Lift and Learn with ASK: Taking the challenges of staffing into account while amplifying the expertise of store employees, lift and learn with ASK allows for product discovery as well as easy-to-access sales assistance without the need for a dedicated sales associate to be located nearby. Configured at GITEX to showcase some of impressive range of mobile devices available at e&, lift and learn with ASK is an enhanced version of the lift and learn digital solution that incorporates forms of guided selling — product lift and learn, informative shelf edge displays, in-store assisted selling as well as remote expert assistance.
