Locally made POS software is more suited to local retail needs

POS software made offshore is less likely to serve local retail business needs in Australian and New Zealand. And, for sure, local small business retailers in Australian and New Zealand have needs unique to their situation.

How’s a developer in India, Russia, Indonesia or Bulgaria going to understand and serve local retail needs. It’s unlikely they will since they are more likely developing software for the world market.

Oooh, the world market. It feels grand and something to lean into. In reality, the world market is generic, safe, average.

Local retail serves the local community. It is unique, local. It has local language and supports sharing local insights, such as product care information relevant to locals

If you look at your needs as a local retailer and then at software that may suit you, we are sure that you will find locally made and supported POS software more financially beneficial for your business than something made offshore, far away from your business and likely not tuned to the local needs of your shop.

Local software developers have an intimate understanding of market nuances. Locally developed POS software is purpose-built to address these.

Locally based software companies have an ability to provide more responsive support and quicker updates to address local market shifts, regulatory changes, or customer feedback.

When you choose a POS software, you are choosing a partner for your business, a partner for your business. The choice is It’s about a business that understands your business and its needs and the way you do business.

By supporting a locally based software company, you’re investing in a partnership that will grow with your business and the local economy. So, before you commit to a generic, one-size-fits-all solution, take a moment to consider how a truly local software can empower your shop to thrive.

Local retail businesses like yours are unlikely to be generic, so why go with generic software.

Take your time. Understand what matters to you. Look around. Don’t be pressured. Consider whether your localness matters to the future of your business.

Working mum Clare found a lifeline in the convenience of online ordering. She was able to get awesome, fun birthday gifts for her twins, beautifully wrapped and ready for collection on her way home from work. The little surprise her local toy shop included was the cherry on top.

And we can’t forget Mick. He loves the simple text message that lets him know the next release in his collection is ready for pick-up, and he appreciates the rewards that recognise his loyalty as a dedicated collector.

Every day, local independent toy shops across Australia are creating these moments for customers like Frank, Kath, Clare, and Mick. This level of personal, local service is what sets them apart. To deliver it, specialist indie toy businesses need specialist software that understands and serves these unique needs.

What is scanned based trading and how does it help retailers, especially small business retailers?

June 23, 2025
2 Min read

Scanned based trading in retail is where a supplier supplies product to a shop based on sales of the product in the shop. The POS software in the retail shop feeds sales to the supplier and the supplier triggers a top-up order based on settings agreed with the retailer.

Scanned based trading is a time saver for retailers. This is useful in today’s retail settings where retailers are time-poor.

With popular items being out of stock too often, scanned based trading can help retailers to not be out of stock of items they need.

Our Tower Systems POS software has the data feed necessary to supply suppliers with sales per store, thereby feeding into suppliers ready themselves to engage in scanned based trading with local small business retailers.

In some scanned based trading models, retailers only pay for inventory they sell.

  • Reduced inventory costs: Retailers don’t have to tie up capital in inventory that might not sell.
  • Lower financial risk: They are not stuck with unsold or expired products.
  • Increased product variety: Retailers can experiment with new products without significant upfront investment.
  • Reduced shrink (loss of inventory): While the exact split of shrink liability is negotiated, SBT can reduce losses from operational errors as suppliers have more incentive to manage their inventory effectively.
  • Improved cash flow: Payments are made only when sales occur.

These are just some of the benefits that POS software facilitates scanned based trading has delivered from our experiences in retail.

While the benefits for retailers are clear, scan-based trading offers significant advantages to suppliers, fostering a closer and more aligned relationship.

Suppliers gain real-time visibility into sales data, enabling more accurate forecasting, optimised production, and efficient inventory management. This direct insight allows them to better understand consumer demand and tailor their offerings accordingly, ultimately leading to increased sales and reduced waste from overproduction.

