3.0 How to do the assessment (Run)
3.0 Conducting a Run Genie session
The Run Genie experience is executed by a sales associate during their engagement with a customer
through the following steps:
1. Short interview. Each Run Genie session begins with an associate using an iPad installed with
Run Genie’s app to interview a customer with a few short questions designed to gain insight into
the type of a runner they are. The interview also helps the associate assess a customer’s footwear
needs while they build a rapport with them.
2. Pod setup. The associate then pairs 2 pods to the same iPad used during the interview. After the
Pods are paired and ready the associate hands them to the customer and instructs them how to
secure them to their laces.
3. Customer run. The customer is then directed by the associate to go on a short run. They will know
the run is complete when the LED lights on the Pods change from green to orange (less than 1
minute). The run can be conducted outside over ground, or inside on a treadmill.
4. Results analysis. After the run, the results are downloaded and analyzed by Run Genie’s app and
displayed on the iPad with easy to understand graphics and charts enabling the sales associate to
take the customer through their running classification.
5. Shoe recommendation. Now the sales associate can recommend shoes appropriate for the
customer’s running classification; either using information from the app (it will give a list of
recommended shoes) or their own knowledge of running styles. The pods are then removed from
the customer’s shoes and ready for the next user.
6. E-mail take away. Customers have the option of receiving an emailed copy of their Run Genie
experience, along with the running results and any shoe recommendations provided.
3.1 Correctly attaching the Pods
Run Genie’s Pods are designed to attach to the laces of a running shoe. There’s a Pod for both the left and
right foot, but it doesn’t matter which Pod goes on which foot. Ensure the following when attaching Run
Genie’s Pods to a shoe’s laces:
1. Pods need to be placed through the top one to two sets of laces (as many as possible for maximum
stability) then secured down when the customer ties the knot.
2. Make sure the Pods are centered on the laces for the best results.
3.2 Pairing the Pods
Pod pairing occurs after a customer has completed the interview process, and is ready to go for a run. In
order to properly pair the Pods, an associates must:
1. Place Pods on the iPad screen.
2. Ready the Pods by pressing the buttons on them; the LED lights should start blinking blue.
3. Select “pair pods” on the Run Genie app.
