Accepting Online Payments
E-Commerce Made Easy For Small Businesses, Startups & Sole Traders
This ebook "how-to" guide from FishesEye Publishing presents a choice of low-cost, low-hassle ways to sell alld kinds of tangible and digital goods, products, merchandize and services via the internet. An independent, expert overview and review of the available options, for all creatives, authors, and would-be self-publishers, it provides easy-to-read advice and decision criteria to help you:
 | Select the payment service(s) you need - PayPal (and the alternatives!!), plus credit card merchant accounts... |
| Set up instant online Buy Now and Shopping Cart buttons |
| Leverage “Plug-and-Pay” digital file hosting and download services such as ClickBank, PayLoadz, Lulu, Google Checkout and TradeBit |
| Exploit powerful marketing tools provided with your new services |
| Automate links and listings with marketplaces such as ebay, and search engine directory listings such as Froogle and Google Base |
| Find the most cost-effective ways to sell your products and wares using the web. |
By reading this boot-strap guide you will be able to:
| Boost your sales by offering your clients instant purchases 24x7, and flexible choice of payment methods including echecks, credit and debit cards, bank transfers... |
| Capture "impulse sales" - first impressions count, attention is limited, and initial enthusiasm soon wanes if your clients can't buy straight away. |
| Save yourself hundreds or even thousands of dollars - by avoiding services and service levels that you don't yet need, and keeping your staff costs for admin, sales, support and IT to a minimum |
| Sell "risky" products, including adult wares (as prohibited by PayPal's Acceptable Usage Policy), by using one of the alternative payment services. |
A quick-start guide is packed with interactive screenshorts and hyperlinks to the websites of e-commerce products and services that are suitable for all kinds of small businesses - whether you sell "intangible" digital goods or info-products, such as software, shareware, ebooks, images or MP3 music files - or real-world goods - soap, cars or cigars...
Using this manual as a jumping-off point it's possible to set up an account with an online payment provider and to start receiving payments via the internet in a matter of hours, at low or even no cost!
| Develop a second income and new skills, in your spare time, with little or no financial investment. |
| Run your own small business from home, or from anywhere with an internet connection. |
| Avoid wasting time and money on traps and dead-ends. Beware so-called online tutorials and reviews - many lead you to their own products, or to commission-related affiliates. |
| Don't fall for expensive and complex corporate e-commerce solutions that you don't yet need. |
