Why Merchant Services?

Why dive into merchant services sales? As Rich puts it, this field is an "incredible opportunity" waiting to be seized.

Getting Started with the Right Mindset

According to Rich, the key to success in merchant services begins on your first day. Here’s how you can start strong:

  1. Full Commitment: Approach this as a full-time endeavor—part-time efforts do not breed full-time results.
  2. Goal Setting: Write down clear, tangible goals. Decide how many clients you want to sign up in the first 30 days and set realistic targets for the year, including financial aspirations like hitting six figures in your first year.

Training and Support: Your Pathway to Success

Rich’s team, the Super Crew, provides an extensive support system to help you navigate your new career. They offer:

  • Structured Training: A series of 18 instructional videos each followed by a quiz to test your understanding.
  • Daily Support: Direct access to field leaders and an executive team that guides you through every step, ensuring you start generating sales quickly.

Accessibility and Mentorship

Rich stresses the importance of mentorship and readily available support. He encourages all new reps to reach out without hesitation, promising that help is always just a phone call or email away.
