For places people visit

Make the next visit easy to plan.

I build around what customers need before they arrive: current hours, what you offer and a clear next step. Keep your register. Add Growth or the Hub when you need them.

Give a new visitor a reason to choose your place.

A customer may be checking your menu, planning an appointment or deciding whether to stop by. I make the information for that visit easy to reach, with offer conditions clear before they arrive.

  • Keep your hours and visit details current.
  • Show what is available before someone arrives.
  • Make each offer clear at your existing register.

Before and after the next visit.

Help someone plan a visit.

I make your menu or services easy to find before someone arrives. Add Growth for ongoing search work and business listings.

Keep the next visit in view.

Add the Hub above Growth for your customer records and offer program. Keep your register; the offers work through codes used at the counter.

The offer program

How does the offer program work with the register I already have?

First-time offerReturning-customer offerReferral rewardMonthly giveaway

Nothing to integrate and nothing to switch. A QR code on the counter or the receipt takes the customer to a hosted form in the TRND Hub™. The Hub sends the first-time offer as a code, and the code is redeemed at the register as an ordinary offer code, which every register supports. From that moment the customer is on a list with a date against their name.

Joined list is the entry point, not a pipeline stage. From there the retail pipeline runs first-time offer, redeemed, returning, lapsed and win-back. At every stage the Hub asks whether this customer has gone cold for too many days. A customer who redeemed the first offer and has not been back in six weeks gets the returning-customer offer. A regular who lapses gets the win-back. A happy customer gets the referral reward and a place in the monthly giveaway.

If you run Square, the Hub can read your sales in so that returning and lapsed are measured rather than self-reported. That connection is Square today. For every other register, the code path above works as described.

Our competitors

How does it compare with the register bundle and the restaurant platform?

Two honest columns. The register marketing bundle is a tool you run yourself. The restaurant platform does run it for you, and it beats AutoTRND on online ordering and a branded app. A restaurant living on online orders should go to them. Everyone else in retail is who this is built for.

The two blank rows in our column are real: AutoTRND does not do online ordering or a branded app. The blank rows in theirs are the work. Nobody in this table handles the Google profile, the reviews and the monthly content for a barbershop or a gym except us.
