Matt Wampler argues that treating POS systems as isolated technology decisions is outdated. Instead, brands should build flexible, scalable platforms that let them pivot quickly and avoid legacy constraints without being locked in.
I don't think you should be making a POS decision, period. I think thinking about the POS change as a POS change is so 2000s, 2015, whatever you want to call it. It's so archaic. I think what you should think about is what kind of platform do I need to have so that I have a sustainable growth trajectory for my technology needs in the future? So the way brands should think about is, What platform do I need to have? What foundation do I need to lay so that my life is easier? My life, you know, I can change and pivot very quickly. I can anticipate the future, and then I'm not, you know, I'm not necessarily married where I can't change very quickly.
