Transforming Wait Time into Prime Time
BACKGROUND
Waiting in a bank branch is often seen as lost time. PKO Bank Polski's queue screens were used ad-hoc, without a clear strategy or consistent look. The goal was to turn these screens into a consistent channel that genuinely supports the customer journey.
SITUATION
We helped PKO BP turn queue screens into a well-organized communication tool:
- - Strategic Framework: We defined what to show and in what proportion – ensuring relevance for everyone, from seniors to tech-savvy IKO app users.
- - Purpose-Built Design: We introduced a repeatable format for every message: short animations that are easy to read from a distance and easy to follow, with clear pacing.
- - Content Production: We produced 15 video animations covering cybersecurity, the IKO app, and new services.
- - Field Testing: We tested the format in real branches and
fine-tuned the content based on real customer behavior.
RESULTS
The bank got a clearer, more engaging way to communicate with customers:
- 1. Better experience: Waiting time feels shorter and more useful.
- 2. Higher awareness: Customers discover new services while they wait.
- 3. Staff support: The screens act as a "silent advisor,"
preparing customers for their conversation at the desk.
