Nifty ideas you can use to build a better
business
Outer Space
You may own a home-based business. But you don’t have meet with clients in your dining room. Instead, book meeting space in business centers or executive suites. Take Regus Business Centers for example. The company has 700 locations worldwide where you can rent an executive suite, a video conferencing room or a meeting room – and pay only for the time you use the facility. Go to www.regus.com to take a virtual tour or book a room online.
Customer Warning
Small retailers need to protect themselves against credit card fraud – without alienating customers. It’s a fine line that requires finesse. One tactic: Post your credit card verification policies so consumers know what to expect. For instance, place a sign near your register that states you require a picture ID. Or inform customers that their signatures will be checked. Posting your policies lets customers know that they’re not being singled out as suspicious when you ask to verify their credit card.
