Mainline Knows Retail
Mainline has been working with Retail companies for almost 20 years. From the statement of work and the implementation, to support and services, we have you covered. We can provide the technology you need from the wrap stand - with our IBM Store Management Solutions; to the floor - with our IBM Self-Service Solutions; to your data center - with our IBM Storage and IBM Server Solutions; to your Loss Prevention Department - with our Digital Video Surveillance Solutions. We will even help you with financing. And, we have a special program for retailers just like you -- you pay less when you sell less. Wouldn't it be nice to pay less for your technology during slow selling seasons? At Mainline, we have your bottom line in mind.

Mainline Understands the Retailer's Needs:

Strengthening Customer Loyalty

• Mainline's Retail Solution creates brand-loyal customers by supporting marketing initiatives such as loyalty card programs. Learn what your customers want, and need, by keeping track of what they buy and what they don't buy. Understand their different purchasing behaviors. Segment your customers and provide them with compelling offers that keep them coming back to your stores over and over again.

• With Mainline's Kiosk Solution, customers can access information from anywhere in your store! They can immediately find what they are looking for which improves their shopping experience.
• Accelerate customer's checkout time with Mainline's POS Solution to increase customer satisfaction. IBM's SureMark printers use thermal technology for fast, almost instant, receipt printing. IBM's SurePOS Series have high processing speeds for a quick checkout.
• Stay ahead of your customers, and never run out of stock of a popular item, by using Mainline's Retail Solutions merchandise planning software. Features like auto-transfers and auto-replenishments ensure that you always have what your customers are looking for, which helps increase customer satisfaction, but also means you don't lose a sale!

• Mainline can help you run your retail business more efficiently. With Mainline's Retail Solutions, training time for employees can be reduced significantly getting them up and running quicker.
• Increase total sale of shopping cart by suggesting additional complementary products with Mainline's Self-Service Solutions.
• Mainline only sells the best hardware for the retail environment that is rugged and
  retail-hardened. This means that the life of your technology is increased, and you won't have to replace your hardware as often as with other solutions. Sometimes it can last up to 10 years!

• Reduce inventory shrinkage by implementing Mainline's Digital Video Surveillance solution. A store owner, doing $400,000 per year with an average of 3% shrink, is forfeiting $12,000 per year from their pocket. In the last 10 years, employee theft has overtaken customer losses as the greatest portion of shrinkage figures. It is estimated that 1 out of every 3 retailers, who goes bankrupt, do so because of employee theft.
• Mainline's POS Software also has the loss prevention features you need to dramatically reduce shrinkage, lock down the system, capture events behind the scenes, and prevent employee and customer fraud. It can tie video feeds to transactional data -- resulting in better case management. Mainline can help you stop losing money from your bottom line.
