Dr. Kevin Nunley's Biz Tip:
Now is the Time to Start Taking Credit Cards
The huge increase in home-based businesses, Internet firms, and mail order operations have forced banks to extend merchant card services to smaller businesses. A year ago my bank wouldn't even think of giving a merchant card account to a home-based biz, today they do it every day.
More and more people and businesses are using personal and company credit cards to speed up purchases. You can grab a great deal of business from folks who want to buy now!
Surveys show that while the economy remains strong, consumers are weary of a coming downturn. When money gets tight, many people and businesses purchase with easy consumer credit.
There are thousands of merchant account opportunities available. Costs vary widely. Find one that doesn't charge you a fat monthly fee for equipment rental. File orders using computer software. Look for deals with low monthly rates. Also note the percentage the bank takes from each sale you make.
