The Mission Goes On

Greetings, Agents of the Digital World Pay Universe! 

 

This is an awesome Monday of an awesome week of the awesome month of June 2015!It is our very first June in this business -- we just have two more months to complete our first year. It has been a year of learning and growth and, the past 6 weeks or so, of picking up serious steam! 

 

Great call last night --  I hope you had a chance to listen to it: the energy is coming into the business now and it's really mixing it up. Agents are learning that merchants are getting a raw deal out there because they don't know any better,  they're not informed and a greedy salesman  has gotten hold of them and signed them up on something that's really not in their best interest. 

 

That's where we Digital World Pay independent Agents come in and can make a big difference. Love Louie's question on his business card: 

 

I will pay you $500 if you can beat my rate. 

 

That's a great way to look at it: as opposed to you trying to show the merchant that you're better than him,  get him to try to show you that he's his rates better than yours. He will be surprised when the proposal gets back -- they always are --  and at that point you know what,  the DWP system works itself.... the paperwork works itself because a merchant  who's on the trail of saving himself cash flow out every month is a merchant who's going to figure out the paperwork.   All you need to do is facilitate the process.

Here's a great tip in from Agent Brian Hata;   think you'll enjoy it if nothing else just because it's such a different take on checking out equipment.

 

"Hey, just letting you know I found out a neat way to check out a business from a computer: If you go to google maps and click on a business, sometimes it will have a "see inside" option which will allow you to view inside the store. Once you're there you can navigate towards the cash register area and look around to see what kind of equipment they are using. It saves a lot of meandering time and you know what the merchant is working with before you even meet them. I hope this technique helps out. "

Your mission between now and Oct. 2015:  give out FREE EMV TERMINALS!!   

 Merchants don't know about the EMV deadline:  check these stats-- you can see that 2015 is only the beginning -- by 2017 only 53% of merchants will be compliant so this mission will go on and on:
