Jose started his journey with SalesVu in 2016, he was looking for a software that was easy to use, great interface and the fact that pricing is very flexible and you can build your own bundle according to your type of business was the main factor for him, because he knows exactly what he’s paying for. This POS System was a recommendation from his sales consultant and ever since they have been really pleased with the software.
 

‘There are two main things as why SalesVu is the perfect fit for us and how it has helped us grow. The first one is that I can keep track of the money that’s coming into the business with just touching a couple of buttons, the reports are very easy to get and you can obtain very detailed information. Second thing is that it also keeps track of the employees’ hours, they clock in/out from the iPad with their pin number and I can get the report on hours and use it for payroll, we find it very convenient that everything is integrated’ – Jose Murillo.
 

The employee scheduling feature is another favorite from Camp Bow Wow’s staff members. Jose is able to create shifts easily on the web portal, he can select individuals or groups of employees and have a recurrence pattern depending on which days they work. All of his employees receive the scheduler notifications by email and text, meaning they always have their availability on their phones. Employees are also able to notify back if they won’t be able to take the shift. Is a great tool to use and they are definitely taking advantage of it.
 


 

Jose was looking for a reliable Free POS system that can manage human resources and point of sale and he found it with SalesVu.

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

paintbarlogo

Located in Delafield and Madison, WI., PaintBar is a fun and great establishment to explore your artistic side. You can paint and freestyle on canvas, take art classes and enjoy a variety of delicious flat-bread pizzas, beers and drinks!

John Salituro started his business using PayPal, an easy solution to accept payments. He decided to take the next step and switch to an all in one business management solution and went with SalesVu simply because it offers everything that they need to administrate their business. There’s no need to have an external company for reservations, gift cards or any modules. SalesVu is a one-stop shop!

<br>

The reservation feature with SalesVu is very easy to use. From the customer’s perspective, all they have to do is go to their website and book a table for them to work, they select the best date, party size and choose the time available. At the end of their booking experience, they will get a confirmation via email and text. With SalesVu, you can actually receive or check in the customer, and the table will remain as an ‘open tab’ for them to start ordering food and drinks and mainly have a good time while painting and expressing themselves. Besides the email and text confirmations, the software is also capable of sending up to two reminders and the messages are totally customizable!

“With the Employee management module is easy to create schedules and email them. With the calendar sync my team always have their shifts on their phones, it’s amazing! They really like the time off and shift trade request, is really simple to use and the process is smooth” – John Salituro.

The employee module has been really helpful for John. Since he has two locations, he can give permissions or access to a store level. Scheduling and Payroll works the same way, per location, and the process of pulling these reports is extremely easy and non-time consuming.

Country Porch Winery wishes they have known about SalesVu iPad POS System and Employee Schedulling years ago.

7Qc9FgU7
Country Porch Winery started a winery business in a large warehouse north of Cortland,Ohio by teaching wine making, selling homemade wine supplies, and starting their own winery. Wine, cookouts, and great music from local bands, Cortland Wine Cellar enjoyed a busy and fun five plus years of business. They met and made new friends and customers all while planing the perfect location for their winery. Country Porch Winery has been a work in progress for many years after joining the wine industry in 2006 and SalesVu iPad POS System is proud to be the official credit card processing system that helps them accomplish their goals and drive sales.
Debbie Belts and Sheila Fisher are the co-owners of D&she Inc. Who set out to find a location for their own winery to open in 2012.
“As small business entrepreneurs for 17 years running a fulfilling shipping company a MYO wine store along with a farm produce and antique market,  we knew we would need a good POS system to take care of their front counter, relay information to the kitchen and staff, take care of their customer needs and maintain their inventory, along with capturing all of that information in an easy to use format.”
The fit came naturally when in 2012,Sheila, the office “techie”, did some research and found SalesVu iPad POS System.
“The current POS systems available on the market are just not complete enough. We had previously used a standalone accounting POS system that was cumbersome and time consuming, but after reviewing and demoing several POS systems that were specifically designed for the wine industry Sheila sought out the options of a more updated system using iPads and the cloud as interactive solutions.  It was at this time she found SalesVu along with several other cloud-based POS systems.”
Country Porch Winery told us that upon demoing and reading the SalesVu iPad POS System customer reviews and industry based comments, they tried to teach the other owners and staff  that SalesVu was exactly the system she was looking for that it exceeded their needs and expectations
“Currently, we are using SalesVu iPad POS System on two iPads with a kitchen and receipt printing along with customer information and inventory modules.  It is really easy to ring customers out assisting them with their orders, reviewing their items and printing everything in the kitchen. At the end of the day, employee management and scheduling on the online clock goes on, and of course, the most important tool, the statistical and financial reporting  has made SalesVu invaluable to our small business.  We are looking to grow with SalesVu and the industry. All I can say is I wish I found SalesVu years ago for the other businesses I owned and managed!”
And we look forward to see you thriving too!

