Understanding Merchant Account Fees
Aug 23rd
Every business needs to be able to take credit in order to survive. Let’s face it, America runs on credit! Not setting up a merchant account can cost you many potential customers. So why don’t you have one?
It can be confusing, and overwhelming when trying to set up an account when you are facing unfriendly merchant account fees. Let’s try to clear up some confusion with some simple explanation of these complicated fees. We will only discuss a few fees here.
Monthly Minimum Fee – A monthly minimum fee is not an extra fee but rather a minimum amount that the processor or merchant account provider needs to have in fees. As long as your credit card fees meet or exceed this minimum, you are not charged any extra fees. However, if your monthly fees are less than this minimum, then you are charged the difference up to the minimum. For example, if you have $20 in fees in a given month, and your account has a $25 monthly minimum on it, you will be charged an additional $5 to meet the monthly minimum. A monthly minimum is a reasonable fee, although sometimes you can get it reduced somewhat if you expect your monthly volume to be low.
Monthly Statement/Support/Service Fee – The monthly fee is charged by your processor or merchant service provider and is a fixed fee, regardless of the number of transactions you have. This fee provides you with a monthly paper statement as well as any 800 toll free customer assistance/support you may need on your account. Usually this fee is around $10 per month but can be as high as $15. This is a reasonable fee and it is normal to have this fee on every merchant account.
Internet Gateway Fee – This only applies if you are using an Internet Payment Gateway, such as Authorize.net. It does not apply if you are using software or a terminal. The gateway fee is a monthly fee assessed by the gateway provider, and is usually billed directly by the gateway provider, although sometimes it can be billed through your merchant account by your processor. The gateway fee can be as high as $30 per month. Sometimes there can be an additional per transaction fees that the gateway provider may charge. This is in addition to any transaction fees charged by your merchant account provider.
Reprogramming Fee – This is charged if and when you need to reprogram a piece of existing equipment or software. It does take time and effort to program a terminal, as well as software, and as a result this fee is sometimes charged by merchant providers and/or terminal or software vendors.
Understanding merchant account fees helps to understand merchant accounts and why you should get one. Don’t let fees get in the way of something that could help your business grow.

Use The Latest Data Storage To Safeguard Your Records
Jul 17th
Computers are wonderful in the modern business world and at home. Millions of us have one kind of computer or another. There are now desk top computers, lap top computers, i phones and everything in between. Every few months another advance is made in minimizing the size of computers.
Where companies used to have many individual and separate computers for employees to work on, now they have advanced networks of joined computers. Everyone in the company can share a common body of information.
Baby Boomers have seen a tremendous change in technology, including computers, in the last 50 years. It used to be very common to lose all your computer memory in a thunder storm when the power went out. All that information had to be re entered when the computer was “brought Back up”.
All the work and research that we do, we want saved for future use. Every letter we write, or proposal we submit for approval, needs to be saved for future reference. All of our back up material needs to be saved. We input and scan numerous documents and photos which all need to be saved.
Now computers can be linked into company wide networks with system administrators to oversee every thing. Large companies have computer experts on staff to keep the network running smoothly.
These systems when administered properly keep all the network data safe from viruses, power outages, weather disasters and computer hackers. They have security systems as part of the data storage system, so information is safe from theft or tampering by outsiders. Computer system security is a big concern because of computer hackers and industrial espionage.
SAN stands for storage area networks and NAS stands for network attached storage. The latest tools and technology using these systems assure the safe data storage that everyone needs and wants. These new data storage systems have replaced DAS because they are safer and more secure.
The SAN and NAS systems available to business computer networks have been improving rapidly. Companies can choose the system that works best for them from the provider they feel the most comfortable using. There are great guides and tutorials available to help systems administrators choose the right system and have the most success managing company data storage. Implementing the correct hardware is key to safe, successful data storage management.It takes a wide variety of tools, utilities and freeware to manage storage environments.

Marketing Techniques/Tips: Stick To The Basics
Jul 1st
Effective marketing is critical to the success of any business. No matter how wonderful the product or service is if people don’t know about it, sales will be dismal. There are many different marketing techniques/tips that can be used, but the concept of all of them are the same; reach as many people as possible and convince them to buy what is offered.
Over the years marketing has become more complex than ever, but with the many advertising mediums available it is now much easier to reach huge numbers of prospective customers. By implementing some effective marketing techniques/tips, including some that are very basic, business owners can run very profitable campaigns.
When preparing an advertising campaign it is critical that you know your audience. Determine who would be interested in your product or service and take the time to completely understand their needs. Running a campaign that targets the right group of people will be very likely to generate a successful return.
One of the most important marketing techniques is to work with other people. Some very creative ideas are born from brainstorming with others. While you may have a good idea to begin with, it can turn into a great campaign with the help of other creative people.
