In the current point of sale market, a common sales scheme is enticing new customers with “free POS hardware.” But in addition to tying up the actual hardware costs into credit card processing rates, system fees, or add-on module fees, these providers typically limit their POS system to a specified number of terminals, forcing merchants to pay for the additional stations they need to grow their business.

​Some might call this a proper business investment. Were these providers the only sellers in the market, that would be true. But with Aldelo Express POS, merchants obtain a modern cloud point of sale system with zero add-on or hardware costs, and even receive an unlimited number of POS software licenses, updates, and software upgrades over the life of their restaurant.

Top 3 Reasons Why Resellers Should Attend a Trade Show in 2023

2-minute read ---
​

In 2023, trade shows across all industries are climbing back to pre-COVID pandemic levels, providing point of sale resellers valuable opportunities for growing their customer base. Though digitally-driven communication and sales has accelerated in the industry, attending in-person trade shows offers Aldelo resellers a unique and effective way to build new and existing customer relationships.

Here are the top three reasons POS resellers should attend a trade show in 2023:

3. Find New Customer Leads

Digital networking will never be as impactful as in-person introductions, conversations, and follow-ups with potential customers. Millions of people attend restaurant and hospitality trade shows each year. A great way to target customers in a specific region or city is by attending a location-specific industry trade show. The restaurant community is tight knit and communicates within an intricate network, so increase your business’s exposure to regional customers by attending an in-person trade show!

1. Know Your Market

Getting to know customers in your area is essential to running a successful point-of-sale business. In addition to the restaurant owner’s name and contact information, some questions to ask include:
  • What is your current POS system? (ECR, Cloud, or Windows-based?)
  • Do you have a lease? How long is left in your lease term?

Maintaining a close relationship with restaurant owners in your market not only keeps your business top of mind when they decide to explore new POS solutions, but helps you better understand what features customers are looking for and areas of their operation they are looking to improve. Aldelo assists resellers with providing prospective merchants with a compelling TCO (total cost of ownership) and ROI (return on investment) analysis utilizing the restaurant's actual data.
