ShootQ and Thirst Relief

February 9, 2010 – 10:23 pm

 

This is such a great cause.  I wanted to put up this little reminder.  Its a great idea because its a win for everyone that participates from the mentors to mentee to the people that get clean drinking water from the program.

 

If you got to the ThirstReleif signup you will be notified when it goes live.  I will also be posting links to some of our customers that are mentors to help them out.

 

Here is more about the auction

 

About The Auction

The mission of the Mentor Auction is twofold, to save lives and change the world by tapping into the incredible talent and generosity of the wedding industry and to create better and more successful photographers. To accomplish this goal we’ve asked some of the best and brightest in the wedding and portrait world to donate 90 minutes of their time and anything else they feel like giving to be auctioned off to the highest bidder!

100% of the proceeds directly benefit Thirst Relief International, saving lives and changing the world! Add to that the incredible wisdom and talent that is being shared in the one-on-one mentors sessions and you have better and more successful photographers! So, not only are lives being saved but the lives of many photographers are being made better! It’s truly a win win for everyone involved!

PPA Professional Photographers Of Colorado

January 18, 2010 – 11:58 am

I was invited to speak at PPOFC Professional Photographers of Colorado about credit card processing.  I discussed Tiered Pricing vs.  Cost Plus pricing which we use.  I also talked about the best places to get credit card processing.  Many merchants and photographers still believe they will get the best deal from their bank.  In reality this is the worst place to get a merchant account. When a merchant contacts us for a free quote and mentions they are with a major bank, we know that we are going to be able to save the merchant money. We talked about some of the solutions that photographers are often using in there businesses including using Contact Management Systems Like ShootQ.  

I had a great time meeting many of you and look forward to talking with you in the coming week.

PickPic and Authorize.net

December 18, 2009 – 2:16 am

This is the time of year when a lot of photographers have time to look at the products they use to run their business as well as sell to clients.  In the last few weeks, I have gotten a lot of calls for authorize.net accounts to integrate with PickPic.  PickPic is a great cart with a lot of options for professional photographers.  The customer service and product are second to none and are what you have come to expect from White House Custom Color.  If you just bought a PickPic cart and want the best rates on your credit card processing as well as great setup fee give us a call.

A few reasons to contact us first and not just authorize.net

1.  Our setup is cheaper

2.  Our processing rates are going to be cheaper

3.  You will get our customer service as well as authorize.net

No contracts (cancel if you find a better rate)

Low setup and application fee

Best rates in the business
