Custom Counter Design for Point of Sale

Thursday, November 12th, 2009

Sintel System is the leader in Point of Sale and Surveillance. We specialize in business automation and help mom and pop shops to become modern companies driven by technology. Unfortunately most business models do not account for Point of Sale and Surveillance until the project has been completed. This makes installation difficult and ugly since wiring can not be hidden in walls.

When should you purchase your POS and Surveillance Systems?
Although POS and Surveillance are installed once the dust has settled from all the construction, it is still important to plan your POS and Surveillance systems in advanced. In order to have a proper functioning POS System, it is important to have the following two requirements:

  1. Dedicated Power Circuit
  2. Internet or Network Connection
  3. (click see diagram)

Point-of-Sale (POS) Solution and Security Camera Systems for Seasonal Halloween Costume Store

Tuesday, September 1st, 2009

Controlling your inventory and making profits should not be the scary part of your Halloween store.

They pop up at the end of September and are gone by the day after Halloween. What are they? Halloween costume and prop stores. They include stores that sell all types of Halloween costumes as well as stores that rent Halloween costumes and props. The majority of Halloween stores are located in temporary locations typically vacant retail stores that offer short term leases to accommodate the season. Given the low demand for costumes during the year, it obviously would not make sense for most retailers to rent a location year round for the approximate six weeks the industry experiences over 90% of its demand. Your location is temporary and your workers are temporary, but your profits should not be. How about tracking and protecting the most valuable asset of your business – your inventory of costumes and props in the fast paced environment. With inventories ranging from $100,000 for smaller to over $1 million for larger Halloween stores, tracking and protecting your inventory requires the right point-of-sale (POS) system and security camera system. Halloween and seasonal stores typically experience twice the rate of shrinkage associate with the retail industry’s 2.0%. This on average equals to $4,000 to $40,000 in losses for each location. Source of shrinkages include Employee Theft, Shoplifting, Administrative Error, and Vendor Fraud. While other retailers can sometimes afford the losses by making up sales later in the year, seasonal stores don’t have that ability given the short selling time.

How can these issues be addressed effectively and economically? Sintel Systems is the leader in offering seasonal retailers options in protecting their inventory and easing the tasks of controlling their inventory. Sintel Systems offers the right point-of-sale (POS) and security camera system to protect your profits and ease your accounting. Call us early and find out how.

There are two options when seeking point-of-sale (POS) and security cameras systems for your seasonal operation:

Rent and Return It

With the cost of renting your place, buying your inventory, and paying your temporary employees, you might want to also obtain your point-of-sale (POS) and security camera system on a temporary basis, too. While you might operate your Halloween store every year, you may not want to store the equipment the rest of the year. Additionally, renting and leasing give you some tax benefits that might suit your condition well.

Here is how it works: Contact us and give us an idea of how large your store(s) is and how much inventory you intend to carry. We are ready to help you if you have one or multiple stores. Don’t really know? Our extensive experience lets us help. We will let you know how many point-of-sale stations (POS) you will need and how many cameras you will need. We give you all the info you needs. If you are local, we offer local installation or you can simply pick it up. We ship across the country and the world. Once you get your package, follow the simple instructions. Over the phone or Internet training and support is available as well. After the season is over, you simple package all the equipment and send it back to us.

Buy and Keep It
You also have the option of buying and keeping the equipment for next year’s season. Everything works the same as the rental option; expect that there is no need to return. If you have another business you are involved, we can simply help you use the point-of-sale (POS) or security camera system for your next business.

So call your Halloween and seasonal retail experts and Sintel Systems (888.SINTEL-6) and let us help you keep more of your profits.

Frozen Yogurt Point of Sale – Custom Counter Design

Saturday, August 29th, 2009

We specialize in working with our clients’ contractors in order to be able to fit the Point of Sale System in the design of the store. Much too often people don’t take into consideration how the Point of Sale System will look once the business has been built. The typical Point of Sale System will have the screen sitting on the cash drawer with the printer and scale one either side. Although the package is complete and works, it can be better installed with benefits.

Frozen Yogurt Point of Sale

Cash Drawer installed under the counter and the POS unit afloat, you can make sure that no food particles are stuck between the counter and the POS System.

Cleaning your counter top just became easier. A customized desktop mount is used to hold the Point of Sale unit afloat about the counter. This makes sure by cleaning and wiping down the counter there are no food products that get stuck under the POS System. The printer and scale are easily lifted and the surface of the counter can be wiped down.

SURVEILLANCE:  The Surveillance System consists of a 4 Camera Package covering the front and back prep area. It is important to note the role surveillance plays in a Frozen Yogurt StoreYogurt With A Twist uses CCTV to protect their most valuable assets: Frozen Yogurt Machines.  Since it is the customer pouring the frozen yogurt, it is important to cover such areas as a deterrent.

Active Cultures Frozen Yogurt is our example of a full service frozen yogurt store.  Here the process is different then the weighted method.  Full Service frozen yogurt requires a traditional menu with pre-designed frozen yogurt products.  Surveillance is more preventive in regards to employee behavior rather then customer.  Since the employee is the person creating the product, it is important to make sure that all products are created in according to the recipe provided.  Extending topping portions can become instant lose in sales due to shrinkage.
