Operating in today’s "instant everything" business climate is a daunting task for businesses, large and small. Consumers demand that products or services be available instantly with a simple swipe, transfer or double-click. Unless you run a booth at a flea market, live in a third world country or are doing something illegal, you take plastic - period. It doesn’t matter if you are running an internet-based business or a brick and mortar retail establishment – you take plastic. It’s no longer an option; plastic currency is a fact of life and a cost of doing business. Chances are the bulk of your income was paid electronically in some form or fashion. Wow – that’s a lot.
What’s mind boggling is that so many decision makers are paying so little attention to a facet of their business that’s taking a fee from every single transaction, probably since establishing merchant retail services or an internet merchant account for your business is like sailing in unchartered waters. Understanding and comparing the maize of monthly costs, point-of-sale terminals, gateway security, statement fees, monthly minimums, transaction fees, and charge back fees can be overwhelming.
So, the question is – how much thought or effort was expended in deciding how these electronic payments would be managed? Chances are, if you operate a retail establishment, you opted to set up your merchant retail services account with the bank when you set up your checking account. Sound familiar? How convenient. Now let’s think about it. Is their ability to provide credit card processing for business really their primary focus? No, it is just one of hundreds of services they provide to their clients. Are you sure that this was the best decision for your business? Are you sure you got the best deal or was it just so convenient that you never gave it a second thought? If you operate an internet-based business, you probably opted for the internet merchant account offered as part of your web-hosting service. Again - really? Did you bother to compare their offering to that of a dedicated service that is totally focused on credit card processing for business? Or did you just click OK? As a business owner or manager, your primary responsibility as that of providing the absolute best product or service to your clients or customers while maximizing the return on someone’s investment, possibly your own. Every single penny counts.