Technology arrives at the Falcon Ridge Farm in the form SalesVu iPad POS

LogoFRF

 

Falcon Ridge is a family owned and operated farm located in the beautiful rolling hills of west Tennessee. Expanded throughout 250 acres, they specialize in growing fresh food and fun. There are over 40 different fruits and vegetables grown at Falcon Ridge.  Some of the favorites include strawberries, tomatoes, blueberries, blackberries, kale and sweet corn.  Falcon Ridge grows, harvests and retails everything that is grown on the farm.  They sell some of their fresh produce to farmer’s markets and have open their gates to the public to provide ole fashion family fun. The farm also hosts school field trips, family reunions and picnics.

SalesVu team asked them why they felt the need of obtaining a POS solution. They told us that their main reason was because they conduct business in several locations and needed an easier and more effective system to keep track of their sales.

 

“We chose SalesVu because it was recommended by a friend. We were not using any POS system before SalesVu. You are the first ones and we are happy to have reached that decision.  We used to register everything we sold in notepads and old cash registers. In regards of other POS systems that we considered, I honestly do not recall the others, but I do remember most of them had a monthly fee which I didn’t want and did not like”

 

We wanted to know what were the favorite things they liked about SalesVu and also any other experiences they wanted to share with us about their trajectory using our services.

 

“One of the things I like the most about SalesVu is how easy is to operate it, and the ability to keep records effortlessly. The old cash registers we used were confusing to operate and we had a hard time training new employees to use them correctly. With SalesVu, anyone that can adequately operate a smartphone can learn SalesVu’s system within minutes.  This is important because we are a seasonal retail operation and have a high turnover of employees.  Record keeping is something we are continually trying to improve.  SalesVu had enabled our ability to leap forward from pen and paper ledgers to digital records, and to reports that are available 24/7 from your smartphone or computer. This has helped us run a more efficient business.”

 

SalesVu has helped Falcon Ridge by transforming the employee training into an easier experience.

 

“SalesVu iPad POS system is intuitive and easy to catch., We can keep better and more accessible records. The fact that SalesVu is portable lets us conduct business anywhere at anytime. I think we have probably saved a couple hundred dollars up front and $50 a month by using SalesVu instead of another monthly fee based POS.”

They told us that from all the other mobile POS platforms out there they chose SalesVu after intense research and realized it was the most viable one for each of their particular business needs.

“We did research on several POS systems and we seemed to like SalesVu the most. It certainly was the most intuitive software, and the easiest to understand.

Inventory Management at your fingertips, everywhere you go with SalesVu iPad POS System!

Red Onion Spice & Tea Company are merchants of high quality spices, loose leaf tea and gourmet salts. Catering to the chef that lives within all of us, they specialize in offering custom spice blends. They offer original tea blends using only the best quality loose teas. Their products are primarily organic and maintain rigorous quality control to bring out the best flavors in all our dishes. Red Onion & Spice Tea Company have high  standards, reason why they have chosen to use SalesVu retail POS !

“Our business started online in 2010 with our first store opening in Juneau, Alaska in 2012, We’re a small business run by three staff and me, the business owner. We pack each internet order item fresh as it’s ordered, and in-store we offer both bulk and items that we pre-pack.  I can’t tell you how nice it is to have customers who walk into the store happy, and leave happy! Our town has a small selection of restaurants to choose from, so there are lots of experienced ‘closet chefs’ in town. We ship all across the country and Canada as well and are proud of our reputation that we have built.”

