What If Your Store Could Move?
Mobile Commerce in a Post Covid-19 World
For business owners with face-to-face customer interaction who are considering opening a new store or reopening an existing one, the benefits of mobile commerce include:
Lower capital costs than a brick-and-mortar storefront.
Convenience for customers, as you can reach a different group of customers daily.
Reaching customers who remain hesitant about traveling
to stores due to health and safety concerns, even post-COVID-19.
Increased public advertising and visibility as you travel be-tween customers and neighborhoods.
The ability to be on the forefront of your industry as you rethink existing business models for reaching and engaging customers.
A mobile physical presence developed with an integrated online website and social media to allow customers to know exactly when you will be in their neighborhood and to make an appointment, if necessary.
Katz Architecture is familiar with the myriad challenges mobile commerce presents, including local climate, city infrastructure, municipal laws/codes/licenses/permits, and supply chain logistics.
We have chosen to present a detailed example of a hairdressing salon in a trailer to illustrate the above benefits of a mobile approach. This example is followed with plan diagrams for other business types including pet grooming and physical therapy.
