old prices, no labels, handwritten, last year prices - broken or missing guns - how common is this
BEFORE: So often poor labelling leads to price queries at the checkout, which in turn leads to queues , which then build up until the customer decides to leave and may in fact not come again due to poor service The pricing errors could cause you to make poor margin if an old price is used and sell at the wrong price if no label and the operator guesses the price The impact of handwritten signs says a lot about the retailer, and the quality of his products, with pricing queries wasting a lot of staff time.
SOLUTION: A label design suitable for the type of goods will be printed either on purchase or at time of delivery. The linkage to label production means goods inwards can both receive into stock and then second produce labels. The system supports both thermal transfer and windows laser printers. A full range of pre worked design for labels and signs come with it and also available under license is a plant picture CD of over 20000 images. The label styles can print any of the database content and pictures as well, so once the labels content has been loaded anybody can print it without having to remember or write it out each time, plus the price used will be the price on the system
BENEFITS: Good labelling is the key to good Epos, as scanning a working barcode helps tremendously both at the till and on stock takes. Labels and signs are a great opportunity to brand the company image especially on shelf edge or A5 bed cards
