Here's how I look at my membership in the RDCEA.

1) At only $60 I will more than recover that in savings just from one vendor with whom I do business.

2) It is much cheaper than my membership in my local Chamber of Commerce and my membership in that organization doesn't do anything for me. No legal representation, no advertising, no promotion. Nothing, nada.

3) This is growing and will continue to grow and get stronger. I am glad to be in on the ground floor. I enjoy participating on the member forum to share ideas, successes, frustrations (and how to deal with frustrations).

4) It is just plain encouraging to know that there are many other independents out there who are doing the same thing I do day in and day out and are not going to give into our big box culture and let those mega stores rule the world.

Just one RDCEA Members comments.
Very well said and some great points for CE dealers to consider. There is strength in numbers.

To our valued members,

More now than in recent past history, independent retailers are faced with declining revenues. It is now more important than ever to look at ways to save on business expenses. One easy way is to review your credit card processing costs. The RDCEA has partnered with First National Merchant Solutions ‘FNMS’, a well known and well established merchant solution provider.

The RDCEA would like to introduce First National Merchant Solutions ‘FNMS’ and our account representative Mike Hoffman. The RDCEA has negotiated for our members some great credit card processing rates.

We encourage you to contact Mike Hoffman and work with him to review and compare your current processing fees with those that FNMS has negotiated for our members. Mike Hoffman is a very energetic individual with the best interests of our members in mind. We are convinced that once you have contacted Mike and worked with Mike, you will be very pleased that you did.

BILL PAYMENT

Over 500 million bill payments were made in person last year. The industry is expected to grow into a 25 billion industry with a growth rate of 20% per year. Approximately 30% of the US population lacks basic checking or savings accounts. This means that this segment of the US population needs a safe and convenient way to pay all their bills. These customers will seek you out.

Best Telecom can supply you with a program that will allow your customers to pay thousands of bills, from utilities to car payments to mortgage payments to credit card payments and everything in between. Your cost will be 90 cents/bill; the customer will pay an average of 2.00 dollars/bill. The math looks good, doesn't it?

Please remember we also have pins for wireless carriers including Verizon as well as LD cards.

Of course, all this can be done on your POS terminal or PC!
