THE POWER OF MUSIC

Why Music Matters in Shopping Centers

In studies, shoppers say they go to shopping malls for convenience, but they also expect a good experience. They want to shop in a climate-controlled spot that supports social interaction and conversation. Music makes this possible. 

Your mall soundtrack can make a confined spot feel cozy and warm (not stifling and stuffy). Songs can entice your customers to linger with their friends, stopping at every store they visit. The result? An improved conversion rate—and you have music to thank for it.

“Pandora CloudCover can be the soundtrack to spontaneous splurges for mall shoppers. With so many songs to choose from, mall operators can find the songs they want quickly and start sharing them with customers.”
