You might be spending extra on your social media platforms, maybe hired dedicated teams to handle your social media and other online strategies and advertisements, eventually, everyone will end up on your website, and this is where it could either make you all efforts to pay off or wasted.

That is why when it comes to develop a completely new website or revamping of your old website you would have to acquire a professional web design company in Dubai, UAE. But since there are hundreds of web design and development agencies operating in Dubai and other parts of UAE, then how could you make it sure that you are selecting the best web design company? In this guide, we will discuss a few basic factors with which you can easily evaluate by yourself to determine if a web design company is suitable for your needs or not.

Here are the basic factors and different stages of evaluating a web design and development company in Dubai, UAE:

0. Define your goals and objectives first

Before we step into the list of the important factors to choose the best web design company in Dubai, we also want to discuss one very important point which is to ‘define your goals and objectives first’. As your website is an integral part of your broader online marketing strategy, so you must have to define your goals and objective for your marketing campaign and the website itself. Once you are set with a clear goal of your marketing campaign then start thinking about the website that can support these goals.

1. Prepare a list of the web design companies that you would like to work with

You should prepare a list of the companies that you want to work with. As you are seeking a web design agency in Dubai, UAE. So, start with evaluating the websites of the web design agencies, as they are selling the same thing so they should have displayed a remarkable design with extremely well user experience for their website visitors.

Here are a few steps to shortlist web design agencies in Dubai, UAE:

First, evaluate their website in terms of design and functionalities
Then look up for their portfolio and work samples
Check their social media and online profiles
Explore further to try to find online reviews about the selected web design companies
Ask your colleagues and friends to suggest you a web design agency in Dubai with which they have previously worked and had a good experience
Don’t rely on the directory listing and third party ratings, it could be misleading or confusing

Once you shortlisted some web design agencies, let say, 8 companies that you have shortlisted from the above steps and online searches from Google or Social Media, etc. The next step is to contact them one by one.

2. Contact the shortlisted web design agencies

Contacting the shortlisted web design agencies is the first step into your deal with them. You can usually find contact numbers, address and the email ID on their website most likely in the header/footer and obviously at their Contact Us page. The best approach is to leave a ‘call back request’ or fill in the ‘contact form’ or ‘request a quote’ form. Here are some points to be noted:

How much time do they take to respond?
What kind of email they have sent you in response?
If they have sent you a very lengthy email with multiple discount offers or attractive packages, etc then ignore them.
If they take too long to respond, then ignore them too, either they might be very busy, or else they have a lazy team, which could later cause you difficulties in project execution and support.

Usually, companies set auto-responder which you receive within a few minutes, then some salesperson or technical consultant or business analysts approaches you, try to evaluate how they have had approached you? try to evaluate the person:

What questions did they ask you?
How technically sound do they look?
Did they ask the right questions to gather relevant information to understand your requirements or just an ordinary sales pitch?
How confident they were in answer to your queries?

And stuff like that. If at this point you feel okay, then set up a meeting and do a proper requirement gathering session.

3. Set up a requirement gathering meeting

The requirement gathering meeting should be thorough and detailed. Prepare some questions beforehand and include them in the discussion. Try to evaluate the team who came for the meeting:

How technically sound they are?
What kind of questions they have asked you?
Did they provide satisfactory answers to your questions?
Don’t go in technical details but keep it to the objectives and your expectations from the web design.
Evaluate their suggestions that how convincing and relevant those suggestion were? Could you further improve your website with their suggestions or not?
If the web design agency only takes down your requirements and do not suggest anything from them, then ask them for their suggestions and ideas, and evaluate them too.

If you felt satisfied with them then move to the next step.

4. Request for Proposal and maybe a Presentation

Once the requirements are conveyed and clear project scope has been defined, then let the technical/IT teams from both sides agree on the technical details. Usually, this can be done through emails or a few short conference calls between the two teams. This doesn’t take much time. Once this process is done, then request a final proposal from the web design agency. They might share it in email, but ask them for a meeting to discuss everything face-to-face. This will not only expedite the process but will also help you make a quick decision. If the website development company request for a presentation then let them do that, you might get more valuable information.

5. Request the Web Design Agency to provide you Sample Work and a few Clients

By this time your list has already been reduced. You might be left with only three or four web design companies to choose from. So, request them to share their sample work with you, and also a list of a few recent clients. Contact their clients and asked them about their experience with the agency. This will significantly help you in getting a neutral opinion about the vendor.

6. Evaluate the Contract Thoroughly!

Evaluate the contract and their terms and conditions thoroughly. See if their terms and conditions are only to protect their interests or are set up on neutral grounds as per the industry standards. You are the client, they must have to abide with your terms and conditions. But of course, your terms and conditions shouldn’t be so tough and one-sided. Agree on payment terms and deadlines.

