Definition:
A "Kiosk" by definition is a small stand-
alone unit that performs a specific
function, generally without management
intervention and are generally intended to
provide information to those that use it.
Kiosks are generally small, mobile, and are
designed to help the consumer find
information and they can be strategically
placed anywhere you wish to have a
presence but cannot or do not wish to
have a person staff the location.
Kiosk venues
Tradeshows and consumer events, malls, grocery stores,
doctor offices or anywhere else that your potential clients
may visit.
Kiosk functions
Kiosks can be made to do just about anything you want.
A simple kiosk will attractively display this information in a
way that consumers can easily find what they are looking
for.
Maintain your kiosk
While the kiosk has incredible advantages, they do require
that someone periodically check on them to make sure
that they are doing what they are supposed to do. Keep
your kiosk looking good, clean, take care of blemishes,
and make sure everything is working properly.
