Make every area manager visit consistent  and efficient 

Try an area manager store visit app that you can access on any mobile device. Seamlessly guide through the store visit, making the whole process quick, effective and easy.

Ensure consistency in area manager visits

Store visits often lack focus, leading to inefficiency and missed opportunities. With limited time and many tasks to juggle, you can easily get sidetracked and not use your time effectively in the store. This results in frustrating and inconsistent visits that overlook the needs of the store, its staff, and its customers.

With the Review Area Manager visit app, every visit is structured to ensure time is spent where it's most needed. This approach uncovers valuable insights that will significantly impact the direction and performance of your retail store.

Track progress over time

The Review Area Manager visit app lets you collect insights with just the tap of a button in seconds. You can ask questions with photos, Yes/No, sliding vibe scales 0-100%, dropdowns, temperatures, distances, weights, capacities and KPIs. 

Every answer builds up a scored visit audit report so you can easily make decisions and see if things improve or worsen over time. It also makes it easy to see where improvements are needed and what actions to take—ultimately keeping everyone accountable and clarifying with measurable evidence what needs to be done to improve retail performance.

Ensure issues aren’t just identified. They’re resolved

You have a lot on your mind, which causes you to not follow up on issues or action items identified during store visits. This results in missed opportunities for improvement or resolution of problems. 

But, with the Review area manager app, you can easily set tasks for yourself and your retail team in real-time, complete with deadlines, reporting, and team-wide visibility. This ensures that all issues are addressed quickly, with clear timelines for resolution.

Detailed and precise explanations for store managers to follow

You’re constantly on the move, aiming to gather as much information as possible within a tight timeframe. Yet, without sufficient context, your photo uploads in reports may be misconstrued, posing challenges for store managers in taking the proper steps.

Save time and improve clarity on every area manager visit by capturing and annotating clear photos “in the moment”.

Each photo is timestamped and geotagged with the location where it was taken. Be confident you’ve got the evidence and insight from every area manager visit.

A simple, helicopter view across all of your stores

Each store visit is crucial, but the real value lies in identifying recurring issues across your entire retail business. With our bird’s-eye view feature, area managers can immediately see an overview of how each store compares and its performance.

You’ll be able to quickly see what's working effectively, what needs improvement, and where opportunities exist to improve customer service.

No more digging around files or back-and-forth emails with store managers. Just a simple, straightforward overview of store performance at their fingertips.

Stop typing up notes whilst on the move

Recording each area manager visit in real-time means no longer typing up your notes in the car park or on a train.

So you can say goodbye to the hassle of deciphering scribbled notes or trying to recall details of your visit from memory.  

With real-time recording, you'll have accurate and detailed visit documentation at your fingertips, allowing you to focus on engaging with staff, assessing performance, and driving results.

“I use Review to get a snapshot of the last 28 days and show me what’s happening across all our UK stores. It tells me what we need to work on, and what we need to celebrate. And that’s where I lean into education for the new month.”
