Benefits

• You get the savings (between 2 - 4% of profit) which are gained through more accurate pricing, identification of shop lifting, and more efficient stock control. One major benefit that many customers mention is that, when you are scanning, customers stop questioning your prices!! Some have increased their prices accordingly!! See our graph that shows how ShopMate helps you make more money.
• We save hours of your time by maintaining the product / price file for you. Independent research has shown that retailers normally spend 6 - 7 hours a week keeping their Epos systems up to date. If you DON’T keep an Epos up to date, it is a COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY, because you lose the main benefit of Epos – accurate data about the business. If you had a manager running the shop, and were paying them £6.00 / hour, you would immediately save between £36 - £42 / week.
• Our installation approach means that the system arrives on day one with all your prices in it so you start trading immediately - with a full set of shelf edge labels as well!
• So you get all the information you need to run your business more profitably, whilst not having to spend hours ensuring its accuracy. All your reports can be viewed or printed at the touch of a button.
• You can apply your normal mark-ups to the products even though we maintain the price files for you.
• You know you are always selling your stock at the right price whoever is at the till.
• Although many people do not think about disaster recovery until it is too late, the design of ShopMate means that we always hold a back-up copy of your data, which is never more than 24 hours old. So if the worst happens flood, fire, or general data loss, it is quickly and easily dealt with by The Retail Data Partnership.
• A weekly fee covers our service. Hardware maintenance is optional.
• The system works with multiple tills and multiple shops where required.
• ShopMate has been designed to be very easy to use. We provide full training, and help.
