The importance of upselling on the bottom line

Upselling is the process by which the salesperson convinces the customer to purchase additional items or services besides the product or that was originally intended to be purchased. Upselling can be found at any profession, from the local car wash, to lawyers and doctors. Even politicians use upselling (“don’t just vote for me, also vote for the party”). The importance of upselling cannot be overstated. It can mean the difference between a successful and a failing business.


So how do you increase upselling? At LivePOS we have developed a number of features to assist retailers in upselling using their POS. One of the best ways is through placing variable pricing on products. Then, one can create a buffer when the product goes above a minimum price, which can be used at bundling other items below their minimum price. For example, say you are selling toys. Toy A costs you, the retailer, $8 and has a minimum retail price of $10 while toy B costs you $10 and has a minimum retail price of $15. Say a customer walks in and wants to purchase toy A, which is the most sought after toy during the holidays. The sticker price on toy A is $20. After some haggling, you agree to sell toy A for $17, and as an added bonus give the customer a deal on toy B for $13. How can you do so? Toy A sells for $17 which is $7 over the minimum price. Hence you created a $7 buffer. This allows you to sell toy B at below the minimum price, using $2 of the buffer you created. This way your total profits are $7 on item A and $3 on item B for a total of $10; consequently, you increased profits by 43% through upselling.

Cloud Computing Point of Sale!

Recently there has been a lot of buzz regarding cloud computing. Companies such as Amazon.com, Google, Microsoft and Apple, with its iCloud solution, have been touting the benefits of cloud computing. Websites such as YouTube and Facebook have been built around cloud computing. At LivePOS, we have been long advocates of cloud computing. In fact ten years ago, we were one of the first companies to operate in the cloud.

In the future, we can expect cloud computing to become more pivotal in our daily life. As the wireless internet infrastructure continues to improve and more people use smartphones and iPads instead of PCs, the need for cloud computing will continue to grow. Cloud computing will improve our daily life by making a seamless transition from one device to another and ensuring all of our data is secure. LivePOS will continue to strive to be a the forefront of the Cloud Computing wave.
