It’s a new year and the perfect time to reevaluate your store’s point of sale (POS). Is your POS so out of date and unreliable that it frustrates your customers and employees alike? Or are you still using a credit card terminal and a cash register? With the holidays behind us, now is the moment to take stock of your operation and decide how you’re going to achieve your business goals in the coming year.
Point of sale is one of the most rapidly evolving technologies on the market. With that evolution comes new and essential POS features designed to make running your retail store faster and easier. The good news is these important tools are within your reach. And the start of a new year is the ideal time to take advantage of all the benefits an advanced point of sale can offer your business. A POS system like Exatouch® has built-in reporting, offline processing, employee and inventory management, and low payment processing costs—not to mention free gift card processing, inventory builds, and ongoing training for you and your staff. Plus, all these services are backed by an in-house, U.S.-based technical support team that’s available 24/7! Does your current setup help you streamline operations, provide support whenever you need it, and offer insights that enable you to make informed decisions to drive sales?

Software that’s full of bugs and freezes every other day irritates customers, impedes commerce, and results in lost sales. After all, if it takes your patrons longer to check out than it did to shop for their items, they’re going elsewhere. A cutting-edge POS like Exatouch is fast, secure, and easy to use. Countless features including barcode scanners that speed inventory and checkout, receipt and label printing, purchase order management, a detailed customer database, built-in loyalty programs, and much more ensure managing your store is less complicated and more profitable.
