Retail Software Help? - tanTALK

JustDuck · 10-23-2003, 07:26 PM

Hi guys,

i'm opening a spray booth boutique and i'm looking for software advice. Since i don't need to manage Beds i'm wondering if you can recommend some good POS hardware/software.

I need to be able to do all transactions, track a small amount of inventory and i'd even like the program to have built in real time accounting and even web based appointment ability if possible.

any suggestions?

thx

I use quick books. The only way I will buy salon software, I am waiting on someone to create one that will turn on the bed once I put the client in the logged room for them.

Margaret, what do you mean "turn on the bed for them? Ours has a 6 min. delay and the bed starts automatically. Is that what you mean?

Help me out, what is the big appeal with online booking?

On-line booking has many advantages..but not if you are under 10beds..

JustDuck ... you may still wish to sell packages of sessions in your Spray Booth. Suggest you request a Helios Demo ... this will allow you to track you clients purchases and use of sessions ... something a generic accounting package will no assist you in doing.

If I can be of assistance review the use of the Helios Demo when you receive it, give me a call.
