Shot Spirits Corporation's GuestSnapshot(TM) System Tracks $4.14 Billion in Sales
LEESBURG, Va., March 25 /PRNewswire/ -- Shot Spirits Corporation (Pink Sheets: SSPT) is pleased to announce that GuestMetrics', the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, premier analytical software system has tracked over $4 billion in sales generated from 584 million records captured at the point of sale from bars and restaurant in 2009.
GuestSnapshot™'s premier analytical software is currently installed in locations that span 844 cities nationwide. Clients of the product include companies such as Ruth's Chris Steak House, as well as franchisees of national accounts including T.G.I Fridays, Chili's, Melting Pot, Famous Dave's and Hooters to name a few. The data GuestSnapshot™'s collects from these locations is then provided to companies such as Republic Distributing Company, Pernod Ricard, American Express, Bacardi, amongst others.
Information is one of the most essential parts in the operation of all business organizations. For data to be useful it needs to be captured and then analyzed to determine actual sales activity and trends at the macro level down to the individual locations. Across Europe, Asia, and North America, hospitality firms spend approximately $420 million annually on business intelligence, according to an article on www.microsoft.com. The use of an established data mining and analytical tool can help organizations find valuable consumer information concealed within millions of database records. In addition, this data gathered over a time period can be used to gain important insight into consumer trends.
POS dealers can now offer their customers an online reporting application that was previously only available to national accounts. GuestSnapshot provides multi-site restaurant operators comparative reporting on keymetrics, labor costs, fraud detection, employee performance and promotional campaign effectiveness. By using the information available in these reports, restaurant owners can improve menu options, track promotions and identify training issues.
"We are delighted with the solid growth of our GuestSnapshot™ software system," stated Brian P. Barrett, President, CEO of GuestMetrics, Inc. "It simplifies keymetrics reporting which allows restaurant owners to make informed decisions and ultimately leads to the growth of their business."