We asked Kathy Jones why they needed to obtain a mobile POS system and why from all the options, they decided for SalesVu retail POS. They told us that even being the business owner of a small retail shop, the challenges and problems they faced were very significant and large.

” I work another full time job and can’t be at the shop during the day. My other job also requires that I travel – and I take vacations away as well.  This means I need to be able to manage my business wherever I go, and at home in the evenings. Reason why I needed to be able to handle Red Onion & Spice & Tea Company affairs from everywhere I went. SalesVu retail POS did it all and charged a simple and reasonable rate for credit card transactions”

Kathy told us that businesses are very complex enough and that she really appreciates the ease of use of  SalesVu. She believes the inventory management feature and the invoice management one are extremely reliable and adequate for Red Onions Spice & Tea Company

“It tracks our employee’s hours, the POS has an easy interface to learn and use, and most important, it handles our inventory – which can be fairly complex. I can easily manage and balance deposits as I receive email reports when a shift closes out. I can add new products or make corrections from home and while I travel, and a simple refresh at the POS instantly shows the new information. Staff can view what is on order so they can communicate to our customers when an item is expected back in stock. The web interface is also easy to use. As businesses are complex enough, I appreciate the ease of use.”

Before SalesVu Kathy used paper and spreadsheet, not even a traditional POS that helped her keep track electronically of the purchases. What a change it has been for Kathy! An important upgrade to modern payments with SalesVu retail POS and inventory management tool. She told us that from all the POS options in the market, several other products required a major cash investment in software and online services that they just couldn’t afford.

“One of my favorite things about SalesVu is that it’s so intuitive to use. We have to train quite a few staff and not having to explain the POS system is a big help in getting new staff up and running in no time. Another favorite item is the inventory and flexible product listings. Most of our items in stock are kept in small quantities in order to maintain freshness, so having an accurate inventory at my fingertips wherever I go has been of major importance to us.”

resquoo amends any tech issues while SalesVu iPad POS System overhauls their internal functionality.

 

 

Untitled

 

resquoo is a start-up company formed 14 months ago that offers data recovery; data transfer services, device tune-ups and virus removal services for broken computers, hard drives, storage media and mobile devices. They have conveniently placed drop-off / pick-up kiosks at shopping malls and recover information from all types of devices from their data recovery lab in Peabody, MA. There, the magic of retrieving all that “lost” stuff happens. With a very high success rate, resquoo charges affordable rates. resquoo is also a member of the Apple Consultants Network and employs Apple certified support professionals. Hands down, resquoo is the place to go for unexpected or accidental damage, data loss, and virus removal.

SalesVu POS solution has proven to be helpful and valuable for this recently formed company. We had the unique opportunity to talk to resquoo business owners about their experience with us:

 

“What we really like is SalesVu POS solution front-end, both in the app, and on the web. It is really comprehensive, and it is really great at categorizing retail goods. SalesVu is so intuitive we don’t have to train any of our employees in how to use it properly. Obviously, this is a tremendous time saver for us and it really put us forward in regards to our efficiency. We can add or modify the large number of services and products we offer from within SalesVu and that fits ideally to the characteristics of our business.”

 

SalesVu definitely has some good news for all the ones reading that are in desperate need for information recovery, data transfer, virus removals or tune-up’s: resquoo is planning to expand their services and even maybe franchise! resquoo operates with state-of-the-art and sophisticated technologies that guarantee an excellent result when you drop-off your devices at the conveniently located kiosks inside the malls.

 

iokso

“Since our pick-up and drop off locations are kiosks in shopping malls some of our technicians are mobile and are required to perform on-site diagnostics and some services at customer locations. Therefore, an integrated, multi location enabled and mobile POS, like SalesVu POS, was required.”

 

From all the POS out there, why SalesVu? We asked resquoo business owners and they answered:

 

“SalesVu offered the best mobile and cloud solution, one that enabled us to combine charges for our unique customer services. As part of our services, we also sell replacement, larger capacity hard drives, and other storage media, (e.g. Backup solutions). Thus, inventory tracking, ordering, as well as staff management, and time tracking were important tools SalesVu POS was able to provide us”.

