Transportation Pains Eliminated For Shoppers Via Seattle-Based App Validated
Seattle, Washington (PRWEB) April 28, 2016 -- In this age of convenience and great choice, where e-commerce is undercutting prices and offering free delivery, there is much speculation about what brick-and-mortar retailers can do to keep up. The digital revolution has created countless problems for brick-and-mortar retail stores. Fortunately, the partnership between Validated and Likelihood is designed to eliminate a major pain point in the shopping experience: paying for transportation to get there and back.
Validated is an app that lets brick-and-mortar businesses buy their customers a ride or pay for their parking. Merchants on the platform are upscale retailers and restaurants with a positive reputation among consumers. Likelihood is the latest addition to the platform. An elite boutique at the heart of Capitol Hill, Likelihood puts a premium on customer experience and is acclaimed by Validated as a thought partner.
“Our store experience is designed to be a fun discovery while also being leisurely, the Validated app ensures we surprise our guests and ensures a completely frictionless experience with us all the way to the parking meter,” says Aaron DelGuzzo, Likelihood Co-Founder. “Validated increases the scope of what we can influence and we are excited to adopt their technology and elevate our service.”
By reimbursing transportation costs, Validated merchants remedy a real pain point for their customers and offer something of real value. Transportation is brick-and-mortar’s first and last touchpoint and covering associated costs makes the customer experience seamless and delightful. Covering a customer's ride is a gracious gesture that leads to lasting, meaningful loyalty.
When customers spend $100 or more at Likelihood, they receive $6 to pay for parking or ride-share (directly integrated with Lyft). All they need to do is ask to get validated at check-out.
