Key takeaways

  • Charge to room
  • One report for the owner
  • Stock under control
  • Smooth checkout

01What owners tell you

Guests buy at the bar, the restaurant and the front desk. Without one system, charges are lost and the day's income is a guess.

  • Bar and restaurant charges do not reach the room bill.
  • Each outlet keeps its own books.
  • Stock in the bar and kitchen is not tracked.
  • Staff errors at checkout cause arguments.
  • The owner cannot see income by outlet.

02The words that sell

Owners do not buy equipment. They buy the day they want to have. These are the outcomes to talk about when you pitch a POS to hotel.

Charge to roomEvery outlet posts to the guest bill.
One report for the ownerSee income by outlet.
Stock under controlBar and kitchen stock tracked.
Smooth checkoutThe bill is ready and right.

03Say it like this

Short, plain lines work best. Use them as they are or put them in your own words.

  • “Your guests' bar and restaurant charges will arrive on the room bill without paper chits.”
  • “You will see every outlet's income on one screen.”
  • “Your bar stock will be counted against sales.”
  • “Your checkout will be quick and the bill will be right.”

04Your 30-second pitch

Say this when you have the owner's attention at the counter. Stop after the question and let them answer.

Key takeaway“Your guests' bar and restaurant charges will arrive on the room bill without paper chits. You will see every outlet's income on one screen. Your bar stock will be counted against sales. Can I measure your outlets this week and send you a written quote?”
