Just as newsagency businesses are changing so is newsagency software. Traditional and non traditional suppliers are expecting more of the software and this is pressuring the software companies to invest considerably to keep up.
Speaking from my own knowledge as owner of Tower Systems serving 1,850+ newsagents, we have eight newsagency business specific projects in development for newsagency software – involving retail as well as distribution – at the moment with most of these projects focused on business areas that would not have been involved just a few years ago.
Technology is playing a more important role than ever and newsagents will be able to use new technology to mine for new opportunities and new shoppers.
It is exciting to see these developments evolve and unlock opportunities for newsagents.
