Bill Jackson’s replaces 20-year-old retail software with enterprise POS system

Bill Jackson’s had relied on the same retail system for more than 20 years, but outdated technology, limited reporting and discontinued support could no longer meet the business’s needs. See how Bill Jackson’s modernized retail with Celerant, streamlined accounting and firearm management, and expanded online sales through integrated eCommerce.

CHALLENGE

Outdated retail software limits efficiency and growth

Bill Jackson’s had relied on the same point of sale system for more than 20 years. As the business evolved, the outdated software lacked the features, integrations and reporting needed to support modern retail operations.

  • Outdated POS software: The legacy system lacked modern features, updates and integrations
  • Manual accounting: Accounting functions were not built into the software, requiring additional manual work
  • Limited inventory and compliance tools: Reporting was insufficient, and the system lacked A&D compliance functionality for firearms
SOLUTION

Retail software connects sales and operations

After switching to Celerant, Bill Jackson’s gained an enterprise POS system that connects with QuickBooks, digital A&D and online sales, inventory and scheduling for the store’s dive tank, firing range and ski area.

  • Modern retail software: Updated functionality and an easy-to-use interface support day-to-day operations
  • Integrated accounting and compliance: QuickBooks and digital A&D book integrations simplify financial analysis and firearm recordkeeping
  • Flexible business management: The system can adapt as needs evolve and supports specialized scheduling alongside inventory and sales
RESULTS

More efficient operations with connected retail tools

With Celerant in place, Bill Jackson’s now runs more efficient, streamlined operations on a scalable retail platform. Regular software updates and new functionality allow the system to adapt as the business grows and its needs continue to change.

Accounting and firearm management integrations improve accuracy and productivity while reducing manual work, giving employees more time to focus on customers.

With an adaptable retail platform and ongoing partnership with Celerant, Bill Jackson’s can continue improving operations and remain competitive as the business evolves.

We like the point of sale, our accounting integration with QuickBooks and the electronic A&D book. It's like going from using an abacus to an iPad. We run our business more smoothly now that Celerant is always moving forward with us.

ABOUT THE CLIENT

About Bill Jackson's

Bill Jackson began his business in the back of a garage with a ton of bleach and 500 pounds of rat poison. If that sounds bizarre and a little unbelievable, it is! They say it all began by accident. Through the years, the Jacksons credit much of their success to word-of-mouth networking and to their expert staff. They hire only those who have a passion for the outdoors and a great deal of knowledge about their sport. That even includes snow skiing. Their revolving ski deck has attracted flabbergasted visitors from around the globe. On any given day in the ski shop, you can hear someone say, “Snow skiing in Florida? Are you kidding? This is some store!” And it is. It’s one of a kind.
