I have been asked all the time, what is a preprinted busienss check? These checks are preprinted with your company and bank information. You can use your accounting software to print the “Pay to” and “amount” data. The Preprinted business checks are desinged for your software and is ideal for any printing ina low or high volume of checks.
Their are two different types that is most popular. It is the check on top and check in middle. Check on top is more for quickbooks business checks, where as checks in middle is for peachtree and other accounting programs. They are available in so many styles and colors, with different security features. Each check, must be check 21 compliance by law.

When you buy a busienss accounting program. Its always important to make sure your software is up to date. If you dont keep your software updated, it could cause you to have accounting mistakes with payroll, taxes or something else with the program. Peachtree is very easy to keep updated and so is quickbooks. While your checking to make sure your program is updated, what about your Quickbooks business checks? Do you have enough of them.
If your ordering yoru business checks often. Its great to have that company to offer a friendly reminder to make sure you have enough checks. Customer service comes in so many levels, but knowing you have it makes your business run more efficiently.
Change your payment methods when doing large business quotes

Its really exciting when your business gets new customers, but with a large quote. I had sent a quote to the customer, but due to the dollar amount. I had to make some changes. She got a great deal, but I had to be careful as well. I accept all form of payments through my website. But since this was a huge order. I had to change it. I will only accept a check or wire transfer.
If you ever have a charge back, but you sent the customer the product. Take the order amount, and double it. You lost the product, plus the order. You wouldnt want to take the risk on a huge order. Never send out a order with out receiving the payment in full. If its a check, it will take 5-10 days to clear. If its a wire transfer, then it will be right away you’ll receive the money. If you purchase more qty in the long run, the cheaper it will be, just like for cheap business checks. You can always email or call the business and find out what is going to be the best deal.
Very glad the banks have cut the debit card fees

With the banks cutting the debit card fees is making alot of consumers happy. The major banks have heard us and has listened. Bank of America has finally decided to pull the $5 a mth card fee. They were the last major bank of doing that. But, even though the major banks have canceled the fee. They will find another way to get the money made up one way or another. 
Make sure when or if you do switch to a new bank, that you ask as many questions about their fees as possible and read the Disclosure booklet first before agreeing to anything. When your getting a new account setup. Make sure all of your business checks has cleared the old bank before closing it out. Same way with any of the debit card transactions. Dont want to have any NSF fees.

Today in the news. They were talking about Bank of America and Wells Fargo Bank with customer service. They had won the best customer service award. Problem resolution is an issue industry-wide. Bank of America, Chase, and Wells Fargo were statistically tied with 64%, 66%, and 64% of customers’ issues resolved on the customer service call, while 57% of Citi customers surveyed reported their problems were solved with their customer service.
Offer the best and your brand and company will stand out. Who would want to do business with someone that wont help you. When your ordering business checks, you’ll have questions, like: what is your shipping policy? Do you offer a proof or samples? What happens if i order the wrong product? I cant get my debit/credit card to go through? Helping with the most important part of your business and being nice, friendly, and helpful will go along way. So….do what is right and help others. You’ll have a higher conversion rate, and repeat customers for sure. If your ordering quickbooks business checks, make sure you have your logo imprinted.
The new normal: Higher bank fees are here to stay

In the banking industry. Reports from this week are talking that banks are having a hard time making money the old-fashioned way, by lending money to consumers and businesses. Reason: interest rates are at historic lows. That makes it harder for banks to charge high rates on loans. Banks say the latest round of fees was triggered by a new federal law championed by Senator Dick Durbin. The law caps the amount banks can charge merchants for debit card usage from 44 cents to 24 cents per transaction.
The major banks are finding ways to pass the fees to the consumers. One way is by charging a fee for using your debit card. We all may have to back to the old traditional way, and that is by using cash, and business checks, or personal checks. We will need to be more responsible and keep a better track of using our own money, vs logging onto the internet and see what is left. Simple old fashion ways is still good. Yes you can still make your own cheap business business checks with the right software, printer (with micr toner), and bulk blank checks

