| Each boutique is equipped
with the latest Chip and PIN-compliant, touch-screen tills
from J2 Retail Systems and high-speed Epson TM-T88IV thermal
receipt printers, all of which have been supplied and installed
by distributor Box Technologies.
During the 13-week televised challenge, the two teams will
battle it out to net the most business. At the end of the
process, the winning team will select a charity to receive
the shop’s profits. One lucky WAG will also get to design
her own clothing range.
Cybertill was selected by Talkback Thames TV, who is funding
and producing the series, to supply and train the teams on
the software that drives all the point-of-sale functions.
Says Jonathan Furniss, Production Manager at Talkback Thames
TV: “Cybertill’s software is intuitive and user-friendly which
will help to enable the smooth running of both boutiques.
The company’s interest and support in the show is very much
appreciated.”
To deliver reliable till performance without the overheads
of employing in-house IT staff, Cybertill is providing a high-speed,
broadband, managed service directly from the shops into its
Glasgow Data Centre.
In addition to managing all the accounting processes generated
by the tills, the Cybertill software is giving the WAGs teams
an instant snapshot of how their businesses are performing.
This is helping them to tailor their stock and merchandising
to the items that are walking off the rails.
Adds Cybertill’s Managing Director, Ian Tomlinson: “We are
delighted to be involved in such a worthwhile cause. Behind
the fun of the programmes, the WAGs are competing to raise
significant funds for charity. We’re proud to see our software
helping them to run great businesses for the next few weeks.”
