The concept of retail began hundreds of years ago in one form or another. In the last 20 plus years however with the great leaps technology takes on a daily basis, it is only natural that point of sale solutions are doing much more than being a simple cash register. When the concept of point of sale solution started it was a glorified cash register, yet today, for a business to be able to exist and thrive it requires much more than that – a business needs a store management solution.

All across the board Point of sale companies are selling the same thing – a point of sale software that keeps track of sales; however Visual Retail Plus keeps being one step ahead of the rest by understanding the needs of the retailers. Visual Retail Plus has an open relationship with its customers allowing them to easily speak with its developers and expressing their needs in the software. Retailers who use Visual Retail Plus don’t need to wait months or years for a new POS software release – they have access to constant changes and updates and with a click of a button – they too have an updated version.

A commonly heard issue is the constant battle between the large retailers against the small mom and pop shops and or the smaller chains who are doing everything possible to stay up and running. It is the smaller chains that have the most need for such a point of sale solution. Many retailers ask, “why do I need something so robust?” the answer is simple – you don’t want to over buy or vice versa and you want those customers to return, you want those customers to make your store their go-to shop when buying something for themselves or as a gift.

Visual Retail Plus has one module for their point of sale solution and that module has everything needed to run a business successfully and assist it in reaching its full potential. VRP has extremely advanced CRM (Customer Relations Module) which not only allows the sales staff to put customer information but it also allows to send automatic emails for birthdays, add customer preferences making the next sale even easier, VIP customers, gift cards, anonymous sales.

When a customer walks into a store today they want to feel welcome, they want to feel welcome and not like “just another customer”. Of course the attitude of the employees is a main key however having such strong point of sale solution allows sales people to easily interact with customers. Seeing on the screen what the customer purchased last time they were there can make an amazing impression if the sales person asks the customer if they are enjoying the specific product they purchased last time.
Yes, there are many Point of sale companies out there, but Visual Retail Plus really outshines with its knowledgeable tech support and endless reports for retailers.