7. Support, Maintenance Contracts and SLAs

This is a bit tricky part and we being a leading web design company in Dubai, UAE often noticed that the customers don’t usually pay much attention to this part. Your website is not just a product which you buy or request a custom-built for you and wait until the warranty gets expired. But in the modern market in Dubai, UAE and all across the world the websites have become more like a service. Which requires a reliable vendor or partner who can assist and support you with your regular needs of updates, upgrades and changes in the website. Request them for the Annual Maintenance Contract (AMC) and their after-sale support policy.

SLA is a service level agreement. It is an agreement that defines the terms and conditions of any IT service’s service delivery mechanisms. Whenever you are building a website, you need to host it somewhere, either you can host it in your local data centre, which obviously will increase you’re internal IT cost. So, the best approach is always to host your website on third-party hosting or cloud hosting. Whenever you are hosting on such platforms they provide you an estimated downtime and service recovery time in case of any interruption. Compare the SLAs of the shortlisted web design agencies too. Just a minute fraction could translate into hours or days if the SLA is signed for just only one year. So, be vigilant.

8. Data Privacy & Protection Policy

Data Privacy & Protection is very important. Especially when you are also having your emails hosted along with your website. You must sign a separate NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) with you web designing and hosting provider company to ensure your data will be protected with them. If you are hosting sensitive data such as emails or if you have any portal that allows uploading of documents such as complaint management system or something which is a part of the website development then you must have a data protection plan in place. You can achieve 99.9% uptime and data protection by requesting, SLA, backups and fail-over protection services from the hosting provider. Discuss these things in details with the web design company and then decide whether if you need any such additional service or not. As they happen to be a bit costly.

Conclusion

How to choose the best web design company in Dubai, UAE is not a simple question. Although it is a tricky job, if you consider all of the factors and steps we have mentioned in this guide, you can easily find a suitable technical partner and vendor for your business. As in UAE, there are hundreds of web designing and development agencies working, so finding out a reliable web design and development agency may sound difficult but in reality, it isn’t all you need is to pay attention to certain things and do the process in a very manageable manner as we have described in the above guide.

As there are a lot many feedback collection methods, so you also have to choose which method is suitable for you and can ensure good results. The year 2021 will be a completely new era in the service industry and in this blog we will elaborate on different methods to gather customer feedback in the year 2021.

These are just a few major benefits you can get by collecting customer feedback. In short collecting customer feedback will help you a lot in keeping up with the new trends of 2021 and gaining a competitive edge.

How to Collect Customer Feedback in the Year 2021?

Well 2021 will be a completely new landscape for the service-based industry, not only the behaviour of the customers/visitors will impact your growth but it could also directly impact your reputation and brand identity in the market. So, it is very important that you collect comprehensive feedbacks and conduct surveys, do follow-ups with the customers and request them to share their experiences and thoughts about their last visit to your branch.

Here are the most popular and most effective methods to collect customer feedback in the year 2021:

1. Customer Happiness Meters

Customer Happiness Meters are the most simplified form of collecting customer feedback. Usually, the feedback is taken in the form of a happiness scale which indicates how was the customer’s experience at the branch. The meter could range from 3 to 5 simple icons or emoticons or buttons. These inputs range from a visual representation of worst experience to great experience and in between usually followed up by a simple question such as “How was your experience today?” or “How well you were served today?” This type of feedback has the highest attempt rate.

To further improve the interaction you can also link your customer feedback system with your digital queue management system or CRM software to link the feedback to the customer who is providing the feedback and in case of negative feedback, your support staff could later contact them to learn more about their experience and to take more suggestions. Another simpler method is to request customers to input their contact details after submitting negative feedback, though this will reduce the feedback rate still it is a very effective method.

Usually, the customer happiness meter is installed in touch screens and tablets and placed on all counters, or at the entrance or exit points, where the customer can easily access it. Different businesses require different solutions.

2. Customer Feedback Surveys

Traditional surveys are always the best approach to get a deeper understanding of your customers experience and their expectations. But in today’s busy life who has time to conduct 30 minutes or 45 minutes long customer feedback survey? It requires a certain strategy to make people conduct such a long survey. However, these days single slide, or a few slide surveys are the most popular form. It also depends on which platform you are conducting the survey through. As usually on the website a popup with basic or no personal info and a one or two slide survey is the most efficient way to collect the feedback on a large scale from a very large audience.

Some surveys are targeted such as they are designed for a particular product or service and catered to a specific audience. Either through emails, SMS, social media, QR codes, etc. Such surveys have a lower rate but can provide very specific information. If you want to improve or evaluate a particular product or service you can use such surveys to collect feedback.

