  Despite the company's rapid growth, Kyrus management wants to maintain a small business approach when it comes to its customers, says Mike Todd, business solutions executive for Kyrus."We believe that being the only company our customers call is a benefit," says Todd."The complexities of a POS system are best managed when there is only one entity to contact when problems arise."Todd makes the comparison to players on opposing teams wearing different colored uniforms."Unless everyone is working together to solve a problem, you need the referee in the striped shirt to do it for you."A convenience store chain, for example, wants one point of contact for its POS hardware and software problems.The store manager doesn't want to call four or five different numbers to get the POS system up and running again.How does this impact the VAR channel?"It is redefining distribution and solution selling," explains Todd."It is no longer good enough to manage only pieces of a solution."
  
  With a commitment to key vertical markets and a customer-centric approach, what does Kyrus see for the future?"POS will continue to transform," says Todd."Exciting changes will impact the channel, including virtual retailing and POS systems, with very few hardware components."

  ...
  The agenda listed meeting participants by first names only, including nominees for the organization's slate of officers: "Pres. - Mike (Todd).Sec. - Jes (Stafford).Treas. - Victoria (Padgett)."
  
  Stafford, an architect-to-be who works for Todd's Premiere Contractors, made sure the meeting stayed on track, prodding his boss to stick to the agenda.
  
  Over beers and Cokes, members discussed marketing materials, paperwork for nonprofit status, crime and law enforcement and the possibilities for a neighborhoodwide festival next year.
  
  Attendance was light, which Todd attributed to the approaching holiday season.Participants also included Kudzu's owners, Steve and Cathy Edmundson; furniture maker Will McGown and his wife, Gigi McGown; Sleeping Cat Studios operator Jim Esposito and his wife, Rosemary Falk; Memphis Police Department West Precinct representative Janet Stewart and officer Charles Hill, a bicycle patrolman.
  
  A presentation on Center City's new medical center district master plan did not materialize as planned, but Todd passed around a copy of the plan, opened to the page most pertinent to The Edge.
  
  "We are recognized by name; that's a start, anyway," said Todd.
  
  Says the plan: "The diverse character of the neighborhood and the self-invested nature of recent improvements have given The Edge a growing identity. . . . The vision for The Edge neighborhood is a combination of work, live and play urban neighborhood grounded by substantial, atypical residential housing."
  
  Specific design recommendations are:
  
  Infill open/abandoned areas with buildings that provide ground-floor retail/commercial opportunities with second- and third-floor residential opportunities.
  
  ...
  Todd said Center City's final plan reflected what neighborhood leaders would like to see.
  
  Todd came into the neighborhood six years ago as owner of an old Hudson dealership at 629 Monroe.Known as the Premiere Palace Ballroom, the storefront space offers party and event rentals.In the rear are the millwork shop of Todd's contracting business and studio/living spaces for artists.
  
  With partner James Dickey of Airways Electric, Todd bought and renovated a 1920s-era auto supply company at 598 Monroe, across from Kudzu's.
  ...
  The building had been condemned, said Todd."I rode by and saw a "Do not inhabit" sign and said, 'I have to buy that building.' "
  
  Because the roof was caved in and the interior was badly deteriorated, the partners saved the exterior walls and essentially built a steel-framed building inside it.A Center City Development Corp. loan helped with the renovation.
  
  They restored the front showroom and its street facade to original condition, down to the detail of painting "Equipment Service Parts" over the old parts counter window and "Office" over the old office doorway.
  ...
  Todd also has ownership interests in 656 Madison and two buildings just west of Danny Thomas, 336 and 340 Monroe, and 343 and 345 Madison, site of Club Liquid.
  ...
  Todd and Stafford have been placed on the board of New Pathways Inc., a community development corporation that is serving as a redevelopment clearinghouse for neighborhoods such as Peabody-Vance, to the south of The Edge community.

  Mike Todd of Monroe Associates LLC said parking requirements would make it harder to convert property to uses that fit in with proposed new zoning districts.
  
  A grandfather clause would allow nonconforming uses, such as a body shop and a light manufacturing plant, to stay put in the entertainment district.But the requirement that new businesses have parking could pose a major disincentive for redevelopment, Todd contended.

  At 287 Madison, Mike Todd of Monroe Associates LLC, is renovating the three-story structure for a possible condominium development.
  
  Nestled between the 385-unit Echelon at The Ballpark apartment complex that opened in 2001 and directly across the street from the Downtown School, the 44,000-square-foot building was the last remaining piece of the redevelopment puzzle around AutoZone Park.
  
  Todd says construction will be done in phases, starting with a 29-space underground parking garage and $150,000 in facade improvements, including restoring 18 original windows on the second and third floors and placing an awning out front.
  
  "It will have a nice impact as you come down (Madison) and into Downtown," Todd says. "It is very well located and it offers a lot of flexibility in design."
  
  Todd is counting on the aesthetic improvements to make the building more attractive to future developers, although he says he could move forward with a condominium project of his own.
  
  "We'll see what type of bump in interest we get from creating this facade," he says.

  POS and the Web - Myth vs. Reality - [Cached Version]

  The same is true for Kyrus, Taylors, SC, notes Mike Todd, vice president, indirect channels.
  ...
  Todd, too, considers integration an impediment to more widespread rollout of Web-centric technology.The Kyrus' executive believes insufficient attention has been paid to multi-channel retailing (MCR), which he claims is not a future phenomena, but is already here to stay."With MCR, you must account for Web transactions as well as store transactions, kiosk transactions, catalogue transactions, home delivery, wireless more," he insists."This calls for tightly integrated systems."
  
  Conversely, Dumac's McCarthy does not view the "separateness" of Web-based solutions as the real problem.In-store POS and online shopping carts are "two different animals," he says, noting that "when consumers [put items in the latter], they take their time and do research-it's like browsing in the store.
  ...
  Mike Todd, Kyrus
  ...
  Perhaps most significantly, Todd has deduced from his observations of integration snafus that architecting POS applications for future Web enablement now, rather than later, will be critical to success down the road.He believes that even retailers who have not, for one reason or another, considered implementing Web-based POS technology will demand access to it as consumer interest in online commerce grows and financial advantages become more evident.
  
  Prospects' queries, as well as the overall trend toward MCR, have also hammered home the importance of developing Web-based POS software with a wide range of expanded capabilities."Loyalty programs will extend to all reaches, using the same database," Todd asserts.
