Improving Liquor Store Inventory with Integrated Data Collector
All store owners know that keeping track of inventory is an important element in running a successful business so they accept the tedious hours spent on data entry and relaying information each time new inventory comes in. This was the case for one of our liquor store clients when they came to us:
“We spend hours almost weekly doing inventory. We have had to have our employees come in early to count the new product that comes in, record it and then enter it in the inventory lists manually, calculating for the additional inventory. Our biggest need is making our inventory tracking process more efficient. We currently run all of our sales from our cash register and use paper spreadsheets to record inventory. What do you recommend to speed up the process?”
This client’s experience is common. Inventory management can not only be time consuming and tedious but costly as well. Spending so much time and man hours on counting, costs you in payroll, morale, and takes away from hours you could spend on growing your business. We were happy to help by integrating their Point of Sale Package with our Data Collector Scanner to help improve their inventory tracking:
“We tried the inventory scanner right away and were impressed with how efficient it is. It’s easy to use, takes much less time and makes it easy to update our inventory lists. Now we don’t have problems like math errors and missing bottles.”
We were excited to get the feedback from this liquor store client and as always enjoy sharing our inventory management solutions! The Data Collector Integration works with our Point of Sale system to make the inventory process easier and more efficient.
