the floor to answer phones hurts the in-store experience. Dialzara handles phone inquiries so your team stays with the customers in front of them.

### By the numbers

- **24/7** — Store info line
- **93%** — Caller satisfaction
- **<30s** — Answer time
- **25%** — More foot traffic from calls

> "We increased store visits by 20% just from answering product availability calls. Customers who confirm an item is in stock almost always come in."

## Two paths forward

### With Dialzara

- Every product and availability inquiry is answered without pulling floor staff
- Store hours, location, and event information is always available
- Special orders and holds are captured professionally
- After-hours calls generate next-day store visits
- Your local reputation for service strengthens

### Without Dialzara

- Callers shop online or visit chain competitors
- Floor staff is constantly interrupted by phone calls
- Special order opportunities are lost to voicemail
- After-hours inquiries never convert to store visits
- Customer experience suffers both on phone and in store
