Score more sales with speedy receipts

If you run a store you know all too well how much people value speed and efficiency when you’re making a sale. You need both your staff and your hardware to be the best you can find. But technology’s a fast-moving target and you need to keep up.

Once the sale happens your customer expects to get served and be on their way in a blink, but a lot of POS hardware is not up to the job. Epson, however, may have just what you need – Their new tm-t88iv thermal printer can create two-color receipts with more clarity and speed than their peers, and at less cost that you’d think.

Getting an edge on your competition is the best way to win, and the brisk buying experience this printer can give you could be just the incentive they need to make your customers talk. Just check it out and you may feel the same…

Despite losing almost $2.5-billion dollars in the third quarter of 2009, the USPS mail service still offers the most persuasive way to get your sales message across.

Emails can be deleted with a click, their contents unseen. But an envelope in your hand is far harder to treat with such shallow concern. Most of your competitors go the email route, so if your brochures are tactile who’ll win the prize?

And it’s not just brochures – The better online stores offer catalogs, door hangers, postcard printing, business cards and dozens more ways to get your message noticed – and turn your competitors green.

New sales are the lifeblood of all business, and what some less insightful people might tell you is ‘old-fashioned’ tech can still score more new sales than you think. Check out your options and you may soon be convinced…
