Overview

Business professional goes beyond providing stock control and automated sales transactions, it has been designed with power and flexibility in mind and can improve the performance of any single or multi-store operation. 

Information at your fingertips...Because information is collected the first time, full purchase history including work status is available at the push of a button! In addition, film is scanned into the system and this automatically records the brand, film size, film speed and exposure. On the same screen the operator also selects specific customer requests such as print size, number of sets etc. 

The operator is in control at all times... It¡¯s easy. You never have to leave the computer screen to provide the customer with feedback on the progress of their work. You may have a customer who is not sure what type of job was completed or does not have their Customer Card with them. Not a problem. Type in the name or telephone number and the latest information comes up on your screen. 

Outstanding results using Business Professional for development and print... With Business Professional the Development and Print process is fast and efficient! Every time a new customer walks into your store, they walk away with a personalised Customer Card. This encourages first time customers to keep coming back. You should see a minimum 10 per cent increase in repeat business! 

Save money and Increase your profits... With Business Professional you no longer need Job Bags. This means an average business saves around $4000 a year just on bags! You can print specific reports at any time to identify owners of uncollected work. You will no longer have profit languishing in drawers ¨C improving your cash flow! The system will notify you when it¡¯s time to reorder stock and consumables such as film, paper, chemicals etc., resulting in reduced stock investment. You can create a customer loyalty program to encourage repeat business via on-screen or points promotion for Customer Card holders. The end result is improved customer service and increased sales.
