Day 378 – Year in Review: Equipment
A big part of getting started is purchasing all of the necessary equipment; laptop computer, bottle scale, barcode scanner, hand held scanner, keg scale and few small other miscellaneous items that will help you complete your audits. But don’t fear, the technical support group at BEVINCO Global Office does a lot of the ground work for you. They have gone through a lot of effort to research the best equipment for the job and to have 
performed a number of tests to make sure performance requirements are met and integration is simple. The equipment can be purchased through Global office or purchased on your own. There are some options to buy refurbished units on-line which can save you a few dollars if your start up budget is tight. Throughout the year I have tested various scales and computers that other f
ranchisees have recommended and they all do the job without any issues. I have two simple recommendations regarding your auditing equipment; bring your equipment (except your keg scale) to the initial franchisee training because the on-site tech support will set up your equipment for you which is a big help. I did not....... and I ended up having some last minute phone calls on a Sunday with tech support to get me up and running. The other recommendation is rechargeable batteries! These scales eat up batteries quick after a week of use. The rechargeable batteries will last longer and it will save you a lot of money. Have a second set and you will never be at risk for having a dead scale.

do you need special cards or information uploaded to your scanner, or how does that work?
