- Your CDW account team will work with you to find the right technology solutions for your needs, including a mix of the following:
Point of Sale (POS) Systems - Today’s POS systems are much more than simple cash registers. They are an interactive conduit between customer and retailers. Using integrated technology, POS systems allow retailers to quickly and accurately collect sales and customer information. This information is then used by enterprise resource management (ERP), supply chain management (SCM) and customer relationship management (CRM) systems to keep accurate inventory supplies in stock. They also provide key support to customer-focused programs such as reward and loyalty programs.
Digital Signage - Digital Signage, also called dynamic messaging or narrowcasting, is the art of communicating via interactive messaging to employees and customers. Instead of using flyers, bulletin boards, or posters which can only hold one message, digital signage offers a platform that can change minute by minute. This enables organizations to maximize their return on investment while minimizing costs spent on advertising and communication. Digital signage can even help reduce human resource costs with self serve kiosks.
Gift Card Programs - Create greater brand loyalty with a customized gift card program that will help connect customers to your brand. With three options to choose from, there is a gift card program for your needs:
Gift Card Now
Create limited runs of gift cards with your company information. Low minimums of 100-card orders and reorders, with optional reloading capability, and real-time/monthly reporting.
Gift Card Advantage
Organizations can create greater brand loyalty with a customized gift card program that helps connect customers to their brand. Low minimums of 500-card orders and reorders, with optional reloading capability, and real-time/monthly reporting.
Gift Card Custom
Control your destiny with a customized gift card campaign. Minimum of 1,000-card orders and reorders, optional reloading capability with expiration dates/inactivity fees (where applicable), robust daily/weekly/monthly reporting, customizable maximum and minimum card amounts, and more.
Asset and Inventory Management Tools - Organizations strive to gain greater control and efficiencies managing their assets (technology systems, office equipment, people, etc). These tools help manage the complete lifecycle of particular assets, track their location to ensure equipment is not missing or stolen, and to ensure upgrades and system deployments run efficiently.
As organizations bring inventory into to their warehouses they are concerned with where product is stored, how it is distributed locations and customers, how to track units sold, and when to replenish inventory. In many cases an asset and inventory management system can automate these processes and improve forecasting efforts and inventory positions.
CDW POS/AIDC (Automatic Identification Data Capture) specialists can perform a site assessment and help design an asset or inventory management solution that will track your most valuable assets or inventory.
