Lecterns Podiums Can Serve as Customer Service Stations
These lecterns podiums can serve as customer service stations in many different industries.
Hostess stands, like valet stations or welcoming podiums are a great self explanatory way to show your guests or customers the central location to obtain certain services and information. People standing behind podiums also tend to be more attentive to the guests desire for help or guidance. Lecterns podiums tend to draw customers and guests towards them upon initial entry into a facility or location, which can bring them into the experience of the expensive restaurant's or hotel's atmosphere and services immediately.
How can a podium be helpful in a customer service environment?
Where to drive-up and stop to get valet parking is easily located when there is a podium marking the spot. Hotel guests and restaurant patrons will noticeably know where to leave their name or check on their reservation when a lectern is near the front door. When entering a church, the nearby pulpit will be a place where members can be welcomed to the congregation and get the day's bulletin to follow along in the sermon. These lecterns podiums are a great marker of where a service can be acquired in businesses like hotels, parking lots, visitor centers, museums, art galleries and restaurants.
Some of these lecterns have sound systems built in, which is ideal for reservation announcements. It can be difficult for an already established business to now add a complete sound system into the building since all the finishing work has already been done. These lectern podiums with built in sound systems are a suitable solution. The sound systems are perfectly installed into the pulpits, including an amplifier and speaker system, for a complete announcement system that is able to be installed in the location by pushing the podium into the room and plugging it in. Some lecterns podiums sound systems are completely wireless with rechargeable battery options. The rechargeable battery replaces the 10 D-cell batteries that the wireless unit would otherwise require to be completely wireless. This environmentally friendly choice provides up to 20 hours of use with a single full charge, and it eliminates 10 batteries per use being tossed into a landfill. Many of our podiums lecterns with sound systems feature a standard 50-watt amplifier. This amp has 2 speaker jacks for a total of 4 speakers possible, which is great for true stereo sound and for amplifying over a wider area.
Some of these lecterns podiums, such as pulpits have a waterproof shell that makes them ideal for outdoor locations like valet & security stations or on-the-lawn graduations and classes. 
This outdoor podium selection is made of recycled products, and the podiums are 100% recyclable themselves! The outdoor pulpits are offered in several sizes and colors.

What are the featured qualities of the outdoor lecterns podiums?
One of the best qualities of the outdoor podiums, is that it can withstand a 60 foot drop onto concrete with little to no damage to the lectern itself. The manufacturer has included a 12 year inadequate warranty on the shell of this outdoor podium, based on normal use. This waterproof podium line, is completely made in America! These lecterns podiums are even OSHA approved.
Is there a benefit to a slanted reading surface on a lectern?
Some of these lecterns podiums have slanted reading surfaces that allow for a comfortable stance while reading or filling out seating charts. If using a podium for a long period of time during a single day, a flat working surface can cause the person using it to slouch or slump over the podium while writing. A slanted writing surface can force the person to stand up straight and not hunch over the lectern.
Many of these lecterns podiums have shelves which can be used to hold menus, silverware, glassware, business information or maps of the local area. Some shelves can be adjusted up or down or removed completely so that your desired merchandise within will fit. Lecterns podiums can be so lightweight that they can easily be carried by a single person. Other lecterns are equipped with 4 casters, which aid in the mobility of the pulpit.
