Finding a reliable POS software provider is an essential part of any retail business.
Les Kirk, Chief Operating Officer of NMG.
WINSTON-SALEM, NC (May 23, 2011)
Nationwide Marketing
Group (NMG), parent company to
RentDirect Nationwide,
America’s largest buying and marketing organization for
independent dealers, has partnered with ePass Enterprise, Tyler,
STORIS and Reliable Softworks, four of the industry’s leading
Point of Sale (POS) software providers to ensure their members
have access to the latest technologies to most effectively
manage their businesses.
“Finding a reliable POS software provider is an essential
part of any retail business,” said Les Kirk, Chief Operating
Officer of NMG. “The need to integrate new technologies like
smart phones and tablets with POS, dealer web initiatives and
consumer financing makes it crucial for our group to partner
with the leaders in the POS channel.”
Many independent dealers are now reaping the benefits of a
computerized POS system including accurate accounting, better
management of service and delivery, less inventory shrinkage,
in-depth reports, faster checkouts and the ability to easily
collect contact information from their customers.
For over 30 years, ePass Enterprise has been
offering sales and service software for medium to large dealers.
According to owner of ePASS, Nick Faiola, their program can
provide dealers with a simple base system to a fully automated
sales and service environment with integrated finance features.
“We are a forward thinking company that wants to see
improvement,” said Faiola. “That’s why our system was purposely
written as a Windows application, so it has a unique, yet user
friendly feel that is compatible with any PC environment.”
Another leading provider, Tyler, has
delivered state-of-the-art point of sale inventory control
solutions to the specialty dealer for 30 years. Their focus has
always been to help dealers improve bottom-line profits by
providing the tools to make better buying and selling decisions.
“We work with single stores to national multi-store chains,”
said Rick Albert, National Accounts Manager of Tyler. “A dealer
doesn’t have to understand IT to get the full benefits of our
system. Our team handles all of the programming, backups and
updates so the dealer can focus on running their business.”
STORIS is a fully integrated POS and supply
chain management solution, that connects all aspects of retail
operations in a real time, windows based intuitive platform.
“As a result of STORIS‘ unmatched scalability and multiple
software deployment options, we are uniquely capable of
servicing members of all sizes,” said Mark Van Winkle, Director
of New Business Development for STORIS. “Our clients range in
size from one to 5,000 users so they never have to worry about
outgrowing us.”
According to Van Winkle, STORIS electronically delivers new
features monthly and major revisions annually at no additional
charge.
“We invest over 50,000 man-hours in development each year to
ensure retailers have the best practices and competitive
features to run their business more efficiently and maximize the
return on their investment.”
Mike Baron, owner of
Reliable Softworks,
is an independent dealer and member of NMG with over 60 years of
retail sales and service experience. In 2006, his team developed
and began using Reliable Softworks in their own stores and in
2008 made it publicly available to other dealers.
“Many of our clients are appreciative of how much we
understand their business and what they go through every day,”
said Baron. “Our POS system is proven to cut costs, increase
cash flow, and improve management control.”
To learn more about how POS software can make your business
more efficient, more profitable, and a better place for your
customers to shop; or to find out more about all of the member
services Nationwide Marketing Group provides including an
invitation to our upcoming Nationwide PrimeTime! buying show and
strategic conference on August 21-24, 2011 at the Gaylord Texan
in Dallas call 336-722-4681 or visit
