itekPOS Launches New POS Software at Foodservice Expo, Offsetting Rising Labor Costs for SMBs
Los Angeles (PRWEB) August 15, 2014 -- itekPOS is excited to announce the launch of its new POS software, which it will be officially releasing at the Western Foodservice & Hospitality Expo taking place in Anaheim, CA August 17-19. itekPOS designs point of sale (POS) software that takes advantage of the capabilities of Apple’s iPad and iPhone technologies and cloud-based data storage. Its new POS solution couldn’t be arriving to the market at a more critical point in time, giving small business owners a means to offset the increasing cost of labor as a result of the rising minimum wage in the U.S.
Washington Governor Jay Inslee has recently proposed a 23% increase to the minimum wage, which, while improving the conditions for low-income families and individuals, could have a detrimental impact on small businesses and start-ups. Rather than advocating to suppress wages, itekPOS gives entrepreneurs a way to decrease operational costs to offset the rising cost of labor. The software serves as an affordable solution that allows small businesses to remain profitable in the face of recent policy changes.
Founder and Owner Richard Allen comments, “itekPOS is the first POS to offer real solutions to offset the rising minimum wage costs that are sweeping the nation. It has the tools to manage your labor, not just schedule it.”
Furthermore, the cloud-based software gives owners comprehensive functionalities to help everything run smoothly at the point of sale. Perfect for small restaurants and national chains alike, itekPOS can be used for: mobile, online, and tableside ordering; credit card swiping and processing; running comprehensive reports; and syncing data between multiple terminals and iOS devices. The software can also be used to present a menu to customers via store kiosks so they can place the order themselves.
itekPOS was developed with the restaurant operator in mind, designed to increase employee productivity and improve operational efficiency. It even has built-in marketing tools to help owners minimize their sales and marketing expenses, with features that include SMS texting, customer loyalty rewards, and advanced email marketing functionalities that collect and store customer info, and allow users to send targeted newsletter campaigns to the most devoted patrons.
By allowing servers to place an order right at the table, or letting customers place their own order at self-service kiosks, restaurant owners have the ability to decrease labor costs by 5-10%. The considerable savings awarded by itekPOS gives smaller entrepreneurs a level playing field to compete against larger fast food chains and restaurant conglomerates.
itekPOS is eager to share its innovative POS software solution with small business owners and entrepreneurs in the restaurant industry at the Western Foodservice & Hospitality Expo this Sunday through Tuesday. Sponsored by the California Restaurant Association, this must-attend event brings vendors, business owners, and suppliers together to educate them on the latest trends, products, and practices in the foodservice industry. itekPOS will be showcasing and providing demos of its new software at booth #1239 inside of the Anaheim Convention Center during all three days of the event.
