Apple equips small businesses to expand and cater to their clients effectively
In the world of modern commerce, technology plays a pivotal role in streamlining operations and enhancing customer experiences. Two local businesses, Señor Sisig and Darianna Bridal & Tuxedo, have embraced Apple's small business tools to revolutionise their day-to-day activities.
Señor Sisig, a popular Filipino food chain, leverages Apple Business Connect to keep its customers informed about its various locations. With this tool, customers can easily find Señor Sisig's place cards in Apple Maps, order food, and complete payment, making dining-out a hassle-free experience.
Darianna Bridal & Tuxedo, on the other hand, has transformed its in-store sales process by adopting the iPad with Square as its primary cash register. Employees can now use Tap to Pay on iPhone with the Square Point of Sale app to complete sales from anywhere in the store, alleviating wait times during peak wedding season. This innovation ensures a smooth and efficient shopping experience for their customers.
Both businesses have also utilised Apple's communication tools. Darianna Bridal & Tuxedo uses the LiveHelpNow app for iPhone and Mac to communicate with customers who text the store's landline, while Señor Sisig's employees use Apple devices for inventory management, sales monitoring, communication, and have recently adopted Apple Business Essentials for IT needs.
Señor Sisig, with its strong relationships with Apple business partners, has its sights set on expansion. The food chain is eyeing growth outside of the Bay Area, California, and even the country. Darianna Bridal & Tuxedo, too, has been using Apple Business Connect to update its place card with fresh photos and promote upcoming events, demonstrating a commitment to keeping customers informed.
For businesses eager to learn more about Apple's small business tools, a virtual session is scheduled for June 14. To attend, simply visit the specified website. Additionally, 'Grow Your Business With Apple' sessions will be held at Apple Store locations in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Chicago during National Small Business Week, starting April 30, 2023. These sessions offer expertise on Apple's small business tools, providing an excellent opportunity for businesses to learn and grow.
Apple Business Essentials, a service that combines device management, 24/7 Apple Support, and iCloud storage into one subscription, is another tool that small businesses can benefit from. This all-in-one solution can help businesses manage their IT needs effectively and efficiently.
In the digital age, adopting technology is no longer an option but a necessity for businesses. Companies like Señor Sisig and Darianna Bridal & Tuxedo are leading the way, demonstrating how Apple's small business tools can transform local businesses and create a better customer experience.
