A pricing gun is a simple little device, but it packs a lot of value and benefits for the merchant using it
. It's already proven that pricing guns save time and money, but lets look at some of the other benefits these devices offer.
Custom Labels
Eye catching is the name of the game. Customers love Pricing Labels where the text size is a bit larger - this makes a lot of difference in the world for many folks. Having the flexibility to choose text size and style allows merchants the option to customize pricing labels for particular products that may expire soon, or merchandise that's on sale.
Two Line Labels - some Pricing Guns offer two line labels. The advantage to this type of label is the "was" and "now" feature. It's a great visual selling point when a customer can see two prices on the label - before and now. There's another benefit to this...ongoing reminder. What happens when a customer gets home? Each time they use that product they are reminded of what a good deal they got.
Promotional Pricing Guns
With a brand pricing gun you can make attention grabbing labels. Labels such as "Special" and "On Sale" are easy to make, but have a tremendous impact on attracting a customers eye. There is also the option to change text colors and framing. The benefit to this type of pricing gun is creativity...you may have to test out a few labels to see what works.
Price
Many of the pricing guns that offer a fair amount of features cost under $100.00. Even at the next pricing tier - $100.00 to $150.00 - the time saved in pricing and inventory coding is well worth the investment.
The mechanics of a pricing gun are pretty simple. You have a print head, an inker, and the labels. These days, unless you purchase the high-end models, it's more cost effective just to buy a new pricing gun compared to repairing the old one. You have nothing to lose so get your own pricing gun today.
