Customer service via Social Media 12th August 2015 5:44 PM I think that Twitter may carry additional value, as it has limited number of characters, this way you can keep the issues short and to the point. It's much better for the quicker communication! Is offering a free product a good way to generate more business? 10th August 2015 8:58 PM I also think that what's important is to draw a line between what you're offering for free, and what needs to be paid for. I believe it's better to give away an ebook that's entirely free, and then charge for some services as a follow up, as opposed to a model, where you can only have one part for free, only to realise that you need to buy access for the remainder of the book half way through...

Apart from the simple buy now buttons, you can create an authorisation to collect payments directly from the debit/credit card of your customer. It can be recurring or a one-off one. Paypal will also be recognisable for all your customers, so they will be happy to pay using this service. However, there are some downsides: Paypal currency conversion is usually quite costly, and their fees will take some percentage of your gains, so you need to work that in your calculations. From the legal point of view, you should also make sure that your T&Cs clearly state how the payment is going to be made and how the cancellation procedure will work. This is very important to avoid confusion and possible litigation. Let me know if you have any questions about the payment. I can also help you sort your legal paperwork on the website - just ask!