Of course, when it comes to the survey you might have tons of questions that you want to ask your customers, but you must have to make your survey short and precise. Here are a few tips you should consider while designing a customer feedback survey:

The first and very important point is to have a clear goal and objective of the survey
Ask only those questions which can help you with your goal
Avoid irrelevant and suggestive/leading questions
Use open-ended questions
Try to maintain a flow in the questions and arrange them with great care
Use very simple and easy-to-understand language
Avoid technical questions or complicated questions
Choose the answers wisely
Create interesting graphics for the slides
Create a closing slide or thanks message at the end of the survey

The customer feedback surveys can be transmitted on various communication channels, so sign-in or collecting the identification/personal information should be short and easy, also allow anonymous sign-ins for online surveys, this will ensure your audience that they can bluntly describe their emotions without any fear of being identified for the negative feedback.

3. Smartphone Applications

Smartphones are already surpassing the numbers of traditional computing. Especially in Dubai, UAE and all across the GCC, people often have high-end smartphones with internet connectivity. In UAE almost 90% of the population is using smartphones and have internet access. This lead to an entirely different trend, people tend to look up in the smartphone for everything from groceries to buying properties, everything is available on the internet just a few taps away in your mobile screen. People also tend to search for their common problems on the internet from let say their cat is not eating to headaches and illnesses symptoms, people are searching for everything through their smartphones.

This is the reason more than 90% of the businesses are also offering different services through their smartphone applications. As the year 2020 lead to a whole new online era, the market is also shifting its focus from more traditional to smart and online approaches. Smartphones applications are providing ease-of-access, comfort, convenience and they save a lot of time. You can offer small surveys on your mobile phone applications, let say if a customer is performing a certain task, at the end of that task you can ask them for their feedback, as the customer has recently used a specific feature so the chances are very high that they will also do the survey or feedback related to that.

4. Transactional Emails

This is also a great method to collect very precise and targeted customer feedback. The transactional emails are the emails that you send to your customers after doing any transaction or performing a certain task, such as I have visited my bank to update my contact details, after a day or two when the new information got registered they will also send me an email. Or for example, I have recently purchased a watch from Amazon and they sent me an email after the delivery. Did they ask me how where the product and my overall experience? Such emails are called transactional emails. They have a very good rate and people tend to do such surveys more often than any other email surveys. You can use such emails to ask them a few simple questions about their experience at the branch, bout the service agent’s behaviour, about the product or service itself or any such questions. But ask only relevant questions that will help you with your survey goal, do not make it complex or complicated, otherwise, people will not attempt it or even left it after a few slides.

5. Phone Calls

Although this is a bit traditional way to collect the feedback and it also involves multiple variables, but still the data we can collect is quite useful. You can utilize your existing call centre or support staff with a little bit of training to start calling customers and asking them for their opinions, try a little bit research, sort out all the customers as per their occupations, choose a suitable time accordingly to make the calls, avoid calls in the off hours, or weekends, or early morning. Ask your customers for their consent first before shooting out the questions, choose questions wisely, make them easy-to-understand, small, and subjective. Do not ask for personal information, just confirm the name and their visit schedule and ask them about their experience. It is always the best approach to call a customer on the very next day of their visit to your branch. If you will call them after some time, they might not respond well, or chances are you might fail to get their actual opinion, they might try to escape from the call and give you an only positive or neutral response.

6. Social Media Polls and Voting

Social Media platforms have completely transformed the marketing and communication landscape in Dubai, UAE. Everyone spends multiple hours on social media platforms in a single day. People get connected to their friends and relatives through social media platforms, they share their opinions, view news and consume all sort of information from these platforms. Usually, people feel more comfortable in giving their honest opinion and expressing their thoughts on social media platforms. If you utilize social media platforms you might be able to collect valuable customer feedback data from there.

But in social media there are certain things that you must understand before starting any campaign, the first and foremost important thing is that you should have to understand the particular social media platform which you are using let say, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or LinkedIn are the most popular social media platforms, all businesses have their presence there. People often do short polls and ask for other’s opinion through voting, or short questions with multiple options, single question surveys, etc. These are the most popular and most effective methods to collect customer feedback from these social media platforms in Dubai, UAE.

Conclusion

Before starting a customer feedback collection campaign you should determine the clear objectives and the goals of the data collection. Then choose the most appropriate method to collect your customers’ feedback. Prepare the questions and answers carefully, use open-ended questions, avoid suggestive or leading questions. Make it short and less time-consuming. Then gather all the feedbacks and sort them out accordingly, generate reports from the data you have collected either by a single channel or multiple channels. Then evaluate your current service delivery systems, mechanisms, queue management systems, customer flow and service delivery efficiency. In short, evaluate the entire customer journey and customer experience to determine how customer satisfaction can be further improved.

How should insurance company’s website look like?

