Music can be used in a variety of ways in the retail environment.
From music across the store with in-house radio, or TVs playing for
the benefit of customers or staff, to the radio in the back office and
the music used on your telephone on hold system, music can have
many uses within your business.
When the customers left the store they were asked about the
music; many of them could not recall hearing any. This shows
the power music has to influence your customers.
Morale and performance
Music can also be a great way to improve the morale and
performance of your staff. Research has shown that
employees can find music very stimulating:
When fast music was played:
‘The music was very motivating’
‘The music was really lively and improved work’
‘There was a good atmosphere’
When no music was played:
‘It was boring’
‘I felt lethargic’
Purchasing choice
Music can be a great tool to help enhance the perception of your
shop or store. It can impact on customer purchasing choice and
improve the morale and performance of your staff.
