Websites VS Human knowledge;

Bricks-and-Mortar retail is hard enough, most SME’s haven’t the resources to keep websites up-to-date, or remain on top of search engine results every month.

The human mind is the most updated resource every indigenous business has; be it suppliers inventory, catalogues, producers. product in showroom, in warehouse.

Even the best of indigenous websites will not beat local staff’s knowledge of product availability or suitability.

Use losume as that quick human & real-time interface.

‘Generation screen’

  • too busy, less time.
  • less local knowledge (new to area).
  • mobile first (be visible to younger consumers).
  • mobility – cost, time, ability to travel and visit stores.
  • mobile-first! a generational shift.

Meet your customer in a way big-ecommerce cannot.

Different yet simple. The feedback is fab! and we listen to everyone polishing as we go. Want a demo?, say via the contact link above..
