Max Weiland, CEO of beaconsmind AG said "In an omnichannel world, we enable retailers like DEPOT to make brick-and-mortar stores even more attractive, thanks to a shopping experience that integrates the advantages that they find online. Customers are now starting to expect a level of personalization and interaction everywhere and our thesis is that they will soon find non-digitally enhanced shopping inferior to online. And this is where our sweet spot is, by enabling retailers like DEPOT with brick-and-mortar networks that are central to their brand narrative, to enhance their stores with digital interaction capabilities, and therefore seamlessly merge online and offline. DEPOT is breaking new ground by digitising its network and investing in customer experience, and we look forward to supporting them as they continue their impressive expansion. Max Weiland added: "This significant customer acquisition highlights beaconsmind's ability to rapidly deploy its commercial strategy. This win also points to a shortening of the sales cycles, and the maturity of the solution which meets the needs of distribution company ".