By taking on the inventory risk, suppliers often secure broader distribution channels as retailers become more willing to stock a wider variety of their products, even new or niche items. This collaborative approach, where both parties benefit from shared data and aligned incentives, transforms the traditional buyer-seller dynamic into a more strategic partnership focused on mutual growth and efficiency.

Retailers love scanned based trading because of less out of stocks, increased revenue and time saves.

Suppliers love scanned based trading because of increased sales and more value from retailer relationships.

While plenty preach you to pursue scale, staying small may be more profitable

June 6, 2025
3 Min read

Everywhere you look, the message for small business owners is the same: bigger is better.  Business gurus applaud “scalable” and “replicable” models. Influencers celebrate follower milestones and encourage everyone to join the race for numbers.

It’s as if size is the only yardstick of success.

It’s not.

Sure there are the headline stories of small business owners who have made it big. The thing is, for each one of those there are hundreds, thousands, who did not make it, and not for lack of trying.

Who benefits most when you chase this endless pursuit of “more”? Often, it’s the very people telling you to do it – consultants, gurus, and influencers who profit from your participation in the game. Their goals might not align with yours, and their interests might be served far more than your own.

This pressure to chase size feels a lot like the relentless societal push to be slim, have perfect white teeth, or a full head of hair. It’s as if being content with what you have simply isn’t an option.

But what if the true goal isn’t endless expansion, but happiness? Happiness for you, the business owner; happiness for those who rely on your business for their income; and happiness for your customers.

A profitable small business can often generate more money for its owners than a business relentlessly pursuing scale, especially if that pursuit involves significant financial risk. Think about the emotional toll of taking on a hefty loan to fund growth. Compare that to the peace of mind that comes with a small, debt-free, self-sustaining business. It’s a different kind of wealth, one measured in peace of mind rather than balance sheet zeroes.

In our experience, small businesses are inherently more nimble, innovative, and efficient than their larger counterparts. They’re often more profitable too.We suspect this is because in a small business, everything matters, and nothing goes unnoticed. Inefficiency simply can’t hide. In big businesses, it can easily get lost in the noise.

Today, technology makes it easier than ever for us to achieve more with less in our small businesses, and with less risk.

Another significant benefit of being small is easy differentiation. Your people, their knowledge, and their personal approach to transacting business are your unique selling points. In a big business, this kind of personalisation is often systemised into something average and, ultimately, lost.

If you genuinely value your independence and understand the power of differentiation through personal service, you’re likely to find more happiness and fulfillment running a small to mid-size business than perpetually chasing scale.

So, don’t let anyone dictate your path or your definition of success. Reach your own conclusion about what’s truly right for you and your business.

Here at Tower Systems we serve local small business retailers, independent retailers. We made that decision long ago. It keeps us close to our customers, focussed on their needs and not beholden to one huge customer. Local matters to local communities. As cliche as that sounds, it’s what we believe. We are grateful to serve local small business retailers.

We are grateful for Retail Fest 2025

We enjoyed our time at Retail fest on the Gold Coast this week. We got to meet colleagues in the POS software space, be introduced to some new retailer prospects, talk with the payments specialists at Tyro and learn from the retail specialists at Retail Fest. It was an inspiring, engaging and relaxing few days, a perfect trade show we think.

A significant emphasis at Retail Fest on the Gold Coast this week was placed on leveraging AI to automate, optimise, and scale retail businesses. This includes using AI for demand forecasting, inventory planning, streamlining support, and enhancing customer experiences. The thing is, Tower Systems has already delivered embedded AI tools for its small business retail customers, tools that are already helping deliver cost savings, revenue growth and improved profit experiences.

AI is here for local small business retailers in the Tower Systems POS software.

Our advice to retailers looking for AI tools to help serve their business goals – make sure that the AI tools are real and not other tech wrapped to look like AI. make sure, too, that the AI tools are easily accessible within your existing tech desk. Going outside may have a cost and an operational speed-bump that may not serve your needs.

