SQUARE: A Service Provider's Best Friend

Have you gotten your SQUARE reader yet? If not, it is time to order one and get started using this valuable tool. In today's cashless society, it means the difference in immediate sales or no sale at all.

When customers see your products but have no cash with them they are likely to say they will go on your website to place an order, but reality is that only about 5% may actually do so. They simply get too busy and forget about ordering, or they decide that they really don't want to pay shipping and wait for the product to get to them. Strike when the iron is hot and have your SQUARE reader handy so that you can accept their credit card and send them home with your products. If they like what they have purchased, then chances are that they will visit your website later and make another purchase. So now you have two or more sales rather than nothing at all!

The SQUARE reader is easy to set up, free to order, and small to take with you everywhere you go. The bonus is that it works with PAYPAL and the fees are nice and low so all of your profits won't be headed to the credit card company. I found that in about 10 minutes you can have a simple business set up that will work well. If you wish to order the chip reader version of SQUARE, there is a fee, but at $49, isn't it worth it to make sure you are protected from fraud?