Dont forget to see if your low on business checks and deposit slips. If you wait till the last moment, you could spend alot of money on express shipping and we all need to keep our profits up.
Hurricane Season is here, make sure you backup your business files and checks

Theirs a tropical storm that has just formed in the Atlantic Ocean. The track is heading for the state of Florida and maybe Georgia. When we have a business, its important that you back up your business files and put it into your bank safety deposit box. What if your business got flooded and needed to get your business files. It would be safe and nothing to worry about.
If your business is flooded but you dont have a backup, you could loose years of business information, and accounting files. Make sure you have a back up for a backup and your business is insured as well. What would you do if your business checks were all wet from flooding, how would you re start where you left off. Check with your bank and see what was the last business
checks that had cleared and re-order business checks again.

When you make the purchase of an accounting program. Do you know what kind of checks that you need to use? Well maybe this will help. Quickbooks accounting program uses checks on top, or full page of checks (3up checks). You can have them to be customized with or with out lines. Dont forget to add your b/w logo or color logo. You can even have 2 signature lines if you need to.
Peachtree Accounting offers 4 style but with out lines though. If you want to use the check on top, you can, but it will have be edited in the program to use it. Peachtree or quickbooks can have the logo and or a watermark on the checks. Most of the business checks has the basic security feature for your protection and prevent fraud. Business checks do come in alot of styles and colors. Look around and see what you like. Dont forget to ask for samples to make sure its what you need, then place the order for your business.

Having a business does have alot of responsibilities. One thing we all forget to do as a business owner is to have our merchant accounts to be reviewed. Having your account looked at can save you money in monthly fees. Call customer service and ask for a rate review. You could have your discount rates to be reduced, or placed onto a different plan.
Since their is new laws coming out, you’ll be able to save not only on rates but interchange fees that the banks make a nice profit off of, and is passed onto you. Have your customers to mail in their quickbooks business checks as it can save you money as a merchant, and keep the fees down. The one main thing is that it will take longer for you to receive the check if its mailed, and then cleared, before you can ship the merchandise out to your customer.

Are you spending too much on business checks from your bank that is imprinted? Why not look on line for “Cheap Business Checks”. Finding cheap business checks online is easy to do. If you find a company on line and place large orders. You’ll be surprised at the amount you can save for the year vs. buying it from the bank. Online you can customized the checks better than the bank can. You can get 250 imprinted checks for $38, vs $75 that the banks will charge
Dont forget to add your color logo to the cheap business checks. What is the difference for cheap business checks than the banks? Nothing at all. Security features are going to be the same, or just a little different, but still is in compliance with the banks and the check 21 laws. The banks make a huge profit off of the business checks, and not much colors/styles where as online you can find at least 15 different checks.
Happy Fathers Day to every Dad out there. I was asked a good question by a customer. The question was, can I buy a gift Certificate for dad to order business checks for his company? Yes you can do that. You can buy a gift certificate and have it emailed to you, or mailed. Then give him the gift in a larger box. This will come in handy if Dad is opening up a new business.
He will be able to use it for Quickbooks Business Checks. Theirs so many colors/styles you can select from. Theirs a style for each of the three different security types that is on the market. Make sure dad knows that he orders the right check type. Quickbooks business checks uses the checks on top, and peachtree uses the checks in the middle. If you order the wrong type, you’ll be able to call or let the company know that you need to change the type.

Making sure your business information for your customers is always up to date. Failure to do so can result in customer complaints, customer service problems, and potential of losing customers. Information online for a product, or services you offer is taken seriously, and can be used for legal stuff. There was an instance i ran into with a bank.
I was told the onsite check deposit cut off time was 8pm. I had placed the deposit around 7:30pm. Come to find out, the same day deposit is 7pm and the onsite check deposit wouldn’t be processed till next day. Well come to find out, they are changing the cut off time next month till 9PM for same day deposit. Wow…that was alot to go though and could of caused me problems with the checking account, but it didnt. When your deposing business checks, or personal checks, its always important to make sure everything is correct and the deposit reconciles with your accounting program. Keeping info
rmation updated is very urgent for any business.
