X-Margin is an online system that
allows you to create any number of full supplier product catalogues
extremely quickly. You can import, copy-n-paste directly from e.g.
Excel or you can type using text manipulators to save hours of typing.
The very second that the products are in your database, you're ready
to recalculate them with an extremely versatile built-in calculator.
Choose from a whole list of different price rounding techniques
or, design your own, setting up rules on how prices should be rounded.
Drill down into your calculated prices to obtain and observe average
margin, markup and discounts across all of your suppliers simultaneously.
Then drill down into ranges and items for exact margin figures.
Highlight where margin is too low, discount is too great or even
highlight where you haven't given enough discount to match your
advertising. What you might call trading-standards-friendly.

When a customer is sitting in your
showroom looking through e.g. a fabric swatch for a particular sofa,
there's nothing more frustrating than having to go back and forth
to a computer or filing cabinet to find the price of the item in
different grades of fabric.
In2Retail.com offer a range of different price lists that you can
simply print off and leave around the showroom. You can even choose
different coloured lists to print so that an out of date list can
be spotted from across the showroom.
One of our styles, furniture range charts, actually print a small
image of the item along with your prices so that your customers
are instantly aware of the full range of products available from
that particular supplier.

Our online systems also offer a full
furniture retail price ticketing / labelling system. You can design
your own tickets and upload them to your own private folder that
only you and your staff can access from any location & from
any branch with unlimited users throughout your company.
You can flag items as a ticket-requirement within the X-Margin system
and flag them within a showroom system or just type them in manually.
The text automatically adjusts to fit the ticket.
Whenever you re-calculate your 'Event' prices the ticketing system
can print all items that have been flagged as being in your different
departments or branches, instantly and automatically.
These systems are all about speed & efficiency, where you need
an 'Event' for the weekend, you can actually set it up on the Friday
before. It really is that fast.

If you place a touch screen within
your showroom, as soon as you change price in X-Margin, the prices
are instantly updated on every touch screen regardless of which
branch or showroom the screen is in.
These units are not that expensive and simply require virtually
any old PC to run them. Nothing to install, just hook up to the
Internet and you can then lock any range from within your private
X-Margin database directly to that particular screen.
Any number of screens can be directly driven by X-Margin. Your customers
will be more aware of other items available from the same range
and have more product detail available with the touch of the screen.
These screens directly assist you in selling non stocked items where
the customer can feel and see the quality of showroom items and
then view alternatives on the touch screen.

Most furniture stores now have a
web site, but more than often find it quite time consuming to keep
the site up to date where there may be a hundred or so items to
view.
Using X-Margin, you can send your entire database directly to your
existing web site if you wish. Meaning potentially 10's of thousands
of products, descriptions, dimensions prices and images.
We work directly with web designers and guide them on how to link
to X-Margin where the system can mirror whatever details are needed
directly to your site. Alternatively, your web designers can work
on the design and have all of the code inserted for them, saving
you 10's of thousands of pounds, dollars or euro in web development
of furniture related web functions.
If you have an 'Event' and change price in-store, your web site
is updated within a few seconds. You can upload a single image and
it is automatically rescaled into different sizes for the web. You
can share in a unique online furniture image database with thousands
of images already to use. You simply click a button to attach the
images to your products.
X-Margin also offers you separate price control of your web site
if you wish to use it. Meaning that your web could run at either
the same price as your store or at different prices. All margin
controlled from within X-Margin.

If you already have a furniture stock
control system you may find that you have to do some jobs repeatedly
in order to satisfy your data demands for, your web site, your price
ticketing, your epos and so on.
One of the key points about In2Retail systems is in integration
with other systems. There are already a multitude of export formats
to choose from with many a bespoke version to the leading furniture
retail stock systems. X-Margin can also export in all of the standard
CSV and Excel formats so often used within other systems.
Stores often regard X-Margin as the store 'Master' catalogue with
all other in-house systems picking up one of the X-Margin exports.
This means that you only need type it once and then use it in many.
Adding to much greater data reliability and accuracy.
