1,000 Donations in Your Business

80% of all businesses in America give to charity. Personally, I think that number is incorrect. It's too small. Out of the thousands of companies I have interacted with, 2 did not give to charity. 2.

They give off the bottom line. Why, I have no idea. Actually, I do. They just don't know. That is some of the most expensive money they can donate, too. They had to work for it, advertise for it, hire for it, sell for it, close for it, and fulfill for it. Then they paid for lights, lease, water, insurance, and payroll. With what was left over, they could have put it back into their business, or they could have taken it home to their families, but they gave some to charity.

That's not Blood Money... That's Blood, Sweat, and Tears Money.

I tell people daily, "Quit giving money to charity... Let Visa/MC do it."

That's it. Every time someone swipes a card in your store, or goes online and buys off your website, you could be donating to charity. Without saying "Would you like to add a dollar?' and all the other things that drive your customers crazy. Really, the money is built in. Go here and see if it is a good fit for you.
