Service Eliminates Lines With Cell Phones; Debuts in Hospitality, Health Care, Government and Transportation Markets
LOS ANGELES, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Nov 17, 2008 -- Ab Inventio LLC launches QLess (www.QLess.com), a queue-management solution using mobile phones to eliminate the need to wait in line. Available now in select government agencies and businesses, QLess unfetters people from lines by delivering mobile status updates and wait forecasts.
"Americans spend more than two years per lifetime just waiting in line," said Alex Bäcker, CEO of Ab Inventio. "QLess gives people that time back as well as affords businesses the opportunity to reduce no-shows, increase customer satisfaction and return rates, offer increased personalized interaction, and better understand them through comprehensive analytics."
QLess boasts an innovative virtual queue system that sends texts or voice calls to waiting customers' phones, allowing patrons to roam freely and inspiring customer loyalty. QLess also boosts worker productivity by removing line-management responsibilities from employees.

QLess also provides a marketing tool that allows businesses to send value-added promotions directly to customers. Via the QLess system, opt-in customers can be alerted of events, coupons, courtesy greetings and more.
