Increase Sales
As a business owner, this is always your goal. Sure, you want customers to enjoy their experience, know they can count on your restaurant for excellent customer service, and eat and drink great food while they’re at it — but you really want to increase sales. Guest access WiFi is a foundational way to make this happen.
When your customers enjoy free restaurant WiFi, you’ll be able to attract repeat customers with personalized restaurant promotions; send coupons and deals to new, former, and repeat customers; and increase online visibility and brand awareness. These three aspects all lead to more customers in your restaurant and more revenue for you.
Retarget Customers, Increase Loyalty
We’re sure you’re well aware at this point that not every customer will convert with their first interaction, no matter what effective advertising you’re using. All advertising methods will experience customers that don’t convert — or at least don’t convert right away. By using WiFi solutions from That’s Biz, though, you can retarget those customers and get them back in your restaurant.
You can build loyalty by offering coupons and deals to repeat customers or use text message marketing to reach out to previous customers. Any personalized message you send to a repeat or former customer will be more likely to make a conversion because you use the customer database and information you received from the restaurant WiFi.
Ensure WiFi Security
All this being said, you want to be sure you can be in control of your restaurant WiFi and who uses it. With the WiFi solutions from That’s Biz, this is possible. You can limit WiFi use to a certain amount of time, for example, and you can even block users from gaining access to the WiFi. You can also protect your back-office systems with captive portal, while also providing guests in your restaurant with additional security while they use your WiFi services.
