Most beer and wine distributors say they have no idea how custom POS impacts their business. Automating the POS process to maximize the sales-building potential of their high-dollar investment in POS typically boils down to one claim: “I don’t have time to make it happen.”
The study of the effects of inefficient POS sign management to the bottom line and the ramifications of adopting a hosted application solution as a cost effective alternative to traditional software is the subject of POS Best Practices: the effects of inefficient POS sign management to the bottom line.
The study is being made available to wholesale distribution owners and top level managers in a narrated CD format. The information provides a broad overview about how the traditional benefits of automation, management information and decision support play out in a connected world where ‘software as a solution’ is rapidly replacing more expensive traditional IT.
POS best practices are illustrated for all stakeholders — from presales to sign shop to management and finance. The study addresses the value of POS tracking and how a distributorship’s POS statistics and trends can be utilized for better cash managment and decision support.
A case study provides insight to why A-B distributor Chas. Seligman adopted a web-based solution and how it has eliminated their ‘black hole’ of POS, first for presales and the sign shop by encouraging easy-to-make high quality template-based POS to eliminate inefficiencies, mistakes, lost requests and reworks, then in the area of POS cash management.
