Nifty ideas you can use to build a better business


Foreign Fees

Before you take off on an international business trip, check your credit cards. Some cards charge a foreign exchange fee (usually 2 to 3 percent of your purchase) when you use your card in another country. Call your card issuer to ask about the fee. And beware that Discover cards are  for domestic use only. To find a card that doesn't charge a foreign exchange fee, check out www.bankrate.com.

  • www.soniacoleman.com -- Provided by graphic artist Sonia Coleman. Delivers templates, presentation tips and PowerPoint tutorials.
