EPoS UPDATE

摘要

Today we all accept automation. Even those selling coffee or pastries use an EPoS system. But some in the jewellery industry have been reluctant to join the IT revolution, holding out as long as possible. But with so much competition on the High Street and on-line, most retail jewellers now recognise they need to be on board with a modern system - but how to choose one? And what should they consider? First point - staff don't need a degree in IT to use an EPoS system. Modern touchscreen systems are intuitive and aesthetically pleasant, making it feel less daunting. All good EPoS providers will offer full training and it's worth considering your most confident staff to attend training in order to gain the maximum from this time. Clarity & Success, says MD Karen Russell, prides itself on its 'hold hands' approach after live date and its phones are answered immediately (in a friendly and patient manner!) Not only will a good EPoS system allow you to automate the sales process, this in turn allows a clean stock holding, clearing non-movers and giving a more frequent re-ordering of best sellers. Cash flow is key and the financial rewards are soon apparent.