While some at Retail Fest spoke about scale, here at Tower Systems we serve local small business retailers for whom scale is usually not top of mind. We know of many instances where a successful local small retail; business delivers more profitability than a scaled business as the scaled business is often built to perpetually scale whereas the stable local small retail; business is built for profit.

Retail Fest prides itself on being a “community-driven event,” providing extensive networking opportunities to connect with peers, industry leaders, mentors, and potential partners. We experienced this first-hand, for which we are sincerely grateful.

This focus on community and practical application aligns with our Tower Systems philosophy. We believe that the true power of AI for small businesses lies not in abstract “scale” but in tangible, embedded tools that deliver real-world benefits. Our presence and experience at Retail Fest reinforced our commitment to providing accessible, effective AI solutions directly within our existing POS software.

For many local retailers, the goal isn’t just about getting bigger, but about getting better – more efficient, more profitable, and more connected to their customers. That’s why our AI development continues to prioritise the specific needs of independent retailers, ensuring they can harness the power of artificial intelligence to thrive in an increasingly competitive market, all while maintaining the community focus that makes their businesses unique.

We released our first POS software embedded AI tools in mmid 2022 with our most significant Artificial Intelligence advances released earlier in 2025.

I am shocked at what I can get done in a day now, one retailer told us. This is a game-changer for my shop, another said. I am discovering opportunities I’d have missed previously, another said. I love it, a retailer in their mid seventies said.

The Artificial Intelligence tools now embedded in ur Tower Systems POS software are practical and success outcome focussed for our local small business retail customers. Using them is like choosing the pen you wish to write with, they are everyday tools designed to save time and to get you to the best possible decision for your business.

Leveraging the very latest LLMs from OpenAI and Google, the AI tools in our POS software provide our retailers with options hitherto unavailable.

Our AI POS software empowers retailers to optimise their online presence by generating compelling product names and Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) ready descriptions. They simplify administrative tasks by effortlessly converting PDF supplier invoices into import-ready electronic formats. Retailers can also leverage AI for price comparison, identifying opportunities to improve profitability and stay competitive.

This is work they had to do twice a month, delivering a saving a at least six man-hours a money. This is senior staff work that costs $38.00 an hour. The business is saving $228.00 a month or $2,736.00 a year from this one Artificial Intelligence facility alone. That’s real money in the bank for the retailer.

The core advantages of our AI tools are time savings, improved decision quality, and faster decision-making. We are committed to ongoing research and development, with exciting enhancements on the horizon.

Small business retail advice: specialty software matters to specialty retailers

April 28, 2025
3 Min read
S

One thing to love about local small retail businesses is their focus on being specialists, being focussed on a product or service niche. People are more likely to trust a specialty retailer for ethic rout, their uniqueness, their specialisation.

It stands to reason that the needs of specialty retailers are best met by software designed for eerie area of expertise.

Jewellers benefit from software designed for jewellers. Big shop businesses benefit from software made for bike shops. Bookshops benefit from software made for bookshops. Produce businesses benefit from software made for produce businesses. Garden centres benefit from software made for garden centres.

You can see where we are going with this.

If you want plants for your local garden a local garden centre will be more helpful than a general retail shop that sells all manner of things.

We understand and appreciate the value of the specialist.

The same is true of software.

Anyone can say they have software for this or that type of business. Only some software companies actually make software for some specialty retail channels. Take jewellers. Right now, at the time of writing this post, Tower Systems is the only company developing software in Australia for Aussie jewellers. And, yes, Aussie jewellers have unique needs, needs serves by our specialty jeweller POS software.

Specialist retail software made for your type of business is more likely to help more in the running of your business, assisting productivity and nurturing profitability.

Generic software can only go so far. It is certainly unlikely to help you shine a light on the specialty nature of your business, what makes you unique.

If being a specialty retailer matters to you, taker a moment to consider software made for your type of business.

