Reminders

Welcome

Welcome to our second quarterly issue.  We hope you find this newsletter useful and valuable.  Please feel free to forward this on to your friends and colleagues.  One big change in our business is that we are now accepting payment by credit card.  We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express or Discover.  A few customers requested this option, so we decided to make it available to everyone.  We hope this will make your payment options even more convenient.

Client Spotlight

In this new section, we will highlight one of our business clients.  As a local company, we believe it is important for us to highlight each other’s products and services to increase market awareness and drive new opportunities for each other.

In this issue, we highlight one of our newest clients, Custom Credit Card Processing (CCCP), Inc. 

 

CCCP is launching their newest management and consulting division, "the merchant's voice". The merchant’s voice acts as your in-house specialist in conversations and negotiations with your current credit card processor. Utilizing more than 16 years of credit card processing experience, CCCP will put their expertise into action on behalf of your business to ensure that your current rates and fees are the best they can possibly be.

Call Marci at 703-739-2224, x 202 or visit CCCP's website at
www.cccpinc.com for more information.

Introducing our new Customer Referral Program

We are introducing a new customer referral program. It works simply like this.  If you refer us to a friend, associate, or colleague, and that referral results in a monthly maintenance contract, you get one free month of server maintenance.  It’s as simple as that.  The more referrals you make, the more free support you get.  So help us spread the word, and get free support.
