Presently for Pet Stores

Digital signage built for independent pet stores

Pet owners are decision-fatigued: forty food brands, conflicting advice, and a dog that ate something weird again. The store that guides them earns the basket and the loyalty.

Read the full guide

Presently puts guidance on screen where the decisions happen: food-transition explainers in the kibble aisle, grooming and training promos routed to the owners most likely to book.

Why a static display falls short in a store

Food questions eat your staff's day

Grain-free or not, puppy vs. adult, the same five questions every hour. Screen content answers the common ones in the aisle so staff time goes to the complicated ones.

Services hide behind the register

Grooming, nail trims, training classes. High-margin, repeat-visit services that many customers never learn you offer. A screen near the entrance fixes that on every visit.

The big-box price war is unwinnable

You will not beat chain prices on commodity kibble. You win on expertise, services, and the premium and local brands they do not carry, exactly the content a smart screen promotes.

What the screen shows, by who walks up

Presently detects approximate audience signals (age range, gender) with on-device computer vision, picks the best-matching content from your library, and discards the camera frame immediately. Raw images are not stored or transmitted; optional dashboards use aggregate rollups only.

Where to place the first screens in a store

Start at a decision point you can measure. One useful screen with a clear job is better than several screens repeating the same loop.

Food decision aisle

Answer one common transition or life-stage question at a time without replacing staff guidance for health concerns.

Service and grooming desk

Make availability, preparation, and rebooking steps visible while owners wait.

Entry feature zone

Use the first screen for events, new-owner checklists, and store services rather than supplier ads.

Three campaigns to run first

Give each campaign one audience, one action, and one success measure. Keep the first test live long enough to compare against a clean baseline.

New-puppy checklist

Group essentials into a useful sequence and track complete starter baskets instead of single-item clicks.

Grooming rebook

Run the prompt only near the grooming handoff and include the recommended return window.

Local brand story

Feature one maker, product purpose, and trial-size option for a defined two-week campaign.

Try it: tap who walks up

This is the same routing logic that runs on the device. Pick a customer and watch the display pick the creative.