In today’s digital landscape having a well-designed, interactive and up-to-date website is critical. No matter which industry you belong to or what kind of audiences you want to target, a website is crucial. If you are an insurance company located or operating in Dubai, UAE or any other part of the GCC, your website will act like an online reception which will be your first impression on a very large audience. As the statistical data reflects that almost 85% to 90% of the users don’t revert back to a website after having a bad experience.

The Presentation

No matter, how good your customer services are, how great your packages and plans are, or whatsoever, if you fail to express and explain that to a prospect then you can’t convert them. Same applies to the website as well, if your website’s looks and feels are not up to the mark and your website failed to present the relevant information then the chances are very less that any visitor will try to contact you through the contact page or form or any other CTA (call to action) button. This is why the look and feel or to be more technical user interface is very important if you want online conversions.

The Customer Satisfaction

A website is not only important in generating online leads but in order to sustain the existing customers, you should able be able to offer a reliable and convenient user experience through your website. As these days, the websites and smartphone apps dominate each and every aspect of our life. The in-depth integration of smartphones, internet and social media in our lifestyle demands an active presence on these platforms too. These are your digital assets and considered to be equally valuable as any other conventional corporate asset.

Basic Elements of an Insurance Company Website Look/UX

The website look or to be technical the UX/user interface is a very important part of the website. Yes, the functionality and other aspects are also critical but if a user doesn’t like or got confused by the first look of your website they might not bother to go further to explore the functionalities or the information in the internal pages. Here are the fundamentals of a web design for an insurance company:

1. Header

The header is the top section of a webpage, in 90% of the web designs, the header contains navigation or menu and logo of the company. There could be multiple menus, or you can say sub-menus in the header section, contact details, social media, links for other portals and such things can be placed in the header section. Some websites come with a sticky menu, which remains visible always at the top when you scroll down through the page.

2. Slider

The slider is a large section just below the header, it contains multiple slides, with tag lines, sales pitches, images/photos, links, etc. Some web designs include a video in this section too. As the header and the slider make up the first landing screen of the website, and whenever a user reaches to your website they view this section first. So, it should be catchy, attractive, informative, and engaging. Almost 80% of the users don’t even bother to scroll down if they don’t like the landing screen.

3. Body

The body section is what makes a large chunk of a web design. The body section can contain multiple sub-sections and a variety of presentations inside of it. As these days almost all of the websites are responsive, which means that the same website is compatible with multiple screen sizes and devices, such as PC/Laptops, MAC, iPhone, Android Phones, Tablets, etc. Hence, the body is usually fragmented in different sections which could cover the full screen or a large area of the screen when viewed. These sections can be used to market different products, show your business partners, achievements, introduction, client testimonials, news, etc and much more. All the information you want to put in a web design can be placed in the body section of the web page.

4. Footer

This is the very bottom of a web design, it usually contains, contact details, links to products/services, and other important links, such as privacy policy, terms of use, any other disclaimer or any such information.

In the majority of the web designs, the header and footer sections remain common for all of the internal web pages. Only the body section is different as it contains all the relevant information and materials for that particular web page.

Basic Traits of an Insurance Company Web Design

Now that we have established a clear understanding of the norms and customs of a standard web design, we will discuss the basic traits and features of an insurance company’s web design which makes them more effective and more customer-friendly.

Ease of Use

The insurance company’s web design should be very easy to use and less complicated than average web designs. Everyone needs insurance, no matter if you are a doctor or engineer or a professor or a plumber, you need insurance. So the web design should be prepared to keep in mind all sort of targeted audiences and different societal clusters. The website should be easy to navigate and easy to use with short and clear information. All common tasks should be very easy to access and perform. Tasks such as:

Applying for Coverage
Filling a Claim
Policy Change
Policy Terms and Conditions
FAQs

Are very important and most frequently requested tasks/information. They should be placed at a very visible place and should be very easy-to-access. Apart from that, the information structure itself should be very easy to understand and linked with relevant information. So, a user can access all the required information on a single page. All this can only be achieved if your web design is built by keeping in mind the user experience.

The Content

The insurance industry is very complex, with complex products and services structure, and all that comes with very complex terms and conditions, the users most often felt deceived by the insurance providers, it is only because they failed to opt for a correct policy. All that can be prevented if you prepare a user-centric content, ask your existing customers about their first experience, and their current observations of your products and services. Such as:

What do they think when searching for an insurance policy?
What do they want to ask before signing up?
Do they have any ambiguity now after the sign-up?

Try to think from a common man’s perspectives, put yourself in the place of a naïve prospect, who don’t know much about the business and is desperately seeking a solution. Then prepare the content accordingly and try to answer as many questions as you could, but do not make the content too long or too complex, avoid technical terminologies, speak the simple and plain language. Try to educate your visitors. Give them a sense of trust and comfort.