 

The first POS solution resquoo used was SalesVu and we have provided them a reliable tool to make easy transactions, quick deposits in banks, and very competitive credit card transaction rates.

“SalesVu’s team has proven to be extremely responsive with round-the-clock responses on the phone. I can say how supportive they have been with us because no matter how many times we need them, SalesVu always gets back to us right away.”

 

Accidentally clicking on the delete button happens and, for that, we have the capable minds of resquoo to help us with data retrieval as well as due to tech malfunctions, or simply data transfers because you’ve moved to a new device. They’ll put contacts, pictures and songs and all your important documents back where they should be! Because we are constantly handling electronics that may contain important parts of our lives, and because we definitely don’t want to lose that, be sure to visit their website and like them on Facebook.

Acute Payrolls Have Never Been Easier with SalesVu Employee Scheduling

1237799_10151582627455685_377708866_n

Antonelli’s Cheese owner, John Antonelli  has been asked many times “Why a Cheese Shop?”, his response is simple and always the same: it comprises everything he loves. Traveling, spending time together with his partner, and eating great cheese. Antonelli placed himself in a very intense cheese bootcamp, attended to cheese conferences and found out the secrets for the production of an amazing product. He concentrates on sourcing the finest artisanal cheese and serve the growing demand of their customers with private events and cheese education sessions. SalesVu employee management system has been essential integrating their restaurant needs. 

“We have two reasons for needing SalesVu.  1) We were in need of a clock-in/clock-out employee time system that would integrate both sides of the street.  and 2) We operate events in our Cheese House on a regular basis and it requires a POS solution to allow us to check guests out after making purchases post event.”

Antonellis chose SalesVu to assist with their clock-in/clock-out management because the interface of SalesVu employee management  is holistic enough to control the payment of the team members and check their hours of work.

“Employee scheduling is the most helpful tool and it adapts to our necessities. Before using SalesVu for our clock management system, we were leveraging our Microsoft RMS software installed on a HP computer. It was not really convenient, SalesVu employee management became the ultimate solution to submit payments efficiently”

What they like the most is the easy-to-use functionality of the app. It suits Antonelli’s Cheese requirements and according to John:

” I am so happy that that we are able to sync both locations! Team members can flow between spaces without having to worry about clocking. Checking in and out at the correct location, has never been easier. We have now a more acute payroll for our team members and for our business.”

Persona Custom Clothing says SalesVu multi-location iPad POS System is an ideal fit for their business

inside-jacket-tags

Founded 2012, personacustom.com is all about creating the best suit, one that adapts to your body and is fully customized to your needs. They create suits for males tailored to unique personalities and measures. Frankly, it doesn’t get better than that. Business owner Matt Webber uses the SalesVu multi-location POS system to get the most out of its business.

” We want people to live the tailoring experience. We work with styling consultants that go to where the customers are. Style consultants,virtually and in person, make up the entire design process. We take the measures of the customers, and then create the suits in a period of time that goes from 4 to 6 weeks.”

Personacustom.com does not have a physical store; therefore, there is no need to have a cash register, and SalesVu multi-location POS system for retail fits perfectly into their necessities.

“We need a system that adapts to where the styling consultants go. It is essential that we  know as owners about the reports and orders made. SalesVu multi-location POS system help us to track our consultants in a robust system, to record orders, and provides us with some insights about our customers. All bases are covered with SalesVu multi-location system”

According to Webber, SalesVu  was the least expensive multi-location POS system, and was also the most compelling tool for sales reports.

“Most of our consultants use their own devices to process payments.  They just use their phone to type down the credit card information. It is very convenient since they don’t really need the credit card reader. “

Matt confessed that he tried to switch to another brand, but that he quickly realized the perfect balance he found with SalesVu multi-location POS system. 

“If you are a business owner, you know that credit card rates are among the most important things. However, I understood that I needed SalesVu sales reports and rapidly began to appreciate the real value of the platform. The app in general is really easy to use, no training is needed. My employees can process transactions without any complications and honestly, all my consultants were able to figure it out SalesVu functions by themselves. They work on their own, so the fact that no additional training was needed for processing payments, was great!.”
