Based in Littleton, Colorado, Living the Dream Brewing Co. produces craft beer on site to serve on their taprooms and sell it on the market . They also offer a large variety of merchandise, including accessories, women’s, men’s and unisex clothing available in different colors and sizes. Jason Bell was very excited to share with us his experience throughout SalesVu and how it has helped manage the brewery.
 

Business opened their doors back in 2013, they started using SalesVu right away because at that time it was the best software that suit their needs, the features fit perfectly for the business and the best part is that the price was very affordable. It was very important for Jason to choose a software that was iPad and cloud based, but most important the flexibility that the system provides, access to all of their information from any device at anytime it’s a really great feature to have.
 


 

‘SalesVu has definitely helped us with everything. It allowed us to have a point of sale system when we opened and now that we’ve been expanding we can add more iPads to make the workflow run smoother’.
– Jason Bell

 

The three modules that Living the Dream Brewing Co uses on a daily basis are POS, inventory and gift cards. They were able to switch from paper gift certificates to physical gift cards, the greatest advantage of this is the fact that they can keep track of all the numbers, balances and recharge history using the system. To redeem or sell gift cards they can just simply scan them with the iPad’s camera or enter the number manually. This change was very convenient for them and made their management life easier in every aspect.
 

POS and Inventory are 2 modules that get along really well, Jason told us that sometimes they have events where they sell their merchandise and retail items, all the products and different matrixes that are uploaded into the system can also be tracked under the inventory feature.

The concept of this coffee shop is young and modern, they offer homemade coffee and a variety of food like sandwiches and pastries. Currently they have 5 locations with SalesVu and they will open their sixth location within the next few days. Gabriel sat with us and told us why SalesVu was the best option for his business since day number one.
The software was recommended by one of his good friends and they were delighted with the ease and accessibility of having a cloud based system to manage their café. Although there were other solutions offering similar services, SalesVu was the best option for them, just because they didn’t need a lot of hardware and they can manage every aspect of their business from home, office or even when they were traveling.

Con el concepto de una cafetería moderna, ofrecen un café tostado por ellos mismos y cuentan con un menú de alimentos para acompañar las bebidas. Actualmente cuentan con 5 sucursales y están próximos a abrir la sexta en un par de días. Gabriel se sentó con nosotros y nos contó porque SalesVu es la mejor opción para su negocio desde el día de su apertura.

 

SalesVu fue una recomendación de uno de sus amigos, y quedaron encantados con la facilidad y accesibilidad de manejar su propio negocio desde la nube y sobre todo con un iPad. A pesar de que existen otros softwares de punto de venta que ofrecen servicios similares, SalesVu fue la mejor opción por el simple hecho de que se requiere el mínimo de hardware y el módulo POS (Point of Sale) es grandioso para manejar tu negocio desde casa, oficina, o incluso mientras te encuentras de viaje.

 

“Comenzamos a utilizar SalesVu en el negocio y esto era totalmente nuevo en México. Se nos hizo muy fácil y práctico, todo lo podíamos ver en internet directamente, como checar nuestras ventas. Hasta el día de hoy hemos ido creciendo junto con SalesVu en todas nuestras sucursales”. – Gabriel

 

El primer mes de apertura contaban con una calculadora y papel para poder monitorear sus ventas, gracias a SalesVu la organización y orden del negocio dio un giro de 360 grados. Con el módulo POS, Gabriel es capaz de checar sus ventas desde cualquier dispositivo y puede generar estos reportes por categorías o productos en específico, los reportes de venta también están disponibles por sucursal, así que esta información pueden ser tan general o específica, depende de lo que se esté buscando en ese momento. Agregar, editar y eliminar productos del sistema es muy fácil, solo se necesita una computadora y en minutos puedes cambiar tu menú y comenzar a ofrecer nueva mercancía.
El mayor beneficio que Café Azúcar Morena ve con SalesVu es la cantidad de dinero que se han ahorrado en software y sobre todo en hardware. No hay necesidad de comprar un sistema con una computadora enorme que se vuelve obsoleta rápidamente, todo se maneja desde un iPad lo cual es muy funcional y práctico, los tickets de venta pueden ser enviados por email o mensaje de texto y esto da un diseño mucho más limpio y moderno para cualquier negocio.

 

Lo más valioso que Gabriel ha obtenido hasta ahora con la experiencia de utilizar SalesVu para su negocio es el servicio al cliente. Cuando él o su equipo han tenido dudas, utilizan el servicio de soporte técnico vía chat y en menos de 5 minutos responden y aclaran sus dudas. Los representantes son muy atentos y rápidos. Soporte técnico está disponible en inglés y español los 365 días del año.
Los módulos de administración de Staff y administración de Inventario también están disponibles con el software. Gabriel está realmente interesado en esta funcionalidad del sistema ya que todo está integrado con SalesVu y no hay necesidad de buscar otro sistema para acomodarlo.
Café Azúcar Morena está disfrutando al máximo la experiencia de tener un sistema de punto de venta en la nube. SalesVu es capaz de manejar cualquier tipo de negocio, desde cafeterías, restaurantes, tiendas de ropa, salones de belleza hasta servicios profesionales.
