The Client

This client provides hardware and software systems that manage an extensive music catalog for retail environments. Tens of thousands of songs across many genres are customized through a web portal and delivered to each store through a proprietary networked receiver and speaker array.

The Challenge

Installation requests were piling up faster than the client could fulfill them. The bottleneck was getting technicians up to speed on the detailed install requirements of their audio technology. They needed more installs, with less hand-holding, to meet demand.
