			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Repeat business is the key to a profitable long standing hospitality  business. Even in areas with high tourism traffic, if you can somehow  get a tourist to come back even once more before they leave the area you  then have doubled your sales from that specific person. Find the right  tools to do this effectively and you’ve got yourself a popular hub of a  venue.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-1251" href="http://www.vectron.com.au/blog/loyalty-marketing/pos-system-meets-marketing-guru/attachment/pos_loyalty_big"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1251" title="POS_loyalty_big" src="http://www.vectron.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/POS_loyalty_big.jpg" alt="" width="255" height="255" /></a>Vectron realised how important it is for a hospitality business to  promote loyalty and run promotions and bundled it with our  <a href="http://www.vectron.com.au/pos-for-bars-nightclubs.php">Restaurant-Bar-Club POS</a> system. The loyalty module includes a voucher tool  which seamlessly links with Point of Sale and Stock Control operations.</p>
<p>Restaurants, bars or pubs can generate a limitless range of promotional vouchers instantly at point of sale. Vouchers can be precisely tied to buying patterns or promotion plans.  Product sales, customer spend, memberships or any other criteria can all  be triggers for voucher issue.</p>
<p>&#8220;Previously our ability to<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WoRqht-FYc0"> track  discounts</a> was a major issue; we did not know how much to give back to  members. With Vectron, it&#8217;s easy for staff to use the till and enter the  appropriate discounts in. We have swipe cards for all our members.”<br />
– <a href="http://www.vectron.com.au/case-study-hoppers.php">Jay Mitchell</a>, General Manager at Hoppers Club.</p>
<p>Totally trackable via the POS system, a barcode or a number can be  included on the voucher along with the optional expiry date and unused  or expired vouchers or points are also reported.</p>
<p>&#8220;The member’s card is  easily swiped to instantly show their name, account number and the  points they have received on purchase. “<br />
- Jodie, Manager at Hoppers Club.</p>
<p>What’s more you can inform your patrons of weekly specials, 2 for 1  deals or even send them birthday or anniversary deals though our fully  integrated customer database, loyalty tool kit and messaging system. And all this value added functionality comes built in with our Restaurant-Bar-Club POS at no extra third party costs.</p>
<p>With flexible payment options, efficient installations, training and  ongoing support, upgrading to Vectron is just a phone call away. Speak to  one of our friendly staff on 1300 530 509 and ask for the Vectron POS Marketing Advantage or write to <a href="http://sales@vectron.com.au/" target="_blank">sales@vectron.com.au</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.vectron.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/CCTV1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1236" title="CCTV" src="http://www.vectron.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/CCTV1.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="354" /></a></p>
<p>Our latest CCTV technology offers hospitality venues the highest level of security with the 360 degree view IP dome cameras and the dual lens night vision system.</p>
<p><strong>Less cameras, &#8216;boxes&#8217; and cables, more coverage and functionality:</strong><br />
The ultra compact and weatherproof IP dome with a panorama function effectively replaces several standard CCTV systems, cutting down overall camera need by about 20%. With inbuilt PC and &#8216;smarts&#8217;, each camera manages all data and image processing, replacing the DVR entirely. Only one CAT5 cable or wires connection is needed, making the system much easier and quicker to install.</p>
<p><strong>Double the efficiency</strong></p>
<p>The intelligent dual lens camera with no moving parts has two separate image sensors — brilliant colour for the day and extremely light sensitive black/white sensor for the night to ensure that no activity is left unmonitored. The continuous zoom, pan and tilt records uninterrupted HiRes video replacing up to 6 ordinary cameras.</p>
<p>Once linked to the hotel or pub&#8217;s POS system, till images are matched with POS transactional data in real time. Automated reporting can deliver alerts directly to the manager&#8217;s PC or mobile. Time and date stamped images prove irrefutable proof for incidents and any insurance claims. Completely scalable, Vectron can quote on installations for both, large and small venues. Call us for more information or request a quote on 1300 513 386<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A couple of weeks back, our newest team member James was doing a POS demo for a popular bar in Melbourne.</p>
<p>He started with all the base features the system is founded upon; so there was the brilliantly lit touch screen with large keys for easy entering of orders, the intuitive screen flows for quick navigation, graphical table layouts to keep track of each table, unique staff logins, automatic transmission of orders to the kitchen (display or printer) and the very powerful reporting. More or less all the features which any bar or restaurant owner today already knows.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.vectron.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/POS_alerts.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1220" title="POS_alerts" src="http://www.vectron.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/POS_alerts.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="202" /></a>Things were about to get interesting though, once James dived in to the nitty-gritty of reporting with one simple question: <strong><br />
What if your POS system didn’t just monitor activity of staff and stock for you, but also actively informed you of any important detail or incident, at the moment it happens? </strong></p>
