Point of Sale system, powered by N4, increases firm's sales by 22%

The Point of Sale (POS) system powered by N4Solutions, the UK's leading provider of distribution and fulfilment technology for mortgages and financial planning, has increased a firm's sales by 22%.

A leading, Surrey-based, financial consultancy firm, Rock Financial Consultants, an Appointed Representative of Intrinsic Financial Services, has seen a 22% increase in sales since the introduction of the Intrinsic POS platform, powered by N4, twelve months ago, due to significant increases in efficiency.

Key reasons for increased sales:

  • Increased efficiency
  • Decreased business processing time
  • Decreased administration for consultants

The POS system has directly impacted profit figures, through additional turnover and productivity at Rock Financial Consultants. Business volumes have increased by over 20% but total administration costs have remained constant resulting in reduced costs per case.

David Carter, director of Rock Financial Consultants, says; "Quite simply the POS system has enabled our consultants to do more business per head. POS is a state-of-the art system within our industry and it is good to be working with a company utilising systems at the forefront of financial services technology."

George Higginson, sales operations director, Intrinsic, says; "The Point of Sale technology offered by N4 provides a straight-through processing capability, allowing advisers to use their time more efficiently. We are delighted that this has been reflected in sales turnover at Rock Financial Consultants and confident that it will continue into the future."
