How Mobile Point Of Sale Systems Can Revolutionize Your Business
Posted on: 2 April 2018
Point of sale systems are usually stationary. That is, they have to sit in one location, plug into a wall and into a phone line, and remain that way. That works out fine if you own and run a gas station convenience store, but what about a business that could operate on-the-go?
Would it not be worth it to you to be able to accept payments no matter where you are? Filling orders on the spot is a definite plus. That is why a mobile point of sale system should be part of what you do everyday. Here is how such a system can revolutionize your business.
Engage Interested Customers on the Morning Commute
It happens. Being social and sociable creatures, we humans often strike up a conversation with those near us, most often on the bus, on the subway, in a shared cab, etc.. Usually when somebody asks about what you do for a living, that is an open door through which you can step and introduce your products or goods.
If the ride is long enough, you could get that person to buy something. Being able to whip out your mobile point of sale device, plug it into your tablet or smartphone, and letting the customer complete his/her order with a swipe of a debit or credit card only takes a couple of minutes. It is that quick and easy to make a sale you would not have otherwise made.
Making Sales Anywhere and Everywhere
Sell something in a gallery. Sell something sitting in the waiting room of your doctor's or dentist's office. Whether you solicit or you are invited to talk about what you sell/do, a mobile point of sale device and its corresponding app means that work and business can happen anywhere and everywhere, and at any time.
Work at Any Time
Imagine not having to keep regular business hours, or mixing business with pleasure. Go to a bar to have drinks, sell something at one in the morning to somebody you have talked up half the night. Sell something to the cabby who is taking you to your doctor at eight in the morning. Sell something to the pizza guy in the pizza shop at three in the afternoon. You could easily work around the clock when you have a mobile point of sale system built into your smart device, which makes it so easy to take time off, or become a complete workaholic--your choice.
