Your Clients expect WiFi

We have all been to venues where there are ‘follow-us’ signs for the latest Social Media platform or offers to win the latest i-pad in exchange for your contact details. The fact is increasingly people are expecting to be able to access the internet from all kinds of places from Coffee shops to supermarkets and if you are in the entertainment business (pubs clubs hotels etc) its quite frankly a must have.

So why would you give away free WiFi ? Lots of reasons but we thought we would pull a few together in our latest blog. slidethreeWiFi allows businesses such as cafes, pubs and restaurants to attract customers which they would not have attracted in the past. From experience we all know that sitting alone in a café or bar is an awkward experience and discourages us from  sitting alone on a regular basis.In a recent poll 53% of people surveyed would be happy to sit alone in a cafe if WiFi was available. Free WiFi access helps people connect with friends online and removes the stigma of sitting alone. Using social platforms like Foursquare or Swarm may even bring their friends and connections to your venue.

WiFi networks require a registration process for new users. This process requires new users to supply basic details in order to create an account, this could include name, age, gender and email address. You could even request additional details as people login for a second time thus building a profile of your users that will allow you to better target their needs next time they attend – Birthdays are an easy one – an offer to bring 10 friends in exchange for a welcome drink or maybe a Birthday cake is good business!

wifi Coffee CupPeople base their decisions on which venue to chose on many criteria. Free WiFi is one of those criteria having the service will help differentiate your business from your competitors

Installing a WiFi Hotspot does not involve the costs that some businesses would imagine for example a business will spend a huge amount on a television subscription to play the latest football matches to attract customers yet many companies (including MBM) will supply the WiFi dish for FREE (with a small installation cost). Managing the collected  data collected can also be a daunting prospect but here at MBM for a monthly management fee of around 50p per day we will work with you to collate your data for you to use in future targeted campaigns.

Are you just putting up with a slow broadband connection ?

If you’ve ever experienced a slow internet connection or the loss of your connection for an hour or two, you’ll understand just how frustrating it can be.

MBM_42Emails_Blog_smallWe use the Internet so frequently during our working day to send and receive emails, for research and information, to access documents or software within the Cloud and so on; that we forget what it would be like to work if we didn’t have it at all.

So why do so many businesses whose core activity is so dependent on a good internet connection, put up with a slow one that can’t cope with their business’s usage or one that’s intermittently up and down?

MBM’s Business Broadband Service

MBM’s Business Broadband service is supplied using four of the best broadband networks in the UK: BT, TalkTalk, Cable & Wireless an Opal Telecom. Using four networks means that we can offer our customers the best broadband service that is available in their location.

If reliability is key, we offer a pair of broadband services supplied over different networks so if one service goes down, the second service steps in thereby minimising disruption to your business.

And if you have a problem, you don’t wait in a call queue – you simply ring MBM.
