SalesVu’s iPad POS System is the Perfect Match for Plumbob Design

Posted by salesvu

Tim Andonian, owner of Plumbob Design, a design build shop in the heart of Silicon Valley, designs unique gifts such as picture frames, engraving and signage and mini blocks, which began as a kickstarter project.

“The mini blocks are made for the desktop for ages three and up,” said Andonian. “Each set is completely unique and contains abstract shapes and different types of wood. They inspire creative play in children while giving them a direct experience of complex weighting and balancing. In the office, they can be used as a stress relief executive toy, or used with work group meetings to aid in creative thinking and collaboration.”

Andonian had used Etsy.com prior to adopting SalesVu and decided to research POS systems, such as Square and Intuit. He needed a POS system and credit card reader that would work with his iPad mini.

“I spent some time just searching the web and weighing feature sets of different software and services,” said Andonian. “The ease of setting up the inventory and product list and credit card reader integration seemed like the only choice. Since I am using Etsy as my online shop, I was primarily looking for a solution for being at markets and shows.”

Andonian needs SalesVu’s retail POS in order to make sales outside his garage where he designs his unique products.

“I aim to participate in Farmers Markets and fairs where I want to have a point of sale,” Andonian said.

When managing Plumbob Design through SalesVu’s iPad POS, Andonian enjoys the ease and straightforwardness of tracking inventory on his iPad. Best of all, he can manage his business from anywhere outside his garage.

“I have a POS anywhere I want,” said Andonian.

SalesVu’s iPad POS Systemat Kalamatas Greek Grill

Posted by salesvu

Kalamatas Greek Grill (KGG) serves flavorful greek cuisine with a modern flare in West Chester, Ohio. KGG needed an iPad POS because they participate in festivals during the summer.

“It is extremely convenient for all credit card processing in-house and on the road to show up in one report,” said KGG Owner John Hanna.

Prior to adopting SalesVu’s POS system, Hanna had used First Data and Square at KGG and looked into Intuit GoPayment and Clover.

“I travel every month and I like the fact that I can control my menu –add or delete items — from anywhere as well as look up sales from my phone,” said Hanna. “Also, the employee clock-in and out feature is something that I could not find in other applications.”

We’ve Got a Sweet Tooth for Yours Truly Cupcake!

Posted by salesvu

The Company

Yours Truly Cupcake (YTC) is a dessert catering company in Denver, Co. YTC creates unique sensory experiences for customers through desserts and services. Yours Truly specializes in liquor-infused cupcakes and desserts that pair with cocktails and wine; these treats are targeted at adventurous adults with a sophisticated palette.

For events and corporate gifts, YTC meets with clients in their tasting room to gain an understanding of the customers’ needs and how Yours Truly can be the “sweet solution” for them. For larger events, they bake-to-order every dessert imaginable .

The Needs

YTC wanted the ability to use iPads and iPhones to charge customers without investing in a large POS system as they don’t have the space.

Analytics during business growth

“Before SalesVu, we used Square,” said YTC Owner Tiffany Goodyear. “But as the business grew, we wanted to keep analytics. Our processing company recommended SalesVu and we have been satisfied with the interface.”

Online ordering AND on-site purchases

“We recently opened a retail walk-up window adjacent to our tasting room so we can offer our customers the option to pick up treats without needing to place an advanced order,” said Goodyear.

The Results

Retail operation is more organized through SalesVu’s features

“We use SalesVu for our retail operation which allows us to track inventory and see trends in popular products and flavors,” said Goodyear. “For the catering side and call-in orders, we love to send the invoice directly through SalesVu and have our clients click through to pay; this saves time and ensures we are paid in full before we bake.”

Online ordering

“I like how easy it is to integrate online ordering through our website,” said Goodyear. “We get lots of orders from all over the country so it allows people to shop during hours when we are closed.”

Simplified payment process

“Because we are a small business, we want to spend our energy on our clients and not worrying about if and how we are going to get paid,” said Goodyear. “[SalesVu] is so easy to use that we can train people quickly and it is very intuitive!”