This laser focus on specific industries allows Tower Systems to build in features and functionalities that directly address the unique challenges and opportunities within each of the retail channels we serve. For instance, a point-of-sale system designed for a jeweller might include features for managing valuations, custom orders, and intricate inventory tracking of precious metals and gemstones – functionalities that would be irrelevant and cumbersome in software designed for a bookstore. By catering to these niche requirements, specialist software empowers small retail businesses to operate more efficiently, serve their customers better, and ultimately leverage their unique expertise for greater success.

If you are a specialty retailer, we’d love to see if we can serve your needs.

Shoptalk is a conference for retailers about retailing, a place to discover what’s on the mind of retailers large and small. I attended conference sessions, one-on-one meetings organised by Shoptalk and a round table with 7 retailers talking tech.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) was the hot topic on stage and on the trade show floor.

From a retailer perspective, Shoptalk 2025 highlighted that rapid extensive change is here, standing still is not an option. Without explicitly saying it, the suppliers there, supported by so many speakers, urged change in retail from the ground up.

It is in this moment where we see opportunity for small business retail, and opportunity for us to encourage this.

Watching the revolution from the sidelines is not where you want to be.

In the context of the Tower verticals, the flexibility of our software helps retailers who want to play outside what has been traditional for their type of business. We are setup for helping them break through barriers.

Given the money being spent by tech businesses of the AI pitch, companies without such a pitch may find it challenging.

The benefits of the Best POS Software for any retail business will be more beneficial than any price difference

March 3, 2025
4 Min read
T

There’s POS software, and then there’s the right POS software for your business. The difference between the two can be huge.

Writing POS software is easy. Writing POS software that delivers on specialty retail needs is more complex.

It’s not about price you pay for the software, it’s about the commercial benefits to your business.

Even though plenty of companies want you to think it is about price of the software. They want you to believe it’s all about price because that’s how they compete. Competing on price is easy – and lazy – as any retailer knows.

People who buy based on price aren’t loyal. And loyalty matters when it comes to POS software.

  • You want your POS software company to invest in their software – the software you’re using.
  • You want them to focus on serving you, not chasing customers who only want the cheapest option.
  • You want more from the software for your business than just a quick dopamine hit from a low price.

It’s not about price because that’s the least of the costs of POS software.

The best POS software saves you time. It helps you make better decisions. It helps you stand out from the competition and attract loyal customers. It helps you nurture better employees and reduce your stress levels. Ultimately, the best POS software is about money because of all these things. It will help you run a more enjoyable and valuable retail business.

Take your time. Make the right decision.

Too often, POS software companies pressure small business retailers into making a quick decision. They chase sales and apply unnecessary pressure. Don’t succumb to this. Make the decision you feel best about, when you’re ready.

Get this right, and you can tap into some awesome benefits from the right POS software for your retail business. Here are some of the benefits we offer retailers we partner with:

  • Save time with electronic invoices from suppliers.
  • Offer personal customer service by tracking dates that are important to your customers.
  • Use tags to get a fresh perspective on stock performance.
  • Leverage your knowledge. If you believe your expertise is a differentiator, offer it through structured opportunities in the software.
  • Easily handle special customer orders. Bring product in for a specific customer and have them notified automatically by email or text when the goods arrive.
  • Build business-differentiating loyalty. Stand out from the crowd and have customers coming back to you for this. We’re told it’s a game-changer.
  • Maximise the basket with easy-to-use one-time shopper loyalty tools.
  • Trade and club pricing profiles. Set pricing rules based on customer type.
  • Leverage your local community with an awesome two-way benefits package.
  • Make money from pre-orders. Easily pre-sell a delivery so that when the stock arrives, you can manage distribution and billing efficiently.
  • Differentiate with informative receipts. These can include product care, use and safety information based on what customers buy.
  • Differentiate with bundles. Selling items bundled together makes price comparison difficult.
  • Track who sold what.
  • Say goodbye to LayBy (if you want) with buy now, pay later options.
  • Market to customers based on past purchases.
  • Save time by importing electronic invoices.
  • Sell more with a direct connection to buy now, pay later services.
  • Cut mistakes with integrated EFTPOS.
  • Cut accounting and bookkeeping fees with integration to Xero and others.
  • Easily sell online with a direct link to Shopify, Magento or WooCommerce from your POS software.

