Key takeaways

  • Know every bottle
  • Staff cannot cheat the till
  • Tots and bottles together
  • Closing in minutes

01What owners tell you

In a liquor shop, stock is money on a shelf. A missing bottle is a missing sale, and without a record nobody knows who or when.

  • Bottles go missing and nobody can say when.
  • Tots and bottles from the same stock confuse the counts.
  • Staff sell below price or give free drinks.
  • Cash at night is hard to track.
  • Excise and supplier invoices pile up.

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 wines and spirits shop.

Know every bottleScan in, scan out, and the count matches.
Staff cannot cheat the tillDiscounts need approval.
Tots and bottles togetherStock reduces correctly.
Closing in minutesSee sales by shift.

03Say it like this

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

  • “You will know which bottle left the shop, when and with whom.”
  • “Your staff will not be able to discount without your login.”
  • “Your closing report will tell you every shilling by shift.”
  • “You will see which brands move so you buy what sells.”

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“You will know which bottle left the shop, when and with whom. Your staff will not be able to discount without your login. Your closing report will tell you every shilling by shift. Can I measure your counters this week and send you a written quote?”
