Selling Payments and POS:
Payments play a key role in today’s POS industry. Most POS solutions are tied to specific processing, or the POS solution is owned by the processor. Sometimes the processor will offer the POS for free just to get the card processing business. These processing rates are high and result in higher-than-normal monthly processing costs for the merchant who then is struggling with maintaining profit margins. The approach of selling processing that includes a POS solution is not new but selling a combined solution where the included processing is NOT overpriced is a concept that is advantageous to the merchant. Our ability to represent several pos solutions that are not tied to high-cost processing is what sets us aside. As a Sales Representative for these products a key point of the presentation is to point out these tactics and differences and how FREE can be more expensive to the merchant in the long run.