Always remain focused on the strategy as it is the driving force of successful marketing promotions. Testing has shown that the strategy is usually the most important criterion for a campaign that converts to sales. Never focus solely on price. The idea is to create a strategy that has so much value that the price is of little significance. Price wars between marketers will lead to lower profitability for all parties and could result in a company’s downfall.
Once a campaign is started it is critical to do some split testing. The most common split test is to simultaneously test two different versions of an ad. It doesn’t matter if you are using a post card, email, or a webpage; create two versions and determine which one produces the best results. Split testing is absolutely essential in order to improve a campaign’s performance.
For long term success, create value for your customers after the sale. Spend as much time and energy after the sale as you do before the sale and you will build lasting relationships with your clients. It takes a great deal of effort to get a new customer, so it makes sense to do everything in your power to keep them. Keep in contact with them and learn what their needs are. Once you know more about your customers you can offer products and services that will fit their needs.
If you want to find greater success in your business, implement these very basic and proven marketing techniques/tips. These techniques are being used by successful marketers on a regular basis, adding to the success of businesses everywhere.
Do You Want A Netbook? You Do! Here’s Why
Jun 17th
Take a look around you, how many people are equipped with a Netbook? Ill bet its quite a few if you are in an office, on campus, on a bus, a train, or plane. You can clearly see that netbooks are coming out of nowhere to become a very popular choice for many individuals.
Netbooks are so new that some people might be asking, what is a netbook?
A netbook is a mini laptop. They usually have screens of about 10 inches or less, they run on the Windows XP or Windows Vista operating system, and they usually sell for around $400 or less. The number one use of a netbook is to keep its owner connected to the internet and their work or school. They can do this wherever and whenever they need to access the internet. It is a really cool idea.
It was about a year and a half ago when we first saw this type of laptop computer gain some traction with consumers. Although hard to believe, the netbook is becoming the fastest growing segment of the laptop industry and is fully expected to reach over 140 million units sold by the year 2013. Wow!
Honestly, I see two reasons why the netbook industry has grown so fast over the last year or so. They are a hot commodity for students and any individual who does a lot of traveling for work. They are perfect for both individuals, but why?
Size
As you can probably already know from the above paragraphs, the netbook is very small and compact. The display on these machines is at the most, 10 inches. They are also very lightweight. They probably weigh around 2 pounds. They are super compact so they can be transported very easily.
Portable
As stated in the last paragraph, because a netbook is so super small, it is extremely portable.
Sturdiness
Some people think that because these machines are so small that they are a piece of junk. That is simply not true! They are designed to be extra sturdy and tough. They can easily handle hard knocks and even a drop or two and they will still be working fine.
Battery Life
Because netbooks are so much smaller than a regular laptop, you will get much more juice out of your battery. Face it; no one wants to be dragging a power cord around with them. They need a portable computer that can stay charged for a long time.
The Price
The number one reason why netbooks are so popular and make the perfect laptop for a student or businessperson is because they are very affordable. Yes, students are on a budget, so this makes it a perfect solution for them. Many times, employees have a desktop and laptop at their office. Netbooks are so cheap that they can afford one of them just for travel. As I stated earlier, for less than $400 you can pick up a nice little netbook.
As you can clearly see, a netbook is an amazing choice when selecting an affordable laptop. You really need to head down to your local electronics store and check them out. They are awesome!
Laptops: Which is Better?
Jun 16th
When it comes to laptops you have many possible choices to buy. The biggest quest you may ask yourself is which company makes the best laptop. Most commonly Dell and HP are compared. So which one is better? We will take a look at both.
Well first lets start by saying that both companies offer laptops with specific features and styles to meet your needs. You can find mini, slim, ultra-portable, everyday use and high performance laptops within both companies. Dell offers four major families which include the Inspiron Mini, Inspiron, Studio and Alienware/ XPS. The Inspiron Mini laptops are great for those who are just looking to use the Internet or e-mail. Its great for kids as it is only about 8.9″ – 12.1″ and starts at 2.86 lbs. This is the smallest and least expensive option with Dell. The next family, Insprion, is the everyday use computer. It measures at 15.6″ and priced a bit higher than the Mini’s but still a low to moderately priced family of laptops. The studio line offers a balance of style and functionality. Those styles tend to be more moderately to higher priced. The last family is Alienware/ XPS which is highly known for its super fast performance and is built specifically for the ultimate gaming experience.
HP has four similar families which include their Mini, Everyday, Ultra-Portable and Performance and Entertainment laptops. The Dell Mini may seem higher priced at first glance, however, the computer itself starts with a faster processor speed, more memory and larger hard drive. The Dell Inspiron compared to HP’s laptops in the Everyday Computing family starts at a lower price and Dell’s high end of that group is less than HP’s.
Dell’s Studio family starts with more memory and larger hard drives and is great for the music lover as it comes with 4 watt 2.0 SRS audio and discrete tweeters. Whereas Hp does not. The last group, which for both companies is known for their high performance. Dell’s Alienware is widely known as being the overall best gamers laptop for its awesome graphics, high speed and is available in stylish and unique colors. HP’s performance models memory and video card doesn’t even come close.
