3 Ways To Better Secure Your Consignment/Resale Store
Author: Dean
I've been helping consignment & resale store-owners since 2003. I started The Computer Peeps in February of 2010.
After 15 years of working with consignment stores, I understand the unique challenges consignment & resale storeo-wners face. From electrical issues in old building or strip malls, to advocating for them when their consignment software keeps crashing.
I now manage over 400 computer systems, servers & websites for store-owners all across North America and I am the developer/programmer of Peeps' Software -- the only software written FOR consignment & resale stores specifically.

Consignment Software End-of-Year Backups
For ConsignPro consignment software users, you’ve been told for years, “Make sure you do your end-of-year backup!” Stores would call us, ask us how to do this, and every year it would be an ordeal as stores tried to accomplish this task.

Reason #247 Why Peeps’ Software Is Better Than The Old Consignment Software Systems
Just got off the phone with a customer that called-in to report, “We’re down — we can’t ring-up any sales!!!” Their issue? The NumLock key was off on their keyboard. 🙂 NumLock off = can’t type numbers using the numbers/keypad on the right = can’t type-in dollar amounts, item numbers, etc.