Choice and Freedom

Give your visitors choice and freedom, give them a sense of control. Insurance policies are complex, and unfortunately, the majority of the general public couldn’t effectively differentiate from one policy to another. Let them choose from different plans, but make sure they all look different. Provide side-by-side comparisons of different policies, claims and risks and other attributes of the policy. Try to summarize a policy in the shortest possible form in a simple and easy to understand language. Consult with your sales staff, ask them about their experiences and then prepare the content accordingly. Case studies, real-life examples, and such materials also help a lot in building the trust factor and easing the customer’s frustration.

Suggestion and Advice

When a visitor reached your website either through an online search or social media or adverts or anything, the first thing they will seek is professional advice and suggestion. Try to dive into the customer’s mind, try to think from their perspective and then decide what kind of advice or suggestion could help them solve their problems. Purchasing an insurance policy is not entirely a business decision but customer’s emotions are also attached to it, they want to protect their life, health, future, family, vehicles and other valuables. The stacks are very high for them, so try to provide such advice and suggestion which can build a sense of trust, freedom of choice, and overall a positive impact on customers mind. Be very specific and very clear, do not try to hide anything or sugarcoat anything, be direct and blunt with your content, information structure and other materials.

Conclusion

Your website strategy is the most crucial part of your overall online strategy. It could easily build or destroy your brand image and reputation. The website strategy has to be built on the bases of intensive research. First of all do specify your objectives clearly, then do the research, take interviews or conduct surveys among your sales staff, product managers, internal management, customers or whoever you can talk to. Consult a professional web design agency in Dubai, UAE such as RSI Concepts. Prepare content and set up the navigational structure as per your priorities.

It is important to prepare all the details and content first and then move to the actual web design so that your design could be able to accommodate all the content, and you do not require unnecessary revisions. Web design for insurance companies should be very user-friendly, and easy to navigate. The content should be easily understandable with precise information. Think from the customer point of view and build up a customer journey accordingly. The overall web design should be interactive and engaging.

How Queue Management System Helps to Provide Better Customer Service

Before we jump into the topic “How queue management system helps to provide better customer service” we should discuss why good customer service and customer experience is important for a business. In modern society the market is completely changed, all the 2 decades-old books and materials are somehow unable to define today’s market trends and customer behaviour. Today a customer has tens of options to choose from, online marketing, social media and platforms have their impact too. Having a wonderful customer experience and a great customer service delivery is so critical to sustaining a loyal customer base which ensures steady growth.

If a customer is repeatedly getting annoyed from your services delivery mechanisms and their experience at the branch the chances are very high that they will switch to another service provider, even if they might have to travel a bit more to reach the branch and they might have to pay a bit extra, they will going to do that. So, customer service delivery experience is critical for your business.

How Queue Management System Improves Customer Service Delivery Experience?

Now, how come a queue management system can help to provide better customer service and a great customer experience? Well, the answer is quite simple, less wait time, and fast service delivery makes an excellent customer experience. No one likes to stand in the long queues, with the help of a queue management system your customers can sit calmly in the waiting area until their turn comes, this also opens a door to a wider range of activities that can help you to engage your customers to make the waiting time more pleasant and easy. You can also market new products and services using wide screens, print media and much more.

How Queue Management System Reduces Wait Time?

By managing the customer flow effectively a queue management system can reduce the wait time by 20% to 60% in various applications. The queue management systems can automatically route the visitors to their designated server/counter, in case if a customer mistakenly got a queue for the wrong service than the service delivery agent can immediately put them in the correct queue and they don’t have to wait again. The queue management system can automatically call in the next customer when a counter got free, this also saves a lot of time. The customers/visitors feel more comfortable if an estimated time to their turn is provided, this also reduces the frustration of waiting for an unknown time period.

Queue Management System provides an Opportunity to Communicate

Large screens and multimedia displays are an essential part of a queue management system. These screens have the ability to not only display the queuing data but also a large space for the marketing and informational content to be presented directly to the customers in the waiting area. As customers/visitors more often look at the screen to see what token number is currently serving and when their turn is expected so, any type of content on that screen or next to that screen will automatically get their attention. Businesses can provide information that can help their customers or adverts for their new products/services or latest offers. This is not only good for generating more leads, but it also reduce the frustration of waiting time.

Queue Management System Improves Service Quality

It is very obvious that if a customer reaches to a counter with the frustration of long wait time or any such inconvenience, they will be stressed out, hence they will be less understanding and less tolerated. Which could also impact on their interaction with the server or agent. But if a customer/visitor had a good time and less hustle in waiting then they will be calm and happy while they reach to the counter. This will automatically create a positive environment and the service quality will be improved automatically. A good customer flow management also ensures less burden on the serving staff and agents, which also ensures good interaction with the customers. Hence the service quality improves.

