## Problems We Solve

- **Group, Semi-Private, and 1-on-1 — All Priced and Tracked by Hand** — A client has three privates left, another is on an unlimited group plan, a third bought a semi-private pack with a friend. Keeping every session type and balance straight in your head means clients dispute what they have left, and you give away sessions you were never paid for.
- **Reconciling Instructor Pay From Three Sources Every Month** — Your instructors teach group classes, take privates, and cover each other. Some are paid per head, some per session. At month-end you are piecing it together from the schedule, the attendance sheet, and memory — and one error costs you the trust of a teacher you depend on.

## How EliteTeQ Solves It

- Sell and track group, semi-private, and private sessions with packs and live balances per client. *Every client's remaining sessions are accurate, disputes end, and you stop giving away unpaid sessions.*
- Track every group class and private session per instructor with attendance, and calculate payouts automatically on your rules. *Instructor pay is accurate and transparent in minutes, protecting the trust of the teachers you rely on.*

## How It Works

1. **Set Up Classes & Memberships** — Create class schedules, pricing, memberships, and equipment limits.
2. **Teach, Check In & Sell** — Enroll members, check in students, sell sessions, and process retail sales.
3. **Track, Optimize & Grow** — Use real-time insights to improve utilization and retention.

## Running a Business in Blantyre

Blantyre sits in Southern Region and is Malawi's commercial and industrial capital.

Blantyre is the country's business centre, with more manufacturing, wholesale and formal retail than Lilongwe and a correspondingly larger share of business-to-business supply trade. As a landlocked market most goods arrive overland through Mozambique or Tanzania, so landed cost and resupply timing affect margins directly. Fiscal receipting requirements apply as nationally.

More manufacturing, wholesale and formal retail than the capital, with goods arriving overland through Mozambique or Tanzania. The binding constraint is landed-cost tracking on long import routes plus fiscal receipting on every sale.

## Frequently Asked Questions

- **What currency and payment methods does EliteTeQ POS support in Blantyre?** EliteTeQ POS prices in MWK (MK) and records Airtel Money, card and cash against the same sale, so pilates studios businesses in Blantyre close the day on one set of reconciled totals instead of three. Tax invoices are produced to MRA requirements, and the till keeps working when the connection drops.
- **Is EliteTeQ POS suitable for pilates studios businesses in Blantyre?** Yes. Blantyre sits in Southern Region, and a POS here has to invoice wholesale customers and track landed cost on overland imports. EliteTeQ POS is built for exactly that — MWK pricing, Airtel Money recorded against each sale, MRA-ready tax invoicing, and full offline operation so trading continues when power or network does not.
- **Can the POS manage private Pilates sessions?** Yes, the POS fully supports private, semi-private, and group Pilates sessions within a single system. You can configure each session type with its own pricing, duration, instructor assignment, and booking capacity, so clients can reserve the exact format they need. When a private session is booked, the system blocks the relevant studio space and equipment automatically, preventing double-bookings and ensuring a seamless client experience.
- **Can I sell class packs?** Yes, multi-class packs are a built-in feature, allowing you to sell bundles of sessions that clients redeem over time. Each time a client attends a class, the system automatically deducts one credit from their pack and updates their remaining balance in real time. Staff can instantly check a client's credit balance at check-in, and the system can be set to alert clients when their pack is running low, encouraging timely renewals.
- **Can I sell Pilates retail products?** Yes, retail sales are fully integrated into the same POS used for class bookings, so you can sell grip socks, resistance bands, apparel, and any other studio merchandise without switching systems. Inventory levels update automatically with every sale, and low-stock alerts notify you when it is time to reorder popular items. Bundling retail products with class packs or memberships at checkout is also supported, making it easy to increase average transaction value.

## From the EliteTeQ Team

**We have watched a client arrive to a class with no reformer free.** We know that Pilates capacity is about apparatus, not room size, and the month-end scramble to reconcile instructor pay across group and private sessions. EliteTeQ was not built in a boardroom — it was built next to real Pilates and boutique studios in Nairobi, capping classes by equipment, tracking session balances, and automating renewals.
