Rentals & the storefront
Rental inventory has one job that spreadsheets are terrible at: knowing, on any given weekend, exactly how many you can promise. Florio runs rentals off a single pooled ledger that the storefront and your proposals both draw from, so the answer is always honest.
Product mockup; data illustrative.
One pool, honest numbers
Availability is computed by quantity, not by tracking individual chairs around the warehouse. The pool counts what you own, subtracts what is promised, and builds in turnaround so an item is not offered before it is back and ready.
- Storefront and proposals share the pool. A public checkout can never promise something a proposal already holds, because they read the same numbers.
- Turnaround is built in. Items coming back from the wash or a repair are unavailable until they are ready, automatically.
Soft holds and firm holds
Not every hold is equal, so Florio keeps two kinds:
- Soft hold: a proposal awaiting signature reserves the quantity without locking it away forever.
- Firm hold: a paid booking makes it firm. Availability updates the moment money changes hands.
That distinction is what lets you quote aggressively without double-booking the gala.
A storefront that sells for you
The public storefront takes customer accounts and guest carts, checks live availability, prices delivery by distance, and takes the deposit while you are at dinner. Monday starts with bookings instead of voicemail.
A condition trail on every unit
Each unit carries a condition history from checkout to return. Damage is photographed, billed to the reservation, and queued for repair, instead of quietly absorbed into the cost of doing business.
