An EPOS System offers so much more...

If you work in the retail sector you can definitely benefit from an EPOS system. If you're not fully familiar with this type of system, you may be surprised at just how much they can do. EPOS systems have been around for a while now, and with technology marching on a great pace, it's no surprise that EPOS systems have been improved and enhanced a lot over recent years.

In a moment we'll look at the extra features an EPOS system can have that may be of huge benefit to your business that you may not have realised were on offer, but firstly we'll look at some overall advantages of this type of system.

Firstly, if you buy from Retail Computer Solutions Ltd your EPOS system software will have been developed with ease of use in mind. The system will have been fully tested and fine tuned to be very simplistic. The developers understand that you may be employing staff from all walks of life, you can't presume they have experience of using computer systems. You may also employ people on a short term basis, and you won't want to waste too much time in training them if they're not going to be with you very long. Your EPOS system will be simplicity itself to use, and you'll have your staff ready to work very quickly.

You'll have a simple and intuitive touch screen interface that will be fully customisable to perfectly suit your business. You won't get a generic 'one size fits all' EPOS solution, your EPOS system will be tailor made for your very own needs. We know that all businesses are different and so each business has different needs and priorities.

An EPOS system also helps greatly with eliminating errors, and if something does go wrong, you'll have everything recorded so you can track down where and when any transaction happened.

So, now on to those extra features we mentioned earlier. With an EPOS system stock control is easy, no more time consuming stock taking for you, as your EPOS system takes care of everything. It can even alert you when stock levels of a certain product are running low so you'll never disappoint a customer by running out of their favourite item. You'll have access to all sorts of reporting data, so you'll be able to see at a glance which of your products are big sellers and which items just sit on the shelves without a sale.

You'll also be able to run offers and promotions via your EPOS system. When a promotional item is  bought, your staff will immediately be informed of the offer and so they won't have to memorise all your promotions.

Of course there's many more great reasons to have an EPOS system installed, but we hope this will have given you a little taster of how your own business could benefit from all that EPOS has to offer.
