UPS, Not Just a Brown Truck
Well, it’s that time of year again; the time when thousands of people are anxiously awaiting the arrival of a brown truck at their front door in hopes of receiving presents to set under their tree. But what if you are a business, not an individual? You too, love UPS, but we’re not talking about the kind that delivers boxes in a brown truck.
With Black Friday quickly approaching, businesses are trying to get out of the red and into the black. As a business owner, I would think you would want that day (crowds and all) to run as smoothly as possible. So this season, why not buy your business some piece of mind. Give Johnston Technologies in Franklin, TN a call and talk to them about what they can do to provide you with the reliability that your company needs.
What is a UPS, you ask? It is an Uninterruptible Power Supply. Connected to your company’s computer system, a UPS is like a battery backup for your computer (or data center or telecommunications equipment) that will ensure in the event of a power outage or surge, you will have uninterrupted service for your customers.
Picture this scenario…its Black Friday. Crowds are lined up at your door to get their hands on your special deals. They want to get in, buy their stuff, and head to the next place. Now what if your computer system goes down and it’s connected to the credit card machines? Do you know how much money it will cost you when frustrated customers drop what they’re holding and leave for the next store, rather than wait for you to try and get your system up and running again? TONS.
And don’t say you have a standby generator either. Did you know they take a while to
kick on? Yep, it’s not an automatic response. Plus, since your system was down a while, you will need to wait for it to reboot itself. AND IN THE MEANTIME, YOU HAVE LOST A BUNCH OF CUSTOMERS WHO WANTED TO SPEND MUCHO DINERO IN YOUR PLACE OF BUSINESS.
Now picture this scenario…a huge storm has developed outside causing a huge energy surge inside. Wet shoppers are scurrying around the mall looking for the year’s best deals. Much to their dismay, many stores aren’t open because their computer systems are temporarily down. Then they see your business with the doors open, lights on, and customers quickly moving through the checkout line. Why? BECAUSE YOUR BUSINESS WAS SMART ENOUGH TO HAVE JOHNSTON TECHNOLOGIES INSTALL A UPS…UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER SUPPLY…BEFORE THE HOLIDAYS.
Now I don’t know about you, but this sounds like a no brainer to me. Let’s see, on one hand we have frustrated shoppers and a business that couldn’t make it out of the red.
On the other hand, we have shoppers emptying their wallets in your store and a business who made it into the black. Hmm. I think I’ll go with the second hand, the store with the UPS.
So don’t take the chance of losing out on all the people who want to spend money this season. Ensure yourself and get peace of mind by having Johnston Technologies install an Uninterruptible Power Supply in your store. It’s the long term solution to keeping your computer system running, that you won’t regret.
