Components of Retail Management Software
Being a successful retail manager involves having full control and understanding of the numerous aspects that make up your business. You will need to be able to analyze and take action on information related to sales, allocation, employee performance, pricing, and more. In order to do that, you’re going to need a support system stronger than a file cabinet full of documents or a folder full of spreadsheets. With ChainDrive’s retail management software package, you can take advantage of a full spectrum of tools and components that help you better manage your business or chain. Let’s take a look at a handful of these tools and how they can improve your work.
- Point of Sale is a tool designed to streamline the checkout process. It captures customer information and buying patterns automatically as you make the sales, and it also automatically accounts for markdowns and other special considerations on any products scanned.
- Order Fulfillment offers you full control over the fulfillment of all orders filled via the web or elsewhere. You can choose how you want your packages delivered and automate most of the entire final process in your business transactions.
- Product Management includes tools that help set the right prices for your products, and it also helps you keep track of all of your inventory in real time.
- Retail Merchandising gives you insight into your merchandise and helps you make better decisions about allocation and replenishment, resulting in faster turnover and more profit.
- Mobile Marketing utilizes SMS technology to help you keep in contact with customers on-the-go, promoting special marketing campaigns, new products, sales, and more. Involving your customers in new ways increases your customer base and produces more loyalty to your store!
