Consultancy team launched by UK Point of Sale
Published:  15 April, 2007

A newly launched consultancy service is helping retailers’ increase their basket spend and pick up some great new ideas to communicate with the customer.

Known as "Rapid" the new consultancy team was launched by Stockport-based manufacturer UK Point of Sale at the Convenience Retail Exhibition Show.

Aimed at all retailers, including small franchises, convenience stores, large food chains, café or sandwich bars, Rapid’s consultants are on hand to help maximise sales and help with those promotional conundrums. Rapid will take a fresh look at a business and come up with creative ideas to boost productivity.

Moreover, UK Point of Sale offer a unique service for all customers - if they do not have a product that fits a customer’s specification, they will create a bespoke product just for them.

Sales and marketing director at UK Point of Sale, Debbie Jamieson comments: "The point of sale market has moved on from one size fits all, customers have very specific needs, but may be having difficulty finding the right product for them. We spotted a gap in the market and have launched Rapid in response to that need. By going back to basics and thinking at the four P’s, we take can take a fresh look at our customer’s product, price, place and promotion, and give them exactly what they’re looking for.

"With over 300 different products on offer, we have everything you could possibly need for point of sale products, yet we still maintain a high quality and delivery standard plus our bespoke service.

"Our product consultancy really pays off, customers see a good return on investment. They increase sales through communication, layout and merchandising – it all makes for a good return on investment."

If catching the customer’s eye is the objective, the Rapid consultants can help any retailer’s products "talk" to the customer. Retailers looking to promote their wares can see a range of products at www.ukpointofsale.co.uk
