Tresori Vineyards started using SalesVu POS system in 2012 and they couldn’t be happier!


 

Tresori Vineyard is a small wine boutique located in Newberg, OR. They are a family business that started in 1997 and they produce their own Pinot Noir wine bottles and commercialize them in the region. David Walker shared with us their great experience with SalesVu and why they decided to innovate and start using a POS system.
 

‘In 2012 we started our journey with SalesVu, it had a very good price point and we decided the system fit into our business plan. We found the system browsing online and we look for recommendations as well. We talked to some people about SalesVu and thanks to the great reviews we decided this solution was perfect for Tresori Vineyards’ – David Walker
 

David and his team are using the Ipad POS module and it has been great with keeping track of the historical data. They produce a couple of specific pinot noir bottles every season and what they love the most about the POS is the ability to run sales reports, per general sales, categories or products. Basic analytics are available with the this module and are great to run any type of business. In Tresori Vineyards they also sell merchandise as t-shirts or caps but 99% of their sales are wine and they were able to get that information using the POS module and the specific reports.
 

David also uses the inventory module to keep track of wine bottles. He is always working offsite and he loves that he can login from any city and monitor every sold product and his stock remotely. He uses this feature on a monthly basis to make sure all wine bottles are deducting accordingly and to keep track of what they receive from their warehouse.
 

  

 

SalesVu offers 24/7 support and David shared with us his experience so far, he describes tech support as very easy to get ahold of and extremely helpful with any issue.

Stumpy’s Hatchet House! The first indoor hatchet throwing venue in the USA is using SalesVu POS system to manage reservations in their business.


 

Stuart and Kelly Josberger are the proud business owners of Stumpy’s Hatchet House. Together they started this recreational facility where people can explore their fun side and throw hatchets as a sport, in groups, parties and events. The hottest spot in Eatontown, NJ., was founded in April 2016 and definitely grew into a big trend in the US, they’re franchising right now and their four upcoming locations will open their doors in 2018 in New Jersey and Texas.
 

Stuart and Kelly started this business looking for different POS systems, they had a hard time because this business is so unique that it didn’t fell into the Restaurant or Spa categories. Some of their requirements to choose the right software were the possibility to manage multi-locations, an all-in-one system that included inventory tracking, employee management, online reservations, gift cards and ease of use for the staff, managers and franchises. SalesVu was the right fit for them at an affordable price.
 

  

‘SalesVu has been great with us with customizing the reservation feature. We have been able to maximize the number of people that comes to our store. We started with online reservations and we implemented a feature where we take a deposit at the time of scheduling, thanks to this feature our ‘no shows’ have decreased from 25% to 5%’ – Kelly Josberger


 

The reservation module offers to have the schedule or calendar embedded into your website, there’s no need to redirect your customers to another webpage. In addition, it includes three types of payment options: payment upfront, payment at the business and partial deposits, you are able to choose the right one for your business. When customers reserve a pit on Stumpy’s Hatchet House website, they get a confirmation email and text, and prior to the appointment they also get text reminders.
 

Another feature that has been very helpful for Stuart and Kelly is the online gift card module. They implemented this tool on December 2016 and it was a game changer for them because they used to sell physical gift cards and mail them to their customers, which was very time consuming. Now people can buy electronic gift cards for their own or send them as a gift, they receive an email with a unique code that they will use to redeem it in the store towards a service or a product.

‘Last December we saw a huge increase on electronic gift cards for the Holiday season and we hope this year will be the same’ – Stuart Josberger


 

The last two modules that Stumpy’s uses to manage employees and keep track of their merchandise are Employee and Inventory management. The first module is used for clocking in/out, creating schedules for shifts, send schedules by email/text, pull labor reports and upload training documents for them to review. With the inventory module, they monitor in real time the deduction of the merchandise such as t-shirts and hoodies, they can create PO’s for ordering more products and receive inventory that will update automatically.
 

To continue to manage their business and to be able to franchise and add more locations, Stuart and Kelly need the help of a reliable system that keeps growing with them. That’s why SalesVu is the best software for any type of business. If you are in the area of New Jersey, take a break to have some fun and visit Stumpy’s Hatchet House! Reserve your pits here

Learn more about how The Tea Trolley has been using SalesVu POS system: Gift Card solution for the Holiday season!

The Tea Trolley offers a variety of teas that you can enjoy with their delicious homemade desserts, scones and sandwiches; they also own a gift shop where you can get some beautiful merchandise. This tearoom is characterized by their gorgeous location which is a restored Victorian house in Delta, Pennsylvania. Business owner, Rachael Cox, sat with us and told us her story with the software and how some SalesVu modules have helped her business.
 

QuickBooks was the first point of sale system that she tried, the reason for a change was to get rid of the paperwork and find a POS software that was able to add gratuity in an easy way. Rachael started her journey with SalesVu 3 years ago and discovered that that system had great gift cards, inventory and tip/gratuity capabilities.
 

‘The biggest thing that SalesVu has helped us with are Gift Cards, we weren’t able to do that before and we were using paper certificates. Our guests like to buy the physical cards and they can also get them online’ – The Tea Trolley

 

The greatest advantage that the staff noticed was that you can scan a gift card to sell it and redeem it. Balances deduct automatically and are saved on the back end for reporting and controlling purposes. With the physical gift cards, you can add the receiver on the POS right away, or if you prefer the online version, you can send it by email, on that email there will be a unique code that customers can later redeem in the business. Rachael decided to implement this feature about a year ago for the Holiday season and she has definitely seen a moderate increase in sales ever since.
 

Another module that has been very helpful for the retail side of the business, is the inventory module. They mainly use it to see the products that they have on stock and to check the cost of inventory and profitability of their merchandise. In addition, they use this module to create purchase orders and send them to their vendors. This particular feature has eliminated the use of paper and spreadsheets and it is integrated with software. After creating the PO, she is able to receive it right from the web portal, inventory updates automatically and a report for open and closed orders is available.
 

     

 

SalesVu has proved to be an all-in-one management solution for this fantastic tearoom! If you want to have the experience of an afternoon tea, go ahead and check their place, you’ll definitely have a wonderful evening with their lovely staff. Follow them on social media below!
