<\/b>Small business owners need to get insights from their purchase data to grow. \u00a0Point-of-sale (POS) technology not only makes it easy to accept the latest payment method but they also give owners great insight to their business via real-time reporting. \u00a0With this data, you\u2019re empowered with ways to grow sales, say, through an online storefront.<\/p>\nPOS masters\u00a0Vend<\/a> introduced a cloud app that collaborates with business owners to sell products in-store and online. \u00a0Augmenting your customer dataset can help you make inventory decisions, develop a customer loyalty program, and see product performance immediately. \u00a0No longer do you need to track sales across channels in spreadsheets and hard copy records.\n\nIntegrating Vend: Making Your Workflows Seamless<\/b>\n\nWhen multi-channel sales begin to flourish, proper customer engagement and inventory management techniques are needed to keep customers happy. \u00a0Traditional sales methods can\u2019t keep up with changing purchasing behavior or competitors in your market. \u00a0Given this, it\u2019s important for POS data to be available and accessible throughout the business. \u00a0Such insights inform staffing strategies through HR apps, merchandising plans through inventory management apps, and customer targeting through marketing automation apps. \u00a0With data integration, an automatic digital customer loyalty program could have triggered customer spending incentives or for an inventory management program, product re-orders. \u00a0By itself, Vend is a proper POS system, but it will not manage your workforce or automate your accounting and invoices until it is completely integrated with your other apps.\n\nWorkato Optimizes Vend\u2019s Value<\/b>\n\nWorkato\u2019s ready-made recipes integrate Vend<\/a> with accounting, payroll and finance apps so that your business data is consistently synced across platforms. \u00a0Say farewell to the days vendors receive late payments, employees are paid untimely and your product is stalled because of cash flow issues. \u00a0Hard coded integrations are not flexible enough to keep up with how quickly the retail landscape changes. \u00a0Outsource the work needed to create custom integrations so as the owner, you can focus on high-profit activities.\n
