Therefore, if you’re not already using the latest POS systems technologies in your business, here are four (4) data analytics-based reasons you should do something about that right now.

1. POS System Analytics data provides critical insights into your customers’ buying habits

Contemporary POS systems are centralised, which means that if a customer visits multiple shop locations, their data can still be accessed from a central repository regardless.

Since this ensures that a complete buying pattern profile is developed on each customer, the consumer behaviour patterns can be seen as a reliable predictor of future buying behaviour.

2. Better targeting of marketing

Even though Australians love to shop online, research shows that up to 85% of people wanting to purchase a product or service will still end up in physical bricks-and-mortar store to seal the deal.

Since today’s advanced POS systems are able to integrate online and offline data from purchasers, this means that the data can be more effectively for the purpose of precise targeting of marketing materials both online and in-store.

3. Availability of real-time actionable data

Apart from the fact that data is much easier to gather from different terminals in advanced POS systems, the added key benefit is that this happens very quickly, with analytics reports becoming available to you in just a matter of seconds.

This if course is only possible if you are using a state-of-the-art POS system that has built in analytics tools that not only gather data, but collate and present it in a graphical dashboard fashion as well.

4. More rapid identification of and response to fraud

Through faster and increasingly detailed analysis of raw data, fraudulent activity can be quickly monitored, detected and responded to. This has the major benefit of preventing, or at least minimising financial losses that occur due to criminal activity.

In fact, modern POS system technologies are able to tackle malware infiltration as the sophisticated, multi-level attack that it is, ensuring all vulnerabilities such criminal software would exploit closed off tightly.
