Leave Nothing to Chance with Assisted Selling

The point of purchase is the last opportunity to convince a prospective customer that your brand is superior – don't leave that critical moment to chance. Enhance the customers’ experience and drive measurable sales through strategic product engagement from highly trained brand advocates.

Influence Your Consumer

For high consideration products, consumers are twice as likely to make a purchase in-store versus online. MarketStar’s assisted selling activities and product demonstrations maximize retail traffic by engaging consumers and inspiring credible recommendations — thereby influencing prospects. Gain the traction you need during grand openings, special events, seasonal promotions or weekend blitzes.

If you need help…

  • Driving my field marketing to actual sales and activity metrics, not just impressions.
  • Increasing sell-through for a new or existing product, category or brand within retail locations.
  • Maximizing sales during grand openings, special events, seasonal promotions or weekend blitzes.
  • Addressing competitive launches that are eclipsing my sales results.

In a fierce market, every customer counts. If someone has a dissatisfying experience with your brand, not only will it affect that customer, but also everyone that customer knows. MarketStar minimizes this risk by deploying skilled assisted sales (demo day) representatives to conduct product demonstrations that engage customers at the point of sale during high retail traffic periods. Each representative is trained in MarketStar's proven retail sales methodology and proficient at educating and influencing both sales associates and consumers. You may have only one chance to connect your brand to the consumer. Product demonstrators can maximize that chance by showcasing features that may be overlooked.

MarketStar can…

  • Deploy highly trained assisted sales representatives to conduct product demonstrations.
  • Capitalize on high retail traffic periods by engaging consumers and influencing sales associates.
  • Effectively connect your brand to the consumer.