Conclusion

A queue management system helps to provide better customer service by reducing the wait time, improving the customer flow, enhancing the customer experience and reducing the workload of the agents/servers. It also provides businesses with an opportunity to improve the waiting time experienced by offering interesting/relevant information and marketing content along with the queuing details. Which also minimizes the wait time effects. Queue management systems not only improve the customer journey and service quality but it also provides vital statistical and usage data. This data can be used to make decisions to further improve customer experience and service quality.

5 Paramount Needs of Queue Management System for Schools and Colleges

In this blog, we will discuss 5 paramount needs of a queue management system for schools, colleges and educational institutions. The management at the educational sector most often neglect the digital queue management systems at their premises which usually results in unorganized long queues with a lot of complaints. But as the student enrollment department, student affairs and internal management offices occasionally got large crowds so they most often don’t collect data of the customer flow in these departments. Apart from that, there are so many reasons that the management at educational institutions don’t invest in the queue management systems.

Here are the 5 paramount need of a queue management system for schools and colleges:

1. Customer Flow Management at Student Enrollment Offices

At student enrollment offices usually, a large crowd could be formed due to short deadlines, or most people do enrollment a few days prior to the last day. Which could cause long queues, with unmanaged students waiting in the lines. The staff is usually not enough to handle such a large amount of visitors, so mismanagement of the customer flow is inevitable. A smart digital queue management system can easily solve this problem.

2. Queue Management System Improves Brand Image

A proper customer flow management with an efficient queue management system can not only help the staff to manage large crowd but it also improves the brand image among the customers/visitors and students. Especially at admission offices, receptions, and admin offices where students, new candidates, parents, teachers, and visitors most often interact with the school or college, having a proper queue management system could help you improve your image and impression.

3. Queue Management System Improves Customer Experience

Students and parents who are coming for new admissions are usually visiting multiple schools/colleges or institutes to choose best for themselves and their children. So whenever they are visiting an institute they start comparing each and everything they have interacted with. If they notice a large unmanaged or the poorly managed crowd at the office, they will immediately get a negative impression, this could also impact their final decision. Of course, there are a lot much that people consider while making such decisions but such things could also have a huge impact.

4. Queue Management System Saves Time

The queue management system can save a lot of time by reducing service delivery and wait time. Having a queuing solution in student affairs, admission offices, admin offices, and other internal departments could save a lot of valuable time for both the students and the teachers. As in schools and colleges, the classes schedules and other activities’ schedules are very tight, usually back to back with a short break after a few hours, this means that the students specifically have very limited time to visit internal departments for their regular tasks. As those tasks often have a deadline, so the students, mostly skip their classes to attend to such matters. Which is very bad for their education. This is why a queue management system could help reduce or completely eliminate such issues, and could save a lot of time.

5. Queue Management System Provides Statistical Data and Insight

No matter whatever industry you belonged to, if you are using a good queue management system it will collect vital data for your business and provide you with a detailed insight of all your services, customer behaviour, customer journey, staff efficiency and much more. In case of educational institutions such as schools, colleges, universities, and other institutes, the statistical data which provides insight of customer journey, service delivery time, wait time, staff performance and visitor traffic could be really helpful in future planning and decision making to improve the overall service delivery mechanisms.

Conclusion

These are the 5 paramount needs of a queue management system for schools and colleges. Obviously, a queue management system has so many benefits and can help the management in understanding the current service delivery mechanisms and customer journey. This helps them to take decisions to improve various processes and overall the brand image. The brand image can directly impact your business in both positive and negative ways. Especially in Dubai and other Emirates of UAE where the competition is very high and the general population is very well educated, your brand image could make or break your business over the night. Having satisfied customers means more business. And a queue management system, if installed correctly in all required places, could give you a competitive edge you can never even imagined before.

Importance of Queue Management System in 2021 for Schools and Colleges

The queue management systems are largely ignored by schools, colleges and other educational facilities. The administrations usually don’t pay much attention to the visitor’s flow and queue management in student-related services. Even most of the time people are complaining about the long queue and prolonged waiting time in the student enrollment area. Usually, the administration thinks that enrollment is once in a year event, but at the same time, it could be the very first impression of your school or college on the parents and students. So it is very important to have a productive and comfortable environment during that period.

