Arriesgado Clothing Company opened in December 2007 and is operated by Cabal Yarne who moved to Vail, CO in October 2000. Yarne started in fashion with Limited Brands in Columbus, OH as a buyer/sourcing assistant for Structure. Prior to opening Arriesgado Clothing Company, Cabal worked managing and running multiple stores throughout the Vail Valley. Through the seven year period of working for other businesses in Vail Cabal had many opportunities to use different point of sale systems and got acquainted with different ways to manage inventory and sales. When it came time to open his own store it was an easy decision as to which retail solution he would go. There were cheaper systems out there that Yarne considered, but when compared with Retail Pro they just didn't stack up. Retail Pro was worth a little extra upfront because it would save thousands in the future. Retail Pro eliminated a lot of human error. It gave Cabal a way to track employee sales and employee security issues. Also it was easy for store employees to put inventory in the system and to check the floor and storage for sizes and items they were not sure they had without running all over the place.

As the Arriesgado staff continued to learn and use Retail Pro reports, it really became a big part of how they do things. Retail reports can show you anything. You can track what merchandise is selling well, what is being discounted too much and what should probably go on sale. The reports also make payroll a breeze. Printing out inventory receiving reports along with sales reports has made it easy for Arriesgado figure out sell through ratios and has helped Arriesgado to get out of bad inventory situations and to move into better inventory situations. Retail Pro can help you figure out almost anything you need to know to run your business if you take the time to understand it. If you don't understand something there is always an ARMS employee willing to help. I can't tell you how many times an Arriesgado employee has called Kelly Walton and she has had an easy answer to what they need to do every time and she was always happy to help. Kelly has not only helped Arriesgado employees, but 9 times out of 10 she leaves them smiling and in a happier mood than when they called. Stacey Ryan is also always very happy to help. Numerous times Cabal has contacted Stacey thinking it is time to open the next store and wants a quote on a system. That new store has not come to fruition yet, but we are hopeful it will. ARMS employees give great customer service. Every business should try to be as happy to help their customers. The one piece of advice that Yarne offers is don't be cheap when it comes to your point of sale, you will end up paying for it in the long run. It is tough enough to make a business successful these days, don't have your POS be part of the problem when you can go with a great product like Retail Pro for a little more.