You can look for yourselves, but overall it seems that Dell has the upper hand in laptops.

Why Do You Need An SEO Company?
May 31st
Internet marketing started out slow but it has evolved exponentially over the past 30+ years. Today’s internet marketing is pretty incredible. Several companies have come out that have networked all the major components needed to get your search engine marketing underway, putting your site in front of a flood of traffic.
The thing about SEO components are that there are companies that outsource just about every aspect. Take article submissions for example, just one of many concepts that work incredibly well to build back-links to your site. Submitting them in the right SEO format, to the right high PR site, and in a way that looks natural, consists of first writing the article to SEO standards, submitting it to directories, and continuing to release new articles to build up your back-links. The SEO company will take the major components of their search engine marketing plan and network them together, then plug your site into this network of resources.
In short, they do all the heavy lifting in marketing your site online and the amount they charge you is nominal compared to the money you will generate from their efforts. What would normally take you a lot of time to learn, apply, test, and of course spending time researching the latest changes in SE algorithms, writing articles, blurbs, blogs, and various other back link creation tools, can be done in a few clicks of your mouse on an SEO marketing service/site. You pay them a nominal fee to propagate everything, you just supply them the keyword and site, what your goals are and they take it from there. You spend your time building your business while they spend equal amounts of time building your marketing! These companies are always on the up and up and know how the search engines tick. They constantly update their methods and the best part is you don’t even need to know a thing about online marketing to use them!
Even experts in SEO, SEM, and Marketing in general use an SEO company to maintain and put their site on the map. Why? Because it’s an investment that always pays off several fold. It’s about time leveraging as well as hiring a group of experts in their trade (SEO/SEM) so you know your time is well “spent”.
If your brand new to the web then an SEO company is the best thing that can happen to your site. It’s important that your site is marketed correctly, built correctly (for EOot to win an award for prettiest or coolest looking site!), and maintained correctly. So if your asking "why do I need an SEO company? Then you should really be asking yourself, "If I want to be successful in marketing my site online, why wouldn’t I need an SEO company?"
The very infrastructure of the internet makes hiring a company with such a valuable service inexpensive, yet powerful. An SEO company can take your site to the top of the search engine rankings, and although you spend money to get there, the money you make will more than cover expenses plus a nice profit.
I Will Tell You About Rapid Prototyping
Apr 11th
What is rapid prototyping? Wikipedia says it “is the automatic construction of physical objects using solid freeform fabrication.” Confused? Well, unless you’re an engineer, you may have no idea what that means.
Remember those Mold-A-Rama machines? You would stick in a quarter and watch the machine pump plastic into a mold, and then it would spit out colorful, 3D models of lions, rhinos, gorillas, tigers, dinosaurs and or even an Abraham Lincoln bust?
Yeah? Well picture that in your mind when thinking of rapid prototyping – sans the burning plastic smell of course. Rapid prototyping is similar in concept. It takes an idea and spits out a 3D image of that same idea. It’s a great resource for those who need to see their idea in reality before going to production. Some say rapid prototyping machines are the machines that can copy anything.
Rapid Prototyping is used for production parts, models, prototypes, and even artists use them for sculpting. Rapid prototyping is used heavily in the automobile industry and with various consumer products. It’s also used for aerospace, business machines, medical equipment, engine parts, architecture scale models, academic reasons, and in the government and military.
Rapid prototyping today is done through printers. These printers will take a digital image, usually from CAD (computer aided design) or some other animation software, and basically scans the design then prints an actual 3D prototype of that image – something you can feel and touch – not unlike the Mold-A-Rama machines. Designers can get a better grasp on their ideas and catch errors quickly, thus, reducing costs by making changes to designs early on.
Unlike the Mold-A-Rama, the rapid prototyping copiers don’t just use plastic and they can make copies of much more than animals. They utilize many materials to create almost any shape and size.
What about large models, you ask? How does a relative small rapid prototyping printer make copy an image and print of a life-sized model of a car? Good question. Large models are usually printed in smaller segments. After they are printed off, the designer will put them together to see the whole picture.
The Mold-A-Ramas could finish its plastic animals and the busts of United State presidents’ faces in just a few minutes. In comparison, however, rapid prototyping is not nearly as quick. Depending on the model’s size and complex design, and the machine’s functionality, rapid prototyping can take a few hours to a few days.
There are a lot of competing technologies. The differences are in the way they build or create parts. Some use melting and softening to create parts. Others use liquids and are cured with myriad technologies.
3D rapid prototyping printers are becoming more common. There are some small ones that can fit into an office. They are priced at $15,000-$25,000. But don’t’ get them confused with Rapid Prototyping machines. 3D rapid prototyping printers’ range of materials is very limited. Rapid Prototyping machines are typically more accurate and usually produce better finishes. Rapid prototyping machines cost $45,000 and up.
