A while back I wrote about the Brammo Enertia Bike, this is a continuation of that thinking. Best Buy is moving forward with the idea of becoming a place where you grab electronic gear and EVs (electric vehicles). They are most defiantly exploring a new way to research, experience, and purchase mobile solutions, which is refreshing.
They have two concepts in the works that I rant about a lot (related to the auto purchase, however, it can be used as a frame for any purchase process really).
1. On site and robust product comparison tools.
“Some stores have a computer consultation desk for consumers to comparison-shop electric vehicles with pedal-powered or internal combustion products.”
2. Geek Squad as service reps…they have created a personal concierge for the mobile solutions they represent, its genius.
I cannot wait to buy my plug in Prius at Best Buy. I hope all car dealerships die.
