Every person with a disability may have different needs, and they know best what works for them – the IBCCES Accessibility App is a location-based platform that makes finding accessible businesses and public locations easy for people of all abilities, making it easier for you to empower visitors before they enter your location.
See what end users and businesses have to say about the Accessibility App
The Accessibility App is a platform to connect with an underserved market and empower all customers to have a positive experience.
Accessibility Starts with Communication
The Accessibility App was designed to help businesses be transparent and proactively communicate what customers can expect when visiting their location. For customers with disabilities, this can be a deciding factor in whether to visit a location.
Accessibility by the Numbers
Taking a closer look at these numbers goes beyond just seeing figures; it shows a strong story of a market that’s not getting enough attention, full of possibilities and chances. If we dig even deeper, these numbers are like a call for businesses to be more inclusive. It’s not just about meeting accessibility standards but also about making real connections with a diverse group of people who are ready and excited to be customers.
1 in 4 adults is diagnosed with a disability
Consider this – in our country, 1 in 4 adults faces challenges because of a disability. Now, ask yourself: How do customers find you? Are you clearly communicating what customers can expect when they arrive at your location? Reflect on whether unintentional barriers might be turning away or turning off 25% of people from your business.
