A Pilates-studio-ready POS system designed for boutique fitness studios in Dire Dawa, helping operators sell class packs, manage private sessions, and grow predictable recurring revenue from one dashboard.

## 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 Dire Dawa

Dire Dawa is an eastern trade and rail city.

Dire Dawa is a commercial city on the rail corridor toward Djibouti, which makes import and transit trade a large share of its activity and ties restocking to freight schedules. Amharic-script receipting and Ethiopian-calendar reporting apply as nationally. Cash dominates settlement, with cross-border influence on pricing from the Djibouti corridor.

The rail corridor toward Djibouti makes import and transit trade central, tying restocking to freight rather than local demand. The binding constraint is stock planning against freight schedules, with Amharic receipting throughout.

## Frequently Asked Questions

- **What currency and payment methods does EliteTeQ POS support in Dire Dawa?** EliteTeQ POS prices in ETB (Br) and records telebirr, card and cash against the same sale, so pilates studios businesses in Dire Dawa close the day on one set of reconciled totals instead of three. Tax invoices are produced to MOR requirements, and the till keeps working when the connection drops.
- **Is EliteTeQ POS suitable for pilates studios businesses in Dire Dawa?** Yes. Dire Dawa sits in Dire Dawa, and a POS here has to tie restocking to rail freight from Djibouti and receipt in Amharic. EliteTeQ POS is built for exactly that — ETB pricing, telebirr recorded against each sale, MOR-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 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.
- **Does it support equipment-based classes?** Yes, equipment-based classes such as Reformer, Cadillac, and Wunda Chair sessions are fully supported, with capacity limits configurable per equipment type. This means the system prevents overbooking based on the actual number of apparatus available in your studio rather than just room size. Clients booking online or at the front desk will only see available slots, and instructors always walk into a class with the right headcount for the equipment on hand.

## 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.
