Retail locations are very concerned with the amount of traffic coming in and out of stores on a daily basis. Historically, one way to measure this has been to put a person at the store entrance with a clicker to manually record each new person that enters the store, but store owners are anxious to replace this archaic method with smarter and less invasive technical solutions.
Deliverables
Propose a technical solution that gives a store the ability to measure:
1) The number of people coming into your store on any given day
2) The duration of each customer’s visit
3) How often individual customers return to the store each month

- Meets Deliverables
