Stock In Store
- May 8, 2015
Never Miss a Sale is a growing philosophy in online retailing. However, most clicks-and-mortar retail businesses have NOT implemented this functionality. Why?
- Stock accuracy in store is not reliable,
- Uploading stock feeds to the online store adds overhead to the website
- Most POS and inventory management systems don’t support regular updates.
NOW Solutions has developed a fully responsive, platform independent solution to manage Stock in Store. On any device, it allows customers to:
- Find their Nearest Store or Search by Postcode

- View status as: Available, Sold Out or Check with Store
- Call your store directly (any device)
- Email your store directly (any device)
- Show the distance to the nearest store
- Links to Apple/Google Maps for directions
