After helping several friends get stores started, more and more people I know have come to me for help in getting their own stores going. It’s actually kind of cool to get everything started for them. I usually start off with helping them get a POS system together from the get go. For fun, I ask them if they know what a tm-t88iv is.
Invariably they don’t which means I need to help them learn about POS systems in general first. A POS system is all about pricing, inventory, and sales information and if you don’t have it, then your store is starting handicapped.
