Outfitters and wineries also have their own pages. Recreational equipment (/equipment-rental-pos-software) is the bike, the kayak, the paddleboard, and the boat. CIMARA runs the gift shop, the tasting room, the outfitter, and the recreational rental from one system, so a visitor can take a bottle, a hammock, and a T-shirt in one sale. The bike, the kayak, the paddleboard, or the boat is on that same checkout. Booking a tasting or tour is available. Walk-up and advance reservations already run at the counter. The Website Commerce component, an embeddable online booking component, is in active deployment with early customers. Cross-merchant perks are not available today.

A guest signs a detailed digital waiver before the trip, gear is handed out and checked back in at the staging area, and the trip ends at the shop with a souvenir on the same ticket. A guided trip often runs out of cell range. CIMARA POS keeps selling offline at the staging area or out on the trail, and the sale closes the moment the connection returns. Nothing is lost, and nothing double-charges. Online booking via the embeddable Website Commerce component is in active deployment with early customers. CIMARA Ask AI answers inventory and sales questions in plain language. ## More Places We Serve Page: /industries-we-serve/more-places-we-serve Small amusement parks and family entertainment centers, resorts with more than one outlet, festivals and temporary events, and cruise port and terminal retail, all on one inside-sales checkout.

This is not built for a large theme park's gate. A festival or temporary event sells merchandise and food from a booth with CIMARA POS, with no fixed counter required.

Custom columns in plain words, drill-down, charts, and saved reports that rerun on the latest data at no extra cost. Excel, PDF, and print include money-column totals and a record count. Dashboard views are Current, History, Matrix, and Edge. The Advanced Dashboard & Reporting option is on when the license includes it. It is the foundation for the full integration of CIMARA Ask AI into CIMARA Core. Today it is the gated dashboard, headlined by Suggested Stock Reallocation and Purchasing Recommendations (AI analytics that reads sales velocity, on-hand, open-to-buy, and margin across every location, and explains the reasoning behind every suggestion — both work today), plus open-to-buy replenishment, promo suggestions, margin and gold AI reports, saved reruns, and exports. Open-to-buy replenishment shows what to bring in. It does not rebuild open-to-buy, and it does not place the order or change the price. Those reports do not write the purchase order, the transfer, or the markdown. That writer is CIMARA, not a Counterpoint writer. Suggested Stock Reallocation and Purchasing Recommendations are where Ask becomes a business resource: that same intelligence feeds CIMARA Core when it creates the purchase order and the stock transfer. Coming soon to CIMARA Core: the same CIMARA Ask AI, built right into your daily workflows. Its merchandise recommendations become ready-to-review purchase orders, transfers and markdowns with no manual entry, saving untold hours of tedious data analysis so you can make informed decisions with the reasoning to back them up. CIMARA Ask AI is your personal business analyst, not a chatbot. The page shows the public demo login and “Open the dashboard demo”. It does not list a price, including in meta tags and JSON-LD. JSON-LD is a SoftwareApplication named CIMARA Ask AI by Frontier Retail, Inc., with no offers, plus an FAQPage and a VideoObject. “See pricing” opens https://license.frontierretailedge.io/buy.html#ask-dashboard.

The film features the two headline reports, Suggested Stock Reallocation and Purchasing Recommendations, with the reasoning behind every suggestion, and says CIMARA Ask AI is your personal business analyst, not a chatbot. The same question works at a kayak rental dock and in a nature-center gift shop. Text appears only on the soft white title, report, and end cards, never over the footage. Closing spoken line: Call Frontier Retail for more information about the CIMARA platform of retail solutions. (843) 277-8555, Mon–Fri 8 AM–5 PM ET. CIMARA is pronounced si-Mara.

People on screen: a white couple at the gift-shop counter, a Black store manager with a white coworker, a Hispanic rental attendant with a white mother and son at the kayak dock, a white family of four with an Asian clerk in the gift shop, and an Asian owner reading results in the morning. ## Graham Golf Cars Page: /case-studies/graham-golf-cars.
