In today’s competitive business environment, having the right tools is crucial for success. A point of sale (POS) software is one such tool that can significantly impact a business’s operations. While generic POS solutions (such as Square® or Clover®) work for some, opting for a POS software specific to the tanning salon industry offers several benefits. Here’s why choosing an industry-specific POS software is a smart move.

1. Tailored Features and Functionality: Industry-specific POS software such as TanTrack, is designed to meet the unique requirements of tanning salons. It offers features and functionalities specific to the industry, including inventory management, online package and product sales, recording of tanning session times, customer management and direct control of tanning equipment.
2. Enhanced User Experience: Industry-specific POS software provides a user interface that is intuitive and familiar to business owners and their staff. TanTrack is designed to work seamlessly with how your employees interact and assist customers, quickly process transactions, manage products and record their hours worked.
3. Deep Industry Knowledge: Providers of industry-specific POS software possess extensive domain expertise. They understand the challenges and opportunities faced by businesses in that particular industry. Through dozens of years and thousands of customers, TanTrack has been optimized for how tanning salons best operate.
4. Integration Capabilities: Many industry-specific POS software solutions offer seamless integration with other business systems like accounting software or CRM tools. This eliminates manual data entry and allows for real-time data synchronization. TanTrack seamlessly integrates with Quickbooks® accounting software and all timer systems for tanning beds. Over 300 customizable reports provide you the insights specific to your business.
5. Scalability and Future Growth: Industry-specific POS software is designed to accommodate the evolving needs of growing businesses. It can handle larger inventories, multiple locations, and additional functionalities. A recent example is the integration TanTrack has to newly launched spray tanning equipment from Sunless® and Mystic Tan®.

Overall, industry-specific POS software offers several advantages for business owners. Tailored features, enhanced user experience, deep industry knowledge, integration capabilities, and scalability contribute to the success and efficiency of your tanning salon business. By investing in the right POS software you gain a competitive edge, streamline operations, and provide an exceptional customer experience.
