So your business has Free WiFi. But not everything seems to be going according to plan. What gives?
Setting yourself up with Free WiFi in the first place isn’t always enough. There’s a wide set of problems businesses often face when dealing with WiFi.
To help you out, let’s take a look at four common problems business face with Free WiFi.
Problem #1: Speed
The biggest problem businesses encounter with WiFi? In this author’s opinion, it’s speed. (Or rather lack thereof.) A slow Internet connection can really hamper the user experience and lead to frustration. You don’t want that. Even if the customer is understanding, this can put them in the wrong mindset. And the wrong mindset might not be very conducive toward making a purchase.
The solution: Ultimately, it’s comes down to how much bandwidth you’re paying for. You don’t need to break the bank. You just need to know how much to spend. Courtesy of Technibble, check out this article on estimating how much bandwidth you’ll need.
Problem #2: Forgotten Passwords
There’s no reason to be juggling a WiFi password around. It’s not convenient for you or your customer. Asking/looking for a password is a hassle most customers want to avoid. Many customers won’t even bother attempting to access the WiFi if it’s password protected.
The solution: A quick, one-time login. Using an email address, phone number, or social media account, you can make it so that customers can login to your WiFi hassle-free, and just once! How? It’s not hard at all. All you need is a service like CoGoBuzz. (Read ahead to learn more.)
