B2B Vault: The Biz To Biz Podcast

Today's podcast talks about what is happening in today's economy, how it will affect businesses, and what they can do with technology to keep up. Inflation and rising prices will trickle down to everyone sooner or later. It's time to start thinking about making a pivot in your business - being proactive is better than being reactive. One of my favorite business books is who moved my cheese, and the ideas and concepts in that book have shaped many business decisions. We go into what is going on in the economy and what different business types can do - now automation, kiosks, new services, marketing, and more. Justin and I discuss various ways you can use technology to help run your business.

In today's podcast, we will talk about Point of Sale systems, what types are there, and how you make a good business decision. There are systems for the retail, restaurant/bar, specialty, and Hotel/Hospitality industries. What do you need to consider when buying a Point of Sale System. Budget - Integrations - Features - Functionality - Report Capabilities. are just the starters. We work with about a dozen Point of sale providers, and we guide merchants thru the process. Just because you see one that's popular does not mean it's what you need, so knowing what you need it to do is the most crucial thing in selection. Many business owners have champagne taste and beer budget - I always say you get what you pay for. You can find systems that are simple to complex - systems that do it yourself - you have to do it all yourself up to Franchise and Enterprise Systems - IPad to Android - Cloud-based or Server Based. It's a lot to take in - and you need to know if your technical skills are ready to do a do it your self job - or do you need professional installation and training - which comes at a price. We will be going thru various systems and talking a bit about each one. We have sold all of these, and with 20 plus years of experience, we can guide you. So please listen as we talk about the Point of Sale Systems we offer! Carpe Deim
