ADVERTORIAL
The story behind Bikedesk Bikedesk is run by bike enthusiasts Brian Jakobsen, and brothers Rasmus and Lasse Melbye, who are experienced software developers and dedicated bike riders. The trio combined forces to develop a digital point of sale
system designed specifically for bike shops, perfectly tailored for handling workshop management, sales, and everything a bike shop needs. Every feature has been built to save time, increase productivity, help make more money, and improve the customer experience. “At Bikedesk, we firmly believe that we are more than just a POS system,” said co-founder Rasmus Melbye. “Our main mission is to increase in-store efficiency and breathe life into bike shops by empowering staff to be active in the workshop and on the floor without all the hassle, while providing customers with the personalized guidance they need. That is what customer experiences are all about today.” Bikedesk was founded after Jakobsen and the Melbye brothers noticed that a number of their local bike shops were struggling with outdated and impractical systems for managing their workshops and inventory. After speaking with several stores, the trio began to establish ideas on how to improve the efficiency of bike shops. With their background in software and engineering, and their passion for bikes, the founders make it their mission to create their own state-of-the-art online system, purpose-built for the bike industry.
Their idea was for an all-in-one checkout system, which has now been developed into a holistic POS system that is currently helping hundreds of bike shops world wide.
