Annual Spend - The Power of a Blog Site and YouTube Channel

I'm often asked just how many businesses and organizations contact me via my blog sites and my YouTube Channel. Since late 2013, I've had around 500 business and organizations contact me representing around 930 retail stores, museums, and restaurants in the united states.

These businesses and organizations have gone on to spend nearly $5 million in point of sale software, hardware, and labor for installation, training and ongoing support.

Not bad for such a basic blog site and YouTube Channel!

Retail Point of Sale Vendor Referrals

A quick note that I am happy to provide referrals to businesses selling and supporting different point of sale systems that you may already be using. All I need to know is the following:

  1. your location (city and state - US only, please)
  2. your business name and contact information
  3. which point of sale system you are using
  4. why the place you bought your point of sale from can not help you
  5. what sort of help you need (tech support/new licenses/upgrade/new hardware/etc)
The reason for # 4 is a safeguard against people who owe a company money attempting to obtain support from someone else.




While I don't know every dealer/partner for every point of sale system, I do maintain a contact list of the partners and dealers that I trust so do visit my contact page for information on how to reach me for this type of information.

Note that this also applies if you are considering a specific point of sale system and want to know who to buy the system from.
