This case study aims to demonstrate how the integration of Linkia’s self-service kiosks in a major movie theater company resulted in higher customer spending. By analyzing key metrics, such as average transaction value, concession sales, and ancillary service purchases, we will illustrate the financial impact and return on investment (ROI) achieved through this implementation.

A major movie theater company deployed Linkia’s self-service kiosks across its theater locations. The kiosks were strategically placed in easily accessible areas, offering customers a user-friendly interface to purchase tickets, select seats, and customize their movie experience.

Results:

Increased Transaction Efficiency: Self-service kiosks significantly reduced waiting times compared to traditional ticket counters. The streamlined ticketing process led to improved customer satisfaction and an increase in overall ticket sales.

Higher Average Transaction Value: Customers using self-service kiosks demonstrated a higher average transaction value compared to those using traditional counters. The convenience of the kiosks encouraged customers to explore add-on services, such as premium seating, concessions, and loyalty programs, resulting in increased spending per transaction.

Enhanced Concession Sales: The self-service kiosks provided targeted upselling prompts during the ticketing process, driving higher concession sales. Customers were more likely to add extra items, upgrade sizes, or opt for combo deals, thereby increasing their overall spending on concessions.

Personalized Recommendations: The interactive interfaces of the kiosks allowed for personalized movie suggestions and recommendations, encouraging customers to explore a wider range of movie options. This personalized approach led to increased ticket sales for a variety of films, ultimately contributing to higher customer spending.

Positive Customer Feedback: Customer feedback regarding the self-service kiosks was overwhelmingly positive. The convenience, ease of use, and self-guided ticketing process were highly praised, resulting in improved customer satisfaction, increased loyalty, and a higher likelihood of repeat visits.

Return on Investment (ROI): The movie theater company calculated a favorable ROI by analyzing the increase in customer spending attributed to the self-service kiosks. The additional revenue generated through higher ticket sales and concession purchases outweighed the initial investment in implementing the kiosk technology.

The successful integration of Linkia’s self-service kiosks in a major movie theater company effectively increased customer spending. By offering a seamless, personalized, and efficient ticketing and concession experience, the company witnessed improved customer satisfaction and loyalty. The convenience of the kiosks, coupled with targeted upselling prompts and personalized movie recommendations, led to higher transaction values and increased sales across various revenue streams. The positive customer feedback and favorable ROI highlight the viability of self-service kiosks as a valuable marketing tool in the movie theater industry. Movie theater companies looking to boost customer spending should consider implementing self-service kiosks to elevate the overall movie-going experience.
