Shopping cart for selling offline services...

5 replies
I am creating a system where I will be emailing 25 potential clients per week for Google Places optimization services.

This will be an email with a link to a short video reviewing their current Google Places position, and how I can get them to the first page and get them more customers.

I want to be able to direct them to a page on my website where they can see more benefits of google places and buy the services right on my site.

What cart software do you suggest using that is the most automated way of getting them signed up, get their business information to me, and enroll them in the monthly recurring fee?

I plan on charging an up front fee, and a monthly fee to maintain their top listing and keep getting more citations, reviews, etc.

I would like for their credit card or paypal account to be billed monthly, and if they don't pay, I am notified so that I can make contact with them.

I am looking for a system that is the most automated way of taking care of checkout, invoicing, and recurring billing.

BTW...I am following John Durham with his 90 day challenge, so I plan on getting 25 recurring clients in 90 days to reach my 5k per month residual income.


Thanks guys

    Posting from phone so sorry for the short answer and no link. I would recommend freshbooks.com. It has a system for notifying of overdue payments and can integrate with a lot of cart s and paypal. Check into that to see if it will help ya.

    I am actually a new member at Freshbooks, but I did not see where or how to integrate into a shopping cart. I will dig deeper to see what I can come up with. Thanks for the suggestion.

    I really like the look of Freshbooks, and plan on continuing after my trial is over because it seems to handle invoicing really good, and keeps track of all my expenses and income.

    I will go now to see what they have to offer as far as integration.


    Thanks

    Okay, looks like freshbooks can integrate with shopify, merchantos, oscommerce, zencart, and magento shopping carts. I didn't see anywhere on shopify to handle products that are services, so I will look at the others.

    Any suggestions on which one would handle an upfront fee for a Google Places setup, then a recurring fee?

    I would also need the cart to integrate into my wordpress site.

    I will be researching as well.


    Thanks

    How do you feel about using 2checkout.com or 1shoppingcart.com?

    anyone have ideas with 1shoppingcart.com? I've been struggling so long to find a reliable payment processor instead of Paypal and 2checkout.com