These are tangible deliverables, and the list is incomplete. Using our POS software, you can expect even more benefits than these.

Remember: Choosing the right POS software is an investment in your business’s future. Take your time, research your options, and select the system that best meets your needs and supports your growth.

How POS software embedded AI tools from Tower Systems help small business retailers

January 23, 2025

Back in mid 2022, Tower Systems released the first embedded AI tools in its POS software that serves local small business retailers. In the time since, we have further enhanced our embedded AI tools facilities, expanding the assistances delivered to our indie retailer customer base.

Being an early-adopter in the AI within POS software space has helped it win new customers. More important that this is the help we have delivered to our POS software customers.

The AI tools embedded in our POS software, which our customers can choose to use or not, focus on saving time, improving the speed and quality of decision making, revealing hitherto unknown insights about the business and increasing sales.

Making these POS software AI tools available for small business retailers positioned Tower Systems well back in 2022, a position maintained as we have delivered more AI assist tools within the software and without additional cost tour customers.

From auto generation of product descriptions to auto population of product data and images to discovering decisions that can be taken that will absolutely make more money for the business – these AI tools in the Tower Systems POS software have tangible commercial value.

One retailer told us that they have reduced allocated time for some tasks by 12 hours a month thanks to the tools. Another retailer told us that they can track thousands of dollars of additional revenue directly back to using the AI tool in the POS software.

2025 will see significant enhancements of the AI tools embedded in the Tower Systems POS software with the first of these just a few weeks away. This update, which is already in testing, delivers extraordinary benefits that will help local small business retailers compete beyond what has been possible until now.

Tower Systems has been a pioneer in leveraging the power of AI to empower local small business retailers. By proactively integrating cutting-edge AI capabilities within our POS software, we’ve not only differentiated ourselves in the market but also provided invaluable support to our customers. These AI-driven tools deliver real, measurable results, from increased efficiency and reduced workload to significant revenue growth.

3 ways any local small business retailer can improve their profit

January 7, 2025
3 Min read

Growing a retail business is all about building on success. Each step forward paves the way for the next, creating a snowball effect for your profits. Here are three easy ti implement strategies any small business retailer can implement to achieve this compounding effect.

These are easy strategies. You can remember and use them in many different business decisions you make. We’ve gone with 3 because it’s easy to remember them and use them.

1. Attract New Customers: go beyond your usual base

It’s fantastic to have returning customers, but relying solely on them limits your growth. Every single day, dedicate some effort to attracting fresh faces. Here are some ideas to get you started:

  • Create eye-catching window displays. Think unique, vibrant, and relevant to your products. You want people to stop when they notice the window from the corner of their eye.
  • Be active on social media. Share engaging posts, stories, and promotions that resonate with your target audience. Be personal. Give of yourself.
  • Partner with local community groups. Sponsor events, offer discounts to members, and build connections within the community. Be local.
  • Support local club member fundraisers. This not only helps a good cause, but gets your brand in front of a new group of potential customers.

2. Maximise Your Gross Profit Percentage: be smart about buying and pricing

The price you pay for your products and how you price them directly impacts your profit margin. Here’s a two-pronged approach:

  • Negotiate the best deals possible with your suppliers. Every cent saved on your end translates to more profit in your pocket.
  • Focus on offering value and price accordingly. Don’t simply race to the bottom by constantly undercutting competitors. Highlight the benefits and unique selling points of your products and price them fairly. Add value in your service and price products accordingly. If people shop with you because you are convenient, price that in when you can.