<p>Vectron’s expert Messaging and Memos module lets you not only set up customized alerts via email or sms; it also allows you to choose which information is sent to whom. It can send any variance or no sale alert to the manager on duty, who can quickly look in to the matter or let you him know when the cash register reaches its limit. If your venue stocks a new or exclusive and you wish to track its performance, the system can also keep you informed every time a sale takes place. So, you can basically keep up to date with the venue’s operation while at home, on vacation or any other place. And this handy functionality is an in built feature of our Restaurant-Bar-Hotel POS system.</p>
<p>Speak to James on 1300 513 386 or email <a href="mailto:sales@vectron.com.au">sales@vectron.com.au</a> to find out more about Messages and Memos and our other value added modules which can make your business operations much more efficient and give you a better control of your venue.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Carmel’s Bar &amp; Grill, a unique restaurant in the picturesque McLaren Vale SA, presents an ever changing menu focusing on flavours to compliment their extensive wine selection. With a philosophy centered on quality, zest and freshness and a commitment to utilize the best local produce, it is hardly a surprise that Carmel’s is swarmed with cheerful patrons for lunch, dinner and all things in between 7 days a week.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.vectron.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/Carmel.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1213" title="Carmel" src="http://www.vectron.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/Carmel.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="202" /></a>In order to help staff keep up their standard of service at all times, owner Carmel Sullivan needed to move to a POS system that was worked hard, yet wasn’t hard to work on.</p>
<p><em>“The previous system was so un-user friendly; it was not easy to change pricing, add items, change items and archive items. But with Vectron, all this can be done very quickly and we have trained new staff to use it in less than 15 minutes.” –</em> Carmel Sullivan, Owner of Carmel’s Bar &amp; Grill.</p>
<p>State of the art touch screens and intuitive screen flows and graphical table layouts helped speed up day to day transactions and other operational tasks, which instantly boost staff productivity.<br />
<em>“Changing prices, descriptions, where an item prints and the number of copies is all made easy with this system. Orders are directly sent to the kitchen as soon as they are entered on the system.”</em></p>
<p>Vectron’s restaurant POS has an extensive back office in place, which can do as much or as little as your venue requires. Reports can be automated and customized to a format most suitable for you. Archived data helps look up past sales and other product information.</p>
<p><em>“Out of all the reporting options, we use the 7 day, till balance and product sales reports. History kept on the system is also good for tracking any operator transaction errors or<br />
incorrect charges.”</em></p>
<p>Vectron ‘s Adelaide office offers end to end installation process with system set up, training and ongoing support. With a wide choice of hardware and software under one roof, solutions can be tailored to suit each venue’s operational requirements and budgets.</p>
<p><em>“Vectron’s support is very reliable. All queries, however minor, have always been answered by Param or Lissa within 24 hours.” Said Carmel.</em></p>
<p>Call Lissa or Param on 08 8410 7333 or write to <a href="mailto:sales@vectron.com.au">sales@vectron.com.au</a> to give your restaurant, bar or café the POS-itive edge it deserves.</p>

With a much wider coverage with and an inbuilt PC, a single camera performs more than a number of standard cameras reducing your over all camera requirement by at least 20%. <a href="http://www.vectron.com.au/blog/pos-linked-security-systems/pos-linked-wide-angle-cctv-with-brains">Read more...</a>]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.vectron.com.au"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1176" title="Vectron CCTV" src="http://www.vectron.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/eye-300x202.jpg" alt="" width="209" height="102" />Vectron</a>’s bringing you a surveillance technology which combines eyes and brain power. Our advanced 360 degree CCTV system divides a room into a multiple location view and captures activity in the middle of the room, doorway, behind the bar and till area.</p>
<p>What does this new innovation mean for venue owners?</p>
<p><strong>More cost effective<br />
</strong>As a single camera provides much wider coverage, this wide angled mega pixel technology can cut down your over all camera requirement by as much as 20%. <strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Fewer storage devices</strong> – An inbuilt PC analyses all data within the camera itself and multiple cameras can simultaneously store high-resolution HDTV video with sound on one compact networked storage device, replacing the DVR entirely.</p>
<p><strong>Lesser cables</strong> &#8211; A single CAT5 cable transmits data and supplies power (POE) making set up easier and tidier.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.vectron.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/footage.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1177" title="CCTV wide coverage" src="http://www.vectron.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/footage.jpg" alt="" width="285" height="216" /></a>The small non obtrusive cameras can cover wide areas giving owners a bird’s eye view of their business Full internet access means footage and data can be seen from the office, at home or even on holiday.<br />
Strong analytics let owners see refunds, no- sales under-rings and other variances.  Reports can be automated for daily delivery or variance alerts can be sent via sms or email straight to managers. Time and date stamped images are also suitable for any insurance claims.</p>