As the year 2020 completely transformed our living and working practices. So, the year 2021 will be a new era with new norms and new standards. Maintaining social distancing will be an unspoken rule. Businesses all around the world will try to improve their sales by implementing latest technologies to improve customers experience, the customers’ expectations would be changed, and require more attention to minute details if you want to compete and grow in 2021. Technologies like queue management systems and digital customer flow management can help to build trust and improving customer/visitor experience. Although the queue management systems were considered to be very important for the service industry now they will become essential. Because an efficient queuing system is the only available technology that can help businesses manage the crowd effectively and implement new policies in their waiting areas. As for the schools, colleges, universities and other educational institutions having an efficient queue management system will not only ensure a cost-effective solution to manage the large crowd and customer/visitor flow but it will also help them improve their service delivery mechanisms. In the nutshell, the queue management system will be an essential part of any kind of service industry in 2021. Especially for the schools, colleges, universities and other educational institutions, the queue management system could be very helpful in managing crowds and large customers/visitors flow.

Queue Management System at Student Enrollment Office

I still remember when I was trying to get admission I have visited multiple universities and for one particular institute there was a huge crowd, no line or queues, and the staff was completely helpless to manage everyone, people were jumping the lines and all that. I thought, “If this university is unable to manage this, how would they be in managing other student affairs and academics itself.” This is how people usually think, so having a great first impression is also very important.

Queue Management System at Canteens/Food Courts

In schools and colleges the students will have to face long queues and waiting times, during their lunch breaks, especially if the canteen or hall is small then there would be large queues and crowd waiting for their turns. Most of the time students don’t report such issues, sometimes parents/teachers may complain about it if they notice the students are not taking part in games or play or any such activity during the break. It is because the students will have to stay in the queue and by the time they got their turn, there is no time left for play and other activities. So, this has to be managed properly with a proper digital queue management system.

Queue Management System at Student Affairs and Internal Offices

Students often have to visit different departments especially in colleges and universities where the students are doing a lot many things independently. Such as admission office, transport office, accounts, etc. In such places, an efficient queue management system can save a lot of time. Most of the time students take leave from their scheduled classes to sort things out in such places, and as these offices are operating independently then the students might have to skip a class just to go there and wait in a long queue, this could also impact their studies, so it is very important to have a queue management system and controlled customer/student flow in those offices.

Queue Management System at Libraries

Some large schools, colleges and universities could also face long queues at entrances, and even there could be some days when more free periods are aligned from different disciplines which could lead a crowd in the library or during the exams season. So, having an efficient queue management system is important to prevent any waste of time for the students. Usually, at book return counters, there are always large queues, because in most of the libraries the return counters are fewer. So, a queue management system can not only help the students but also the librarians and clerical staff.

Conclusion

The year 2020 has completely changed the common perception of masses. Now whenever we have to visit any public place, we first think about the interaction and social distancing, etc. That is not all, as the pandemic is also about to an end as does the year 2020. But in the year 2021, the businesses and organizations shouldn’t think that the current mindset will simply be switched off and things will be similar like they were in the year 2019. Maintaining a better customer experience with your current business practices might not be sufficient enough. The competition will also be higher, so if business and organizations want to sustain their existing customers and also want to grow in the year 2021 then they should have to adopt an out of the box approach to provide a great customer experience, what else could be more effective than an efficient queue management system at your premises. Similar also applies to the schools, colleges, universities and educational institutions. Parents and students are more concerned about their safety than ever before, everyone including me and you tries to avoid crowds and congested places, especially no one likes to stand in the long queue. Businesses should have to invest more in improving the customer experience if they want to grow in the year 2021 and queue management systems could be a great investment.

10 Impacts of Website Design on Digital Marketing Strategies

In this blog, we will discuss 10 impacts of a website design or digital marketing strategies. Every business wants to have a website that drives huge traffic and also encourages visitors to convert. The conversion means making a visitor click on a call to action button, whether it is a purchase button or a contact button, depends upon your business model. This is how online prospects convert to lead and later to a customer. Usually, the web designers in Dubai, UAE and the businesses too are not paying that much attention to the web design to utilize it as a powerful marketing tool, rather business is focused on advertisements, social media and other stuff. But a web design can have a huge impact on a customer’s decision making.

A web design comprises of multiple elements such as fonts, colour scheme, placements of different design elements, Call-to-Action (CTA), videos, images, and much more. When you are making a digital marketing plan for your brand, your web design should be a very important part of it. Because your web design will determine how users will interact with your brand in the online domain, and what they will perceive of your brand image from that interaction. Here are the 10 impacts of website design on digital marketing strategies:

1. Colour Scheme

Obviously, when choosing a colour scheme for a web design the website designer will have to play within the available spectrum of the colours of the logo of the brand. But changing colour on some important elements, such as changing the colour of the CTA (call-to-action) button could do wonders. For example, some companies have changed their CTA button’s colour from green to red or blue to yellow and noticed a significant change in online sales, the change could be as minor as 1.5% and as large as 20% increase. But it could also backfire, so be careful. The best approach is to always be prepared for the change, and try different things one after another. A pilot or soft launch could be a great solution to minimize such risks in your digital marketing strategy.

