## Problems We Solve

- **Seven People Booked and You Only Have Six Reformers** — Pilates is not about room size — it is about apparatus. When booking is on paper or a basic calendar that does not know you have six reformers, you end up with a client standing in the doorway with nowhere to work, an instructor improvising, and someone leaving annoyed they will not come back from.
- **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.

## How EliteTeQ Solves It

- Set capacity by equipment type — reformer, chair, mat — so bookings can never exceed the apparatus you actually have. *Every client who books walks in to a working spot, and nobody is left standing in the doorway.*
- 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.*

## 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 Francistown

Francistown sits in North-East District and is Botswana's second city and a northern trade centre.

Francistown serves as the commercial centre for northern Botswana and a staging point on routes toward Zimbabwe and Zambia, which gives it cross-border shoppers and transit trade alongside local retail. Mining activity in the surrounding region contributes wage-driven month-end demand peaks.

The northern commercial centre serves routes toward Zimbabwe and Zambia, adding cross-border shoppers and transit trade to regional retail. Mining nearby adds month-end peaks. The binding constraint is multi-tender handling for customers arriving from several markets.

## Frequently Asked Questions

- **What currency and payment methods does EliteTeQ POS support in Francistown?** EliteTeQ POS prices in BWP (P) and records Orange Money, card and cash against the same sale, so pilates studios businesses in Francistown close the day on one set of reconciled totals instead of three. Tax invoices are produced to BURS requirements, and the till keeps working when the connection drops.
- **Is EliteTeQ POS suitable for pilates studios businesses in Francistown?** Yes. Francistown sits in North-East District, and a POS here has to handle cross-border shoppers and mining payday peaks. EliteTeQ POS is built for exactly that — BWP pricing, Orange Money recorded against each sale, BURS-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.
- **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.
- **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.

## 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.
