Setting up a new toys & hobbies retail business isn’t easy.

You've poured your heart into this venture.

Your prospective customers are deeply invested in the products you sell. They want a 'go to' destination with exclusive offerings and expertise.

But without the right systems, you'll be too busy putting out fires to focus on the customer experience and too limited in the retail practices you can roll out.

You'll end up understocked in products that customers demand and overstocked in ones they don't.

You need retail software that keeps customers coming back and allows you to work smarter, not harder.

Finding the right POS software is confusing.

Making the wrong choice could hurt your business.

You want to provide a stand out, integrated in-store and online experience.

You're worried that the software might be too complicated for you to use.

You're investing a lot of money so you need to make sure you get shoppers into your store and keep running costs low.

You're not sure what software will help your business grow and flourish with time.

You're strapped for cash but don't want to compromise on customer experience.

You don't have the time to manage admin work manually, you need software that can streamline & automate things for you.

You're exploring other solutions

But they don't give you the complete toolbox for success like Retail Express does.

Basic, entry-level POS software vendors:

Lack the Australian-based, hands-on support and retail expertise that our team provides.

Don't provide a Point of Sale with all the tools you need to maximise sales and service.

Don't let you manage your entire inventory in just a few clicks.

Have limited integration capabilities when you build your online store.

Make it difficult to create customer groups or run advanced loyalty campaigns.

Run into major limitations when you add more stores or expand your inventory levels.

“We really like that Retail Express is easy to use – it has the right balance of useable features and isn’t too expensive to run”.

- Gary Sher, Owner - Casey's Toys
