One POS to Rule them All—Why Your Franchise Should Standardize its POS

As a franchisor, you know that your franchise consists of a lot of moving parts. A major driver of franchises’ success stems from standardization—customers know they can receive the same great service, food, and atmosphere no matter which location they choose. The same principle should be applied to the logistics behind every operation, including your POS.

Your point of sale system is at the heart of nearly every aspect of your business, meaning what you really need is one POS to rule them all.

Read on to find out why your franchise should standardize its POS, and how choosing a platform like Adora will boost business, drive sales, and make your life easier:

You Can’t Be in Two Places at Once, But Your Data Can

Whether your locations are spread out across a city, state, or country, it’s impossible to be everywhere at once. If your POS is tethered to hardware, it means you’ll have to physically travel to the store in order to access data or make adjustments. Unlike many traditional big-box POS systems, Adora is 100% cloud-based.

This means you can access all your information from anywhere, at any time—all you need is an internet connection. Plus, since it isn’t tied to hardware, individual locations can utilize the technology they already have. 

Essential Metrics Won’t Slip Through the Cracks

Even if your individual locations are all monitoring key metrics and collecting data, there’s still a large margin for error if they aren’t all using the same POS. Adora provides centralized, streamlined enterprise management tools like:

When you’re able to accurately see every piece of the puzzle, you can make guided decisions based on data, and better plan for the future ahead.

Customization is Still Key

Even though the beauty of a franchise lies in replicating a successful concept, there’s also something to be said for keeping each location unique—and setting it up for success based on its individual needs. Adora’s state-of-the-art system works just as well for customization as it does for standardization.

Whether you want to test out a new special at one location before launching it franchise-wide, or run a location-specific promo, you can make as many individual changes as you need to with Adora. Your POS shouldn’t limit your menu, and Adora offers menu control at the store, franchise, and corporate levels. This means you can customize:

• Item names
• Prices
• Descriptions
• Images
• Online coupons

Standardizing your POS means making adjustments doesn’t have to be a hassle, which makes it easier to make adjustments as soon as you discover what’s working and what isn’t.

A System Designed with Franchises in Mind

Adora was created to ease the burden that comes with juggling multiple locations. Not only does it provide premier, forward-thinking solutions to everyday restaurant problems, but it’s also scalable—and perfect for growing businesses. No matter if you’re running one store or one hundred, you’ll still have access to today’s most modern, technologically advanced features. It’s 2022, and there’s no reason your POS shouldn’t work for your franchise. The best part is, all you need is one POS to rule them all.
