Customer Spotlight Tailgate-N-Go

3 minute read

This recipe for success may not be traditional, but it's working out well for the Johnson family. Inspiration for their small business came in the form of a family camping trip, some unseasoned hamburgers, and a side of disorganization.

“It's really funny how we came up with the idea,” said Ron Johnson, owner of Tailgate N Go. “I went camping with my daughter and my son. My daughter says, 'I'll bring everything.' We start making hamburgers, and she forgot a spatula, she forgot the salt …”

Ron noticed the campers cooking next to them were loaded with bags and boxes. Everything was a mess. He went home that weekend inspired to devise a better way.

A year and half later, the Johnson's business was born. Their flagship product is the Tailgate N Go, a portable, modular outdoor kitchen and dry box that you can take anywhere.

They recently made a serious upgrade — from the past to the future — by trading paper invoices for Vital POS®. Getting Vital POS was a “huge relief for us”.

“When you're starting your business, you're watching every dollar that you bring in,” Ron said. “Using Vital Mobile was just so easy and so simple.”
