Appliance store operations

The operating system for an appliance store.

Every box on the floor has its own label. Every sale knows which box it is. Receiving, purchasing, deliveries and the register are one system, and it fits in the pocket of whoever is standing in front of the customer.

What's inside

Six things a store does every day, built as one.

Sales and invoices

A sale in three steps on a phone: scan the unit, pick the delivery day, take the signature. The address fills in as it is typed, with the road distance and the fee it lands in.

Inventory by the unit

Every unit carries its own QR label, printed at the counter. Scan it to sell it, move it, note damage or hold it for a customer.

Receiving from a photo

Photograph the packing slip. The vendor, the purchase order and every line fill themselves in; models the catalog has never seen are added on the way.

Purchase orders

Start from the vendor’s quote — a photo is enough — or from a blank page. Tie a line to a customer’s order and the unit reserves itself for them on arrival.

Deliveries

Book a day, a time and a crew, with add-ons like install and haul-away priced up front. Drivers get their own route screen and sign at the door.

The Clover register

Issued invoices appear on the register with the customer attached. Payments come back on their own and land on the invoice.

How a day goes

From the truck at the back door to the truck at the customer's.

  1. Step 1

    Receive

    Photograph the paperwork, scan the cartons, print a label for each one.

  2. Step 2

    Stock

    Each unit has a location and a serial. The floor knows what it has without walking it.

  3. Step 3

    Sell

    Scan the unit the customer is standing next to. The order, the invoice and the register follow.

  4. Step 4

    Deliver

    Booked on the board, loaded, signed for at the door. The unit is sold the moment it is paid.

Built for the counter

Made for a phone first, because that is where the store is.

Nobody sits at a desk on a Saturday. Every screen is one column, every list is one row per thing, and the camera does the typing: paperwork, barcodes, rating plates and vendor cards are read, not keyed in.

  • Roles that match the store

    Owner, manager, sales, warehouse and driver each see what their day needs and nothing that is not theirs.

  • A shared tablet at the counter

    Register a device once; the people on it sign in with a PIN, so a sale is always someone’s.

  • Vendors as a working list

    Who to call, what is on order with them, when the last shipment came — and a new vendor from a photo of their card.

  • Costs stay with the people who should see them

    Cost, margin and reports are owner and manager screens; the floor sees prices.

Pricing

One price, everything in it.

No per-module pricing, no charge per register, no setup fee. Start on the plan that fits the store and change it whenever.
