2.5x vs 1x revenue with gamified training
Scandinavia has a rich history of producing some of the most desirable furniture in the world. Norwegian retailer Bohus is a proud torchbearer of that legacy, with a mixture of classic and contemporary styles built to exceptional standards.
In late 2020, the company planned to launch an update to one of its flagship lines, with ambitious sales targets to match. In order to meet them, Bohus’ sales staff would need a detailed knowledge of the new models on offer.
Bohus needed an effective, measurable, and accessible method of product training. One that could roll out quickly and deliver on time. Having previously used a mix of classrooms, videos, and e-learning with mixed results, the team opted to try something different.
Attensi SKILLS offered Bohus a different solution
As a mobile-first training solution, Attensi SKILLS allowed Bohus staff to sharpen their product knowledge through a device they were already comfortable with – their phones. With a range of mini-games and interactive scenarios, the sales teams were tested on the key differences between product types and key selling points of the top models.
All of these were playable through a dedicated smartphone app, which could be downloaded to employees’ own devices. As with all Attensi gamified simulation training, the modules were designed to be repeated, with points and scoreboards included to encourage a little friendly competition.
The training was launched just 12 days ahead of the new range’s launch. Over the course of the 6-week training period that followed, more than 500 staff were certified and over 90% completed every module.
