Key takeaways

  • Order at the window
  • Passengers informed
  • Fewer missed buses
  • Peak data

01What owners tell you

Travellers need a seat on a specific departure. A crowd at the window blocks the people who are about to miss their bus.

  • Passengers crowd the window before departures.
  • Luggage and parcels share the line.
  • Staff shout departure times.
  • Seat sales and refunds mix.
  • No data on travel peaks.

02The words that sell

Owners do not buy equipment. They buy the day they want to have. These are the outcomes to talk about when you pitch a queue system to booking office.

Order at the windowNumbers for booking, parcels and refunds.
Passengers informedDepartures on screen.
Fewer missed busesUrgent travellers first.
Peak dataPlan buses.

03Say it like this

Short, plain lines work best. Use them as they are or put them in your own words.

  • “Your passengers take a number for tickets, parcels or refunds.”
  • “Your window will not be crowded when a bus is leaving.”
  • “Your departures will be on the screen, so staff stop shouting.”
  • “You will see which routes and hours are busiest.”

04Your 30-second pitch

Say this when you have the owner's attention at the counter. Stop after the question and let them answer.

Key takeaway“Your passengers take a number for tickets, parcels or refunds. Your window will not be crowded when a bus is leaving. Your departures will be on the screen, so staff stop shouting. Can I measure your windows this week and send you a written quote?”
