Dick's Climbing owner, Richard Hall explains his situation and how Brightpearl was able to help....
Easy to get used to
“I started using Brightpearl shortly after I started my climbing business. At the time I was using a system of Excel spreadsheets for my accounts. I had a very basic 3 page website, was using a manual analogue till and had no stock control or purchasing systems at all.
Brightpearl was recommended to me, and once I had tried it out I didn’t find it necessary to look elsewhere. It was easy to get used to, and Brightpearl managed the setup very quickly. I have been using the software for about 3 years now and am still finding new features to use every day. I now use Brightpearl for a multitude of business processes including accounts, stock control, purchasing, CRM and managing my ecommerce website (which is no longer just a basic 3 pages).
Makes everything so simple
I particularly like how all of the different business processes are integrated, Epos, stock control, website and accounts all working together in one system. With Brightpearl there’s no need to learn and manage lots of different software packages, and all your data is in one place so you only need to input it the once. It just makes everything so simple.
Brightpearl helps me to keep everything organised and has given me structure to the way I go about my business. The system allows me to effortlessly keep my website up to date and has made selling online very easy to get involved with.”