YTC saved hundreds from not investing in a traditional POS.

SalesVu iPad POS System Role on the Street of Dreams

Posted by salesvu

The Company

Street of Dreams (SD) is the original Luxury Home Show in the U.S. and has been running continuously since 1977. It is held in late summer, usually in August, and hosts 60-80,000 attendees.

The Needs

SD’s show is held on recently developed land far from the offices. They needed a POS System to track customer ticketing and concession sales.

The SalesVu Decision

SD was using a Quicken application residing on a PC.

“We tried to vet every application we could find,” said VP of Finance Mike Maxwell. “We looked at everything in the iTunes app store as well as scouring the web. The decision to use SalesVu was unanimous among those in the process.”

SalesVu stood out to Street of Dreams because of its ease of use.

“We had been using another application but were able to eliminate at least 1 step in the sales process that allowed us to process customers more quickly to reduce lines and wait times,” said Maxwell.

The Results

“The overall simplicity allowed us to drop steps in processing the customer,” said Maxwell. “I would also say the learning curve for the staff was super easy and they picked it up with little difficulty, so training time and errors were reduced.”

SalesVu iPad POS System Over Square at Briarcliff Bistro & Bacon Bar

Posted by salesvu

Briarcliff Bistro & Bacon Bar (BB) has just adopted SalesVu’s iPad POS! BB, a Spicewood, Tx diner and bar, serves burgers, sandwiches, salads and appetizers. Their bacon theme extends to the menu items, including drinks such as the Bacon Bloody Mary.

When BB was starting up they looked into Square and SalesVu. They compared the features of the two solutions and one major difference was that Square does not offer the ability to keep open tabs, a mandatory feature for BB. Additionally, they were given a walk through demonstration in a real time environment to see firsthand how SalesVu’s iPad POS could benefit their business.

“We needed an mPOS for indoor and outdoor dining, mainly,” said BB Owner Jennifer Halpine. “Also, we thought it looked really cool to have the waitstaff creating order tickets on iPod Touch and iPad devices. Plus, the ability for the customer to sign the mobile device and have the receipt emailed to them was appealing to us.”

We’re so happy to have Briarcliff Bistro & Bacon Bar using our iPad POS! If you’re interested in going to BB, you can check in on Foursquare, tweet them @BriarcliffBistro or view some of their delicious menu items on Pinterest: BriarcliffBacon.

Welcome to SalesVu iPad POS System, Falcon Ridge Farm

Posted by salesvu

Falcon Ridge Farm (FRF) is a family owned and operated farm in Tennesse that specializes in high quality fruits and vegetables as well as family entertainment. FRF produces over 30 different fruits and vegetables including: blueberries, blackberries, strawberries and sweet corn. They recently began a Community Supported Agriculture program where families can join and receive a box of fresh fruits and vegetables every week. FRF also has an annual Fall Festival that boasts a pumpkin patch, corn maze, and hayrides. Throughout the year, they have activities such as Easter egg hunts and choose-and-cut Christmas trees.

Falcon Ridge heard about SalesVu from a friend in the same line of work who used and was pleased with SalesVu’s iPad POS. Prior to SalesVu, FRF used “cheap” cash registers purchased from Sam’s Club. Owner Bart Gilmer also considered Shopkeep’s POS system but SalesVu was cheaper and came highly recommended.

Gilmer needed an mPOS in order to maintain better records, flexibility and ease of use.

“We use a lot of seasonal employees, therefore our employee turnover rate is very high,” said Gilmer. “I really needed a system that anybody could learn to operate in a matter of minutes.”

“My favorite thing about SalesVu is that it is easy to operate,” said Gilmer. “Anyone that can use an iPhone or iPad can learn to use it in a very, very short time. I also like the ability to generate accurate reports and easily edit and update the system. This is important because with the old registers there were very few people that could operate it correctly, which made staffing very difficult. Also, the reports enable me to run a more efficient business.”