2. Videos and Animations

These days as the high-speed broadband and 4G, LTE, 5G are available for the general population, having videos and intensive graphics is not a big deal anymore. Especially the videos or animated presentation of whatever you are selling could increase your sales from 5% to 30%. People love to watch videos and they get bored with large textual details. Having videos for B2B have proven to be more effective than B2C. Videos are more detailed, fun to watch, less boring and can deliver a huge load of information in just a few minutes. Using videos and animations strategically can boost your online sales.

3. Visible UVP

The visible UVP or unique value proposition is a key to success for online digital marketing campaigns. Whether it is an online advert, social media posts, or your corporate website. Your unique value proposition should be visible like a floodlight in the dark night.

Why the visitor should choose your brand?
What value will your solution or product add to their lives?
How what you are offering is different than others?
How cost-effective your solution/product or service is?
What financial and operational benefits they should expect from your solution/product or service?

These questions need to be answered by your web design, and by the answer, I mean short and very effective language, not long essays and tons of boring texts. Taglines, sales pitches, or small sentences could do great.

4. Trust Symbols

Trust symbols are very important in user experience. When users will see different badges, client’s logos, partner’s logos, and stuff like that, they will get a sense of trust and they can assure your visitors that your solution/products or service will help them to fulfil their needs. Not only that you can have security badges, privacy policy, and such other symbols. Industry symbols, such as if you are in a service industry, ISO certifications, or any such thing. The main objective is to provide a trustworthy appearance so that the visitors feel safe in contacting you and can build a positive reputation of your brand in their minds.

5. Client Testimonials and Ratings

Although the client testimonials and Ratings also came under Trust Symbol category we should consider them more important than other trust signs or symbols. The client testimonials for B2B business could be a great point to gain the trust of the visitor. In case if you are in B2C than the testimonials with product/service ratings could help you a lot in getting more leads from the website. The client testimonials could support your overall digital marketing strategy too by sharing them in other communication mediums and social media platform, you can get more attention.

6. Ease of Use and Navigation

How easy to find required information is on your website will determine how much sales you will make from the website. Always put useful information at the top, don’t push your visitors to scroll long pages, navigate through deep menus to find what they need. The placement of information and the navigation of the website should be very easy for a common visitor. The navigation should be very easy and less deep, one main menu and two sub-menu are more than enough. Web designers in Dubai, UAE are also using side-menus, mouse hover effects and much more to make the information more accessible.

7. Forms and Inputs

No one wants to fill in the large forms with their personal and official information, just make it short. Don’t push them to fill-in large forms, as there are many studies conducted on the visitor’s behaviour about the contact forms, and all suggested, maximum 3, 4 fields are enough. Any more fields in the form will make it less likely to file, especially if it is a contact form or sales enquiry form, let the visitors do the minimum. In sales enquiry forms, pre-fill maximum details and let them choose via tick markers or dropdowns, and that should be it.

8. Visible Contact Details

The contact details should be very visible, your contact numbers, emails, address, maps/directions, working hours, and all those details should be easily accessible through your website. Header and footer could be a great place to provide such information. If a visitor likes something the very next thing they do is to look up for a CTA or contact details to get in touch with your business, so all those information should be easy to access from anywhere in the website.

9. Virtual Chat or Live Chat

These days another most common sighting is Virtual Chat or Live Chat module on the website. People are getting used to of it, as most of the big service providers are providing live chat facility on their website. If maintaining a live chat is hard for your business then at least an intelligent virtual chatbot could serve the purpose. You can answer frequently asked questions (FAQs) of your visitors. You can also take their contact details or share your contact details of the relevant department with them.

10. White Spaces

Unnecessary white spaces or useless gaps on the web page makes it look ugly and substandard. Your webpage canvas is a valuable space for you, do not waste it. As the wide gaps and white spaces are not advised, the superimposed or overlapping web elements also make a website design looks bad and the visitors could feel cramped and uncomfortable. Avoid such things in your web design. Put all the elements in a way that they look connected, well-spaced and aligned. Do not scatter them on a white canvas.

Conclusion

The websites are an essential part of modern digital marketing strategy. A website designs could make or ruin a user experience, hence the sales. Make your purchase cycle simplest and easiest. Think from the visitors’ point of view. The best way is to do a survey and gather feedback from your existing customers as well as form your prospects. Take care of responsiveness and cross-platform compatibility. Your website should offer the same user experience on all devices whether it is a laptop/desktop, smartphone, tablet, windows, apple iOS, MAC, whatever device your user is using to access you, should offer the same user experience. Make your website more search engine friendly, to attract more organic traffic. But one thing we should keep in mind is that no matter how we are getting visitors on our website, ultimately the website itself will be the biggest influence in the decision making of a prospect.
