Dry Cleaners Take Control of Amazon Echo Screens
What-you-see-is-what-you-get (WYSIWYG) has never been easier.
Running a dry cleaning business is challenging. How do you find new customers that need your service? How do you remind your customers about your business and brand? How do you create a magical customer experience for each and every customer?
Let’s talk about Amazon’s Alexa.
Amazon Alexa is a virtual assistant that uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to help your dry cleaning business and answer your customers’ requests. Just like web and mobile, your business can increase awareness by having a presence on Amazon Alexa.
Did you know 20% of US adults use smart speakers?
Did you know that 1/3 of smart speaker owners want to contact customer service departments by voice?
Customer service is simply an early iteration of what we call customer experience today. That customers are interested in leveraging their voice assistants as service vehicles in their lives should have every brand hurrying to meet their customers where they are.
Why

How
What-you-see-is-what-you-get (WYSIWYG) is becoming more popular in SaaS companies today. Companies such as WordPress, Invocable, etc. make it easy for business owners to use technology to the benefit of their business. The more a business owner can customize their website, app, or Alexa Skill, the more empowered they become to create a magical customer experience.Let’s say you went on UpWork and hired a developer to build your Alexa Skill. the developer worked hard, followed all of your requirements, and was very receptive to feedback. They even published your Alexa Skill without a hitch. How awesome! Next month your brand decides they want to update your marketing material with some new images. Your team creates some beautiful new marketing material to advertise your FREE pickup and delivery service. You want to add the images to the Alexa Skill your developer built. So, what do you do? Do you re-hire the developer and pay them to make the changes? Do you hire a new developer to make the changes for you? Maybe you try to dig around the code and make the changes yourself? What if you could use WYSIWYG to add new marketing material by clicking one button? Now, with VoiceDryCleaner.com, you have the power to create a magical customer experience without having to hire a developer.
