We are expanding

Despite the not so good sales during the last quarter of 2007 and the first quarter of 2008, I’m glad that our cellphone business is picking up again. We had good sales since the start of the second quarter and we hope that sales would stay that way.

Since business was doing well, we were able to expand our business and we now carry MAC notebooks and digital cameras and video cameras as part of our merchandise. The sales from the laptop is the one that is bringing us good revenue since our price is really much lower compared to the one sold in malls and we offer the same package and warranty as what the authorized dealer is offering.

But we noticed that a lot of our customers are using their credit card to make their purchases and this is the mode of payment that most of our customers prefer as they don’t want to carry big amount of cash when they shop. And since we don’t have a credit card machine, we sometimes loose sales because the customers will cancel their order once they found out that we can’t accept credit card payments.

So my brother and I have been discussing ways on how can we generate more sales and since we expanded our business, we might as well get a merchant account so we will be able to accept credit cards as payment. I know this will not be a difficult thing to do so my brother, who makes the decision for our business, will look into it further so we can have this service as soon as possible.
