Poynt Sales Interview with CC Sales Pro and Joey Marzelli

James Shepherd from CC Sales Pro hosts a conversation with Joey Marzelli, Co-founder and Head of Sales at Boomtown, about the Poynt smart terminal and how it is transforming the payments industry. You can watch the full interview here: http://ccsalespro.com/poynt-terminal-live-event/

A quick recap from the conversation:

Poynt is the world's first smart terminal and is gaining traction across all business types. Poynt is quickly becoming the operating system for all types of businesses. Some key features are:

EMV built in (in addition to NFC for Apple Pay, cash, check, EBT, gift card, mag stripe, pin on glass)
Connects to WiFi, 3G or both
Battery life up to 8 hours
Built-in receipt printer
Pay-at-table ready

CC Sales Pro believes that Poynt will be a dominate point-of-sale system in the industry because it is:

Open Platform - Built on Android and developers have the ability to build apps right on the Poynt device.
Integrated with Key Players - It plays nicely with existing systems like Quickbooks

A few favorite apps

Quickbooks integration
Homebase - employee tracking and time management
List Builder - capture emails from customers for marketing purposes
eHopper - in-depth inventory management for retail locations

Sales tactics

Keep it simple and don't oversell
Don't overcomplicate what it can do - it's closer to a terminal than a full point-of-sale
Choose 2-3 apps you know well and use those to help the sale
Compare the smart terminal to a dumb terminal like a smartphone compares to a flip phone

Reporting

Available on desktop and mobile
Can easily sync sales across multiple terminals
Can easily sync sales across multiple locations