<p>Empowered with the combined features of <a href="http://www.vectron.com.au/pos-for-pubs.php">POS</a> and surveillance systems, venue owners can now regain complete control of their business. Due to their easy scalability and high performance, this advanced camera system is suitable both for large venues like nightclubs, multi level bars, sports clubs and smaller cafes and restaurants.</p>

<p>Contemporary styled with up-to the-minute stainless steel interiors and a dazzling coffee machine, a steady stream of regulars and seaside visitors kept staff on their toes.</p>
<p>Moving recently to their beach location, the owner needed to upgrade to a more modern, fast POS system. After reviewing several systems, Vectron’s café/restaurant  solution was chosen.</p>
<p><em>“We chose </em><em>Vectron as Lissa was so nice when she popped in at our previous store, not pushy like other sales personnel.  I liked  this system as it suited our needs without the great expense like other systems”.</em>Adrianne, Owner, Bakers Edge.</p>
<p>With brilliantly lit, concisely laid out touchscreens, orders for all the popular products can be processed in just a few steps. Highly intuitive, the screens are easy to learn and new staff can be up and running quickly with minimal training.</p>
<p><em>“Life so much easier in many ways from till balancing, clear and consistent coffee orders, no over or under charging of products. Even the most IT illiterate staff have found the system so user friendly”.</em></p>
<p>With quick service features like combo meals and  order confirmation boards, everyday order processing tasks are fast and error free.</p>
<p>Price and menu changes, special offers and split bills can be set up in an instant. Standard reports give real time visibility of reporting for current day, week etc. Best sellers, slow sellers, trends and variances are also easy to analyse.</p>
<p><em>“ Daily operations much more efficient. 1/2 hourly reports and day financials as we run through the day. Especially the breakdowns of areas where money allocations on daily z has been useful to see how many coffees we sold compared to cold drinks.  Staff wouldn’t know what to do now without the system&#8230;nor would I!</em></p>
<p>Vectron’s Adelaide office offers full POS sales and support throughout South Australia. With a wide choice of systems, solutions can be tailored to exactly match each venue’s operational footprint and budgetary needs.</p>
<p><em>“Excellent! All so nice and friendly. For a small business the after sales support is imperative. Vectron has excelled in this area and I would not hesitate to recommend these systems to similar businesses. Not only are they excellent but they are affordable and able to suit all budgets for small businesses” Concludes Adrianne.</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.vectron.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/zucca.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1154" title="zucca" src="http://www.vectron.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/zucca.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="202" /></a>Zucca Greek Mezze is an award winning restaurant situated at the heart of Glenelg on Holdfast Shore. Peter, Dave and Adam &#8211; three of Adelaide’s best renowned chefs have joined forces to form this spectacular Greek culinary experience, with the added beauty of the Marina. Locally renowned for quality Greek cuisine, the Mezze brand is also popular on television across Australia with Adam a regular part of Ready Steady Cook.</p>
<p>With a year round busy scene, the venue needed to upgrade to a more up to date and easy to use <a href="http://www.vectron.com.au/vectron-products-pos-systems.php">POS system</a>. After thorough research of various POS providers, Vectron was selected for their overall system completeness and up-to-the-minute loyalty technology.</p>
<p><em>“We researched our POS options and found that Vectron gave us by far the best mix of features, ease of use and value for money”.  Peter De Marco, Owner, Zucca</em></p>
<p>Six of Vectron’s latest POS terminals were installed throughout the venue along with back office reporting and loyalty.</p>
<p>Easy to learn, staff found it simple to adapt to the new system and with minimal training. Graphical touch screens and intuitive screen layouts helped in speeding up orders.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.vectron.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/10_FloorPlan.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1155" title="10_FloorPlan" src="http://www.vectron.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/10_FloorPlan-300x221.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="221" /></a>With the help of table layouts and integrated kitchen printing, orders were wirelessly sent to the kitchen and wait staff could monitor exactly where each customer was at with their meal and billing. Table plans also showed how long tables have been occupied and which tables are free.</p>
<p>“Vectron system is working beautifully. The floor staff finds it very easy to use. “</p>
<p>Zucca was mainly interested in Vectron’s swipe card loyalty technology to launch a reward scheme, where customers would use branded swipe cards to accumulate points throughout the venue. The powerful promotions engine is tied to the customer database for easy setup of birthday rewards, point programs, two for one deals etc. This is a great tool to study customer purchase patterns and profiles and set the right reward levels accordingly.</p>
<p><em>“Customers like our loyalty scheme; it’s easy for them to use and we can quickly run reports on usage levels and profile information”. </em></p>
<p>The complete <a href="http://www.vectron.com.au/pos-for-groups-multisites.php">back office</a> reporting suite lets Zucca track sales, stock, trends, peak and slow times.</p>
<p><em>“The back of house is very detailed and easy to use, the reporting is very extensive. The weekly reporting breaks down into any reporting we need. Within minutes we know how we are doing, any loopholes and what we need to fix up”. </em></p>
<p>Vectron’s Adelaide based office offers full sales and support for venues throughout South Australia.</p>
<p><em>“The level of support and guidance we have received has been great. I plan to use Vectron at a new CBD venture later this year”.</em></p>
