Technology has played a major role in our day to day life, whether its a simple Fan on the ceiling of your roof or complex circuits based Television for your entertainment. It would not be wrong to say that mankind has come a long way and electronics & Gadgets have played a major role in this evolution.

Today Blog will tell you how RetailGraph works as an Electronics Store Software OR Mobile Store Software and how it manages Inventory, Promotions, vendors, customers and manage over all store accounts.

Before we start i hope you have gone through http://retailgraph.blogspot.com/2013/07/retailgaph-software-for-shoe-stores.html which has software video's showcasing functionality of RetailGraph Software. 

Let us understand the Product Master through this Video which shares on how to create a product in RetailGraph, and add different attributes related to it.

Through PRODUCT MASTER we can create our Products in RetailGraph and then we can Purchase the Products or add products through "opening stock" in Lot details Tab as shown below:

Other Important aspect of a Electronics or Mobile store is the Promotion. RetailGraph has different options to handle promotions like

Promotion On: Product

Product can be selected and promotion can run on a Free Product or Free Quantity.

For Example promotion on Free Product (on purchase of 1qty ONIDA AIRCONDITION 3-SPLIT 1.5 3STAR (or qualifying Qty), 1  of PHILIPS JUICER is free OR as specified in promotion)

For Example on Free Quantity (on Purchase of 5 ONIDA AIRCONDITION 3-SPLIT 1.5 3STAR (or qualifying Qty), 1 ONIDA AIRCONDITION 3-SPLIT 1.5 3STAR is free OR as specified in promotion). Generally this is not the case in Electronics Market but we have shared as a way of promotion which can be managed through the RetailGraph software.

Promotion on Marketing Group:

Marketing Group can be selected and promotion can run on a Free Product or Free Point

For Example promotion on Free Product (on purchase of 10000 rupees of (or qualifying Amt) product of specific marketing company , 1 piece of Micro-Max Mobile is free OR as specified in promotion)

• For Example on Free Point (on purchase of a minimum amount (or qualifying Amt) points are given as reward (as specified in promotion) which can be later redeemed.)

Invoice Value can be selected and promotion can run on a free Product or free Point or billing head

1. On invoice value of INR 10000 (or qualifying Amount) irrespective of Product or Marketing Company , a product of specific value and quantity will be given as a free gift (as specified in promotion).
2. On invoice value of INR 10000 (or qualifying Amount) irrespective of Product or Marketing Company, free points (as specified in promotion) will be added to the customer's kitty.
3. On invoice value of INR 10000 (or qualifying Amount) irrespective of Product or Marketing Company, a billing head with desired name can be created and introduced at the time of billing.

Customers can get the advantage of the promotion at the time of billing.

Mobile / Electronic Stores can also have their own loyalty card coupons and can issue them to the customer, so when the next time customer visits, just by clicking his name the promotion points will be reflected and can be redeemed on the purchase.

Just as an example the below screen shot of the software shows how promotion  applies on the billing invoice. You can manually select the promotion or can set it on Auto Promotion mode, by which it automatically applies on the qualifying amount. The discounted value shown in Add/Less.

Another Important task of a Mobile/Electronic Store Software is CUSTOMER ENGAGEMENT

Through the Mobile Store Software you can send SMS and Emails to your Customers. It helps you to send various reports and analytic to management, not only that but you can also schedule the reports on a set frequency and the reports will be auto shared to the recipient on the respective day.

As shown below you can send Anniversary wishes ; Birthday wishes ; Message ; Reports ; and Transaction 

 
As shown below different reports like Sales & Stock ; Product wise sales ; Product wise purchase ; Sales Transaction ; and Purchase Transaction can be shared.

Different file formats like Excel ; HTML ; PDF ; RTF ; and TXT can be attached in Email.

Stock / Inventory management is another area which makes or breaks the Stores Brand image. You need to maintain an optimum inventory in stores and , which can be set by viewing the sales history and buying trends of different products. We have explained how to add min and max stock of products in the video below:

This way you will always be sure that the stores have optimum inventory levels and as soon as the inventory goes below the set level a message or notification will alert you on the same.

Stores also need to handle the Taxes and different products and services have different taxes. The tax details can be defined in detail manner in the software as shown in the below video.

RetailGraph for Shoe Stores

Hello. Today we have an interesting story of a man and his struggle to smooth line his business and work towards expansion.

RAMNATH SHOE STORE

You just say Ramnath JI'S SHOP and people will guide you till the shop. 

Ramnath ji Shoe Store was a brand that was developed by generation through their dedication and hard work.Ramnath ji was more than half a century old Shoe Store, started by Late shri Ramnath. and was managed by his son Kamalnath since last 25 years, and now its kamalnaths son Gopal's turn to carry forward the tradition or do some thing else.

Being from a business family Gopal poses excellent business acumen since the childhood but to explore the world and learn new things kamalnath has send him to do his masters in business administration and understand business in today's generation.

Kamalnath is going through a tough time in business, due to the increase in inflation, growing competition and ever shrinking margins which are now rock bottom. He  is looking for options to expand in other cities to grow his business and grow the business.


Major Challenges faced by the businesses were:

• Pilferage of goods causing direct loss
• Unable to plan customer engagement.
• Managing Suppliers were a tedious task.
• Most of the suppliers have automated and discourage him due to difficult in communication
• Malls and Big Brands have reduced footfalls
• Manual processes
• Sale,Billing,accounting, finances, profit loss and over all analysis and much more.
