Numbers

I had sorta down year this past, so I kind of put off looking at the final numbers.
Turn out to be not as bad as I thought.

What really shocked me was that 51% of my sales were paid for by credit card !
That's a large increase from the year before. Are you guys seeing less cash ?

Re: Numbers

Yes, same here and that of course means less bottom line with more fees. I was only down 13% last year, which surprised me a little, also. I hardly ever get a check, and not really that much cash either.

Re: Numbers

Mostly credit cards here. Less cash this past year. A few checks which usually comes from my regulars so at least they don't bounce.

Re: Numbers

I would say that about 85-90% of my sales are credit/debit, hardly ever cash or checks...maybe 1 or 2 a week. I HATE paying all the CC fees, but I do get the money right away....
