“On the Road Again” – See you in Lexington!

The twins are looking forward to connecting with many of you next week at CPE in Lexington!

As always, we will provide free training at the show – scheduled from 8:00 AM to 9:30 AM on Sunday morning (Aug 6th).

If that’s too early, Steven and Jon will be available in our booth (#804) while the show floor is open.

We continue working to provide improvements that help make things easier for you. Here’s a short list highlighting a few things recently added…

  • Automatically add a “Convenience Fee” to credit card transaction
  • Added support for SFTP (for changes made by Ingram for electronic ordering)
  • We’ve had support for sending emails using Google’s OAUTH (Gmail) for a few years. We recently added support for Microsoft’s OATH for sending emails using Office 365/Outlook.
  • Food Labels (1″ x 1″)
  • Jewelry (barbell-shaped) labels

Plus, we are doing our final testing on sending text messages directly from within BSMGR to your customers. Our initial thoughts are that it would be useful for special order notifications, texting receipts, and maybe notifying cafe customers that their order is ready to be picked up. We’d love to hear some feedback from you on how integrated texting would help you better serve your customers.

Stop by the booth (#804) and ask any questions you have. It can be about recently added features or maybe something that’s been there for a long time, but you want to start taking advantage of it in your store.

–OR–

You can just stop by to say “Hi!”

Whether or not you are attending CPE, we pray that you are having a positive impact on the lives of those that come to your store.

2020 Christmas Blessing

Sometimes the holidays remind us of what we’ve lost, and we feel like we are all alone. While 2020 has been a difficult year, we are grateful for the reminder that Christmas provides of God’s great love and mercy, shown through sending his Son to live as one of us.

As we close this year, we wish to express our deep gratitude for the work you are doing for the Kingdom and the privilege we have in being a small part of your ministry. As the new year approaches, we pray that God’s grace and blessings will sustain you throughout 2021.

Merry Christmas!
From all of us at Bookstore Manager

All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (which means “God with us”).
– Matthew 1:22-23 (NIV)

2019 CPE International Exhibit Hall Map

Wow! We are just a week away from the 2019 CPE International Show!

We always provide free training opportunities at the shows, and this one is no different. However, we did change the format a little.

Instead of a single big training session covering everything, we are going to split it into two shorter sessions.

If you are a new store owner or manager that hasn’t been trained on all the various features of BSMGR, we will spend an hour on a “Beginners Session” to answer questions and cover basics. This will also be a great opportunity for any new employee to get a basic understanding of how to use the software.

If you are a more seasoned user, we will have an “Advanced Session” where we will focus on a broader range of topics that you may have forgotten could be done for you in BSMGR.

—– Bookstore Manager Software Training Details —–
Sunday, August 25th, 2019
Private Dining Room B (in the Embassy Suites Hotel)
“Beginners Session” – 10:15 a.m. to 11:15 a.m.
“Advanced Session” – 11:45 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.

We will take a lunch break from 11:15 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. Everyone attending either session is welcome to join us for the buffet lunch.

If you have specific questions you’d like to have us include during the Advanced Session, please send those to Robbie@KingdomRetail.com.

Whether or not you are able to make it to a training session, we hope you drop by and say hi. We’ll be in Booth #128.

Thank you for your dedication in ministering God’s word to your community and everyone that visits your store!

We hope you are going — because we look forward to seeing you there!