3. Encourage Customers to Spend More: the art of the “bigger basket”

Strategic product placement can significantly increase the average amount customers spend per visit. Consider these tactics:

  • Place impulse buys near counters and high-traffic areas. Small, attractive items like phone cases, chocolates, or accessories can easily be added to a customer’s final purchase.
  • Learn from past buying patterns. Analyse what people tend to buy together and use this data to guide product placement. For example, if socks are frequently bought with shoes, consider positioning them nearby.
  • Utilise loyalty programs strategically. Loyalty programs can encourage repeat business and incentivise higher spending. Make sure your loyalty program is easily understood and quick for shoppers to engage with.

Tower Systems: your partner in profitable retail

At Tower Systems, our Australian-made POS software can help you implement these strategies and more. We’re not your average POS company – we serve local specialty retail, small business retail, independent retail. We are retail experienced and can empathise with local retailers in practical ways.

We understand the unique challenges faced by local Aussie retailers. For over 26 years, we’ve been helping our 3,000+ customers run more successful, enjoyable, and profitable businesses. Beyond our software, we offer ongoing support, data-driven insights, and expert business analysis to keep your retail dreams thriving.

New Year, New Business: Resolutions for small business retailers for 2025

December 27, 2024

As we prepare for the  new year, it’s an ideal time to reflect on your business and set goals for the future. Here are some actionable resolutions to help local small business retailers leverage technology and data to improve your business and make it more profitable:

Data-driven decision making

  • Prioritise data quality: Ensure your business data is accurate and up-to-date. High-quality data is the foundation for informed decision-making. A common attribute of businesses that fail is poor data management.
  • Sales-driven inventory: Use sales data to guide your inventory decisions. Avoid unnecessary stock purchases by analysing past performance and future trends.
  • Remote management: Utilise technology to manage your business remotely. This allows you to spend more time away from the shop floor while staying connected to your operations.

Streamline operations

  • Automate processes: Identify manual tasks that can be automated to save time and reduce errors.
  • Combat theft: Implement security measures and utilise technology to deter and detect theft. Our software can help.
  • Declutter your space: Organise your shop floor based on data-driven insights to optimise layout and improve customer experience.

Delegate and learn

  • Empower your team: Delegate tasks to your team members and use software to streamline workflows.
  • Set SMART Goals: Establish specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound goals to track progress and measure success.
  • Continuous Learning: Dedicate time to learning new features and functionalities of your POS software to maximise its potential. We offer free training resources.

Strengthen supplier relationships

  • Strategic partnerships: Focus on building relationships with suppliers who offer efficient and reliable services.
  • Leverage free resources: Take advantage of free training and support offered by us.
  • Data-driven insights: Use the business insights our POS software serves you.

A shared commitment to success At Tower Systems, we’re more than just a POS software provider. We are committed to helping our customers achieve their business goals. By implementing these resolutions and leveraging the power of our software, you can elevate your retail business to new heights.

We do hope your 2025 is wonderful and profitable. Our software can help and we can help. Together, let’s make your 2025 a terrific year for your business and all who rely on it.

A few months ago, we embarked on a small experiment: building a website for a local suburban Melbourne shop on a tight budget. The goal was to test the waters and see what could be achieved with minimal investment.

Starting with a modest product range, the website quickly began generating sales. In just the past seven weeks, this simple online store has raked in over $18,000 without any additional marketing spend or inventory investment. This new video from us takes you behind the scenes on what we have been able to do through the Hugs and Love website integration with our POS software.

The Hugs and Love website (www.hugsandlove.com.au) is a prime example of how seamlessly integrating Tower Systems POS software with Shopify can streamline online sales and fulfilment processes for local businesses. This powerful combination allows businesses to efficiently manage their inventory, process orders, and fulfill purchases both in-store and online.
