When you consider that there are about 40,000 new blogs being launched daily, and that is not even counting new websites or updates going in in both websites and blogs, it becomes clear that information is coming at us in gigantic levels. And it grows daily. The only way to handle this colossal information is to focus and specialize on a certain area.

| | Increase Your Profits with a Point of Sale (POS) SystemWritten by Brian Cook
Whether you operate a chain of restaurants, a mom-and-pop convenience store, or a medium- sized retail shop, you are in business to make money. And, one of most critical aspects to your profit and loss is your ability to track information… you need to know which products are making you money, what items need to be re-ordered, who your customers are, and so on. This is where today’s point of sale (POS) systems play such a valuable role.In not too distant past, retailers used mechanical cash registers to record sales onto a paper tape which then had to be manually transcribed into company’s accounting ledger. Later, electronic versions of cash registers were introduced which allowed business owners to track more of data pertaining to each transaction (for example, management was able to track all sales and refunds by each cashier). Today, cash registers have evolved into modern computer-based point of sale systems, which let you track more information than previously imaginable. Some of ways that a point of sale system can help you increase your profits include analyzing your product margin, tracking sales, increasing accuracy of your pricing, and maintaining customer contact. As a business owner, you know how important it is to keep a close watch on margin of each product since you want to focus on selling things that make you greatest profit. A point of sale system can help you quickly identify your greatest money-makers and make decisions about how much of each item you want to stock. (If you have a limited storage area, it doesn’t make sense to fill it up with low-profit items). A point of sale system also allows you to know, practically at push of a button, how much cash you have in till (and how much of it is profit!), type and amount of each product sold that day, and how many items are still on shelf. You can even set it up to automatically notify you when reaching re-order point on any item.
