Back not so many years ago business relied upon newspaper advertisements, catalogs, and so on. We also processed credit cards using carbon paper and a charge plate (the thing that slid over the card, carbon paper, and metal plate). I still remember those days, but those days are long gone.

With new technology, it has been made easier to target the right audience using social media, networking media, and analytic technology. Processing credit cards is as easy as keying in the numbers on your smart phone or sliding/inserting the card in a small device attached to the smart phone. With the way we can process payments, and make sure that the right audience is reach to gain attention about the business makes it easier to conduct business.

The social media and networking media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and so on are some of the top ways to promote. The question becomes; with all the media that is out there, what works best? For the most part it all varies on how you promote, what you promote, and which one can gain the most attention for what you are trying to do.

That leads to the discussion point. Share with everyone what you do, what you have done, and what has worked and not worked and why. Share your thoughts and what you think works best and why. We look forward to helping everyone learn the ins and outs based on experience.
