Model & Hobby Shops are unique businesses, specialty retail shops catering to highly niche needs. From a big range of products to handling special orders to variable pricing if they service club members to managing repairs in some cases, the business management needs of these businesses can be complex.
Tower Systems is grateful to offer software for Model & Hobby Shops. This is the same software as we sell to sewing businesses as the needs cross-match. From efficient and accurate workflow to nurturing customer relationships, this software made for Model & Hobby Shops is a win for these businesses, helping them leverage their specialty knowledge for more valuable and repeatable business.
We have seen some Model & Hobby Shops sell by weight and length, which our software handles easily, as it does selling in fractions.
You can sell items by scanning a barcode, entering a SKU or easily looking up the description of the item. Plus, there is the benefit of being able to suspend the sale while the shopper searches out items to add to their purchase.
There is so much flexibility here, as you can imaging is needed for a modern Model & Hobby Shop today.
Model & Hobby Shops are often the hub for local hobbyists and clubs. Our software includes tools to support these relationships, such as managing member discounts and facilitating fundraising efforts for community organisations.
Special orders are another common requirement in this sector. When a customer requires a specific piece not currently in stock, the system tracks the order from the initial request through to arrival. This ensures that staff are alerted immediately when the item is ready for collection, enhancing the customer experience.
We integrate with other software to help you save time and reduce mistakes: Xero, Shopify, Big Commerce, WooCommerce, Magento, Tyro, Linkly Cloud, Smart Pay, ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Anthropic.
Selling online is a breeze.
