Holidays Are Hard.
Let’s face it. Holidays come with lots of customers, lots of extra product and extra promotions. Managing inventory can get a little more hectic around the holidays and sometimes, it’s just hard to keep up with.
mPower Beverage is designed with you, the Liquor Store Owner/Manager/Employee, in mind. We know running a business is tough, and we have the solution that will help you get through the holidays, and year-round, more smoothly.
How can mPower help your busy days run smooth?
A Modern, Easy to use, POS Interface.

By utilizing an easy to use interface, your employees can help customers find product and check them out without any hassle.

Total Inventory Control
As mentioned earlier, managing inventory is a huge part of owning a liquor store. mPower gives you total control of your inventory, as well as complete visibility. You can track various categories for your items such as country, region, appellation, and more. With purchase orders, you can create one order that automatically creates separate orders for each vendor. When receiving orders, you can do quick receive or edit the receiving quantities before accepting them into inventory. You can also run a multitude of reports such as daily sales summary and comparison reports. If you wish to see your reports in graph format, you can easily hit the analyze button and the system will transform the data into a graph.

Automated Ordering
mPower has many need-to-order reports to help the purchase decision process. These reports allow you to see what you may need to order based on case deal offers, minimums/maximums, day supply on hand, and more. To utilize these reports, you will run the report, edit it as needed, and send to purchase request. The purchase order will then be created for all need-to-order items.

Customer Management & Promotions
Managing your customers and promotions has never been easier than with mPower. For your customer management you can track their address, phone number, email and more. You can see their purchase history, track their rewards points, and manage the customer groups they are a member of. With promotions, you can apply a simple discount (% or $ amount), mix and match, and price point. You can apply the promotions based on specified days or times, have them apply to specified items or merchandise levels, and apply them to specified customer groups.

Employee Roles & Rights
Manage what your employees can see, and do, on both the Back Office and Point of Sale. Do you want your managers to have access to create purchase orders but not see certain reports? Do you not want your cashiers to be allowed to give manual discounts? Manage all of this and more, giving yourself a peace of mind. Additionally, create employee templates for easily adding new season employees. Create a template with rights you want them to have and apply it to any applicable employee. You can also assign your employees a username and password to login on the point of sale to easily track and manager their hours worked.
Gift Baskets
During the holidays, you may want to put together a gift basket of various items you carry in the store. mPower Beverage has a built-in tool, called “maintain kits,” that allows you to create gift baskets and manage that inventory that is used. You can add as many, or as little, items as you wish to the basket and price it out when finished. The tool is easy to use, and you may also print off a barcode for the item for a seamless checkout at the register.
