“The best investment is in the tools of one’s own trade.” - Benjamin Franklin
Having the right tools in your toolbox is essential for any job you do. If you were a plumber, you would not show up to a job and try to do the work with your bare hands. You would not send your employees out to a job with no tools. No, you would show up with the right tools to get the job done. The same applies to every business, including marinas!
Some inexperienced managers may ask, “Why does the business need anything other than accounting software?”
Accounting software is just that – “accounting software” – and nothing more. It does not consider your everyday business functionality and everything that goes into running your business.
In the marina industry, you need more than accounting software. As a manager, you must ensure your team has the right tools to help them succeed. In turn, you, as a manager, and your business will thrive.
Why does your business need anything other than accounting software?
In the marina industry, there are many day-to-day tasks your team members complete. From checking boats into their slips, point-of-sale transactions in the ship store, fuel transactions at the fuel pumps, invoicing, service work, and the list of tasks goes on and on.
Each team member and department has specific tasks they complete. Therefore, as a business manager, you need to ensure each team member is fulfilling their particular responsibilities and that you have equipped them with the right tools. For example, the team member working in the ship store needs a point-of-sale station that is easy to use. The fuel attendant needs to be able to do his job. Managers should not require all personnel to know how to enter data into the accounting software. Doing so would be inefficient and impractical in many ways.
Choose the right tools for your staff to get the job done!
Marina management software streamlines processes by providing a user-friendly interface that helps team members and your business be successful. Including:
Provides a map to see your spaces available for vessels.
Allows users to check customers in and out.
Give users the data they need to know who is checking in today, tomorrow, or next week.
Automate recurring, seasonal, and other invoicing and payment processing.
Manage the slips and boats at the marina easily.
Collect vital customer data to connect with your customers.
Service and work order software helps you streamline complicated ongoing processes, including estimates, work orders, jobs, payments, invoices, tech time, and inventory – all at your fingertips. You don’t have to search through papers and folders. That data only takes seconds for you to look up and know the exact phase or step you and your customer is at this time.
Point-of-Sale software automates the transaction process in your ship stores. It makes it easy to enter the items and collect payments. The software walks your seasonal help through the process with a user-friendly interface.
Provides reports for management to make short-term and long-term business decisions.
Provides audit trails to help with accountability.
Vessel data, including insurance expiration dates and more, help you make important business and insurance decisions.
