We are excited to welcome two new staff members to the SenSource team, Chris Listorti, Technical Sales Representative and Tony Valenzisi, Project Manager!

Chris is a great compliment to the sales department, with a positive attitude and eagerness to learn and solve complexities. She takes a proactive approach to research, create and build new client relationships. Chris brought with her a wealth of prior sales and customer service experience and knowledge.

Tony is a prime match to manage large projects with his profound organizational skills and an eye for detail. He’s the “go-to man” for organizing large client rollouts and acts as the liaison between SenSource technical staff, installers in the field and client executives.

We are fortunate to gain two new employees and anticipate a progressive future for SenSource as we continue to expand.

We had success in the Lone Star State as we exhibited for the first time at the Texas Library Association Annual Conference, TXLA, in Houston this month. We were pleased to meet over 170 enthusiastic librarians and library workers while demonstrating our latest patron counting technology, the PC-VID2-N Stereo Video Patron Counter.

TXLA attracted over 7,000 attendees and over 285 exhibitors to the George R. Brown Convention Center for four days of speaker sessions, educational programs and library vendor exhibits.

Thank you to everyone who visited the SenSource booth! We look forward to hearing from you again soon.

The Wi-Fi version of our popular battery-powered people counter has undergone advancements to make it even easier to collect data over your Wi-Fi network. Now, the Sensor Server data receiver is a downloadable software application rather than a hardware unit, requiring less hardware.

Benefits of this upgrade include:

●  More cost effective solution

●  Less hardware required onsite

●  Easy initial installation

●  Eliminate points of failure

●  Remote upgrades for virtual Sensor Server software

This upgrade attests to our mission to provide innovative solutions enabling our customers to operate more efficiently and effectively. Contact us to receive pricing and learn how the TB12N-W can benefit your facility.

Anyone following retail news can attest to the need for in-store analytics. Retailers are bridging the gap between online and brick-and-mortar analytics. Knowledge is power – and that goes for store traffic knowledge too.

SenSource Sales Manager, Dan Aluise describes SalesFloor Live as, “a simple way for businesses to make powerful decisions by looking at the entire picture of their company, not just pieces of the puzzle.” Aluise details further, “Monitoring foot traffic as sales opportunities is a big piece of that picture. When a customer streams foot traffic data with staffing levels, inventory turns, employee sales performance along with vertical and horizontal trends it is easy to see a total operational health check on the company.”

We are honored to be selected to serve on National Retail Federation’s Associate Member Advisory Council (AMAC). SenSource has been a member of NRF since 2006 and exhibits annually at the NRF Convention and Expo. By majority vote of the AMAC, SenSource was invited to serve on the Council.

“It’s important for the NRF to have insight on the retail industry from a variety of sources. As a provider of people counting technologies for retailers, our relationship with the industry offers unique feedback and resources for the AMAC,” explains Lauren Gallo, SenSource Marketing Director and AMAC representative.

The AMAC was established in 1995 and consists of a select committee of NRF Associate Members who provide goods and services to the retail industry such as SenSource’s people counters and retail analytics software. The elite committee provides feedback to NRF regarding the needs of their customers, the retail industry and how NRF can better meet those needs. AMAC also serves to ensure the needs of NRF’s Associate Member base are met.
