Q: What was money saving tip 25 in Retail Week?

A: Run store communications through one system

“Systems that act as a central point of contact and knowledge repository for store and head office staff are increasing in popularity, especially with mid-size retailers, because they improve efficiency and reporting ability and ensure that there is only one version of the truth.”

Retail Week, 23rd February

The RAPID store management system plays a major role in shifting retail from one-way store notifications to two-way store communications. Enabling head office staff to interact with store managers and in-store personnel gives them the opportunity to ensure the success of head office initiatives such as sales promotions and monitor compliance to directives e.g. health & safety.

Intelligent, configurable security in the document library will ensure that key documentation such as plans and manuals are always at the fingertips of store personnel.

RAPID acts as a centralised hub for all communications whether it is looking up store details, viewing detailed product descriptions and images, sending out actions for completion or collating a whole range of electronic forms. RAPID provides every team member with a single communication point to all other members of the team.

Get more for less by gaining all the benefits of a two-way store communications system and slashing fax, telephone, printing and postage costs.
