Merchants are talking
The TL program has been a great addition to my local store marketing. I have several stores with 3000+ customer sign ups! This large database allows me to increase revenue by sending out textALERTS about $5 Friday, promote additional offers and or sell gift cards!
TL Connects helps us easily connect with our guest! This company is great to work with!
An economical way to reach out to the customer and simple enough that it is not intimidating to less computer savvy customers. This software seems to be very flexible and can be designed to meet the needs of different establishments.
Software drives footsteps into our store which we in turn convert to dollars in the register. This product is very easy to use and I recommend it to everyone who will listen.
