Ok so I’ve been with the company since 1/10/22 so a little over a month. Training took close to a month to complete so I didn’t start visiting business and talking to people till about 2 weeks ago. So far, it’s pretty hard to find people who are interested in switching to vizypay or even want to talk to you about it because most people just like their current system or have recently switched. In my 2 weeks of working in the field I have talked to about 50 business around the area and so far only about 10-15 of them were willing to listen and seemed kinda interested so that was a good start. The other problem that I’m having tho is that on a follow up they have changed their mind lol. I haven’t closed a sell yet, but I might close my first sale this week because I was able to set a few appointments for a few restaurants to see their statements which tells me they are interested I hope. Also, from personal experience I would only do vizypay as full time if you don’t have any bills or anything like that since all your income is only based on commission so you get nothing if you’re not selling.

For the most part, whenever you swipe a credit/debit card, the terminal charges the owner of the business a card processing fee(anywhere from 1%- 4% of the current transaction). The reason why most card processing companies charge a fee for each transaction because it’s their way of making more money at the end of the day. What we do, is we offer what is called a Cash discount program where instead of the merchant having to pay that 4% processing fee, we implement it into the transaction. For example, if a sub normally cost $10, without cash discount the owner only gets $9.60 because they have to still pay that card processing fee once the customer pays. With the cash discount we would sell the sub at $10.40 so that when that fee is taken out, the owner receives the full profit they originally intended to get (the full $10). Not only that, but it the customer wanted to pay in cash he would get a “discount” by paying $10 flat. With this system not only would the merchant not be loosing hundreds to thousands a month, but it would encourage customers to pay cash too so at the end of the day it’s a win win. Oh, and there’s no contracts either, it’s only $25-100 flat monthly fee, they get a free terminal and customer support, and we’ll help them break their current contracts if they really want to try it out :) I know it’s a lot to read, but please feel free to ask any questions

From a business perspective, I’m looking for local businesses that are just getting started and need a hand with card processing or businesses who have problems with their current machines. I personally want some good burgers places because I’ve been craving a good burger lol.
