![Square For Small Business: Is Square Right For You? [Square Explained]](/img/n.gif)
The vids are getting better and better with each and every upload. Really informative and helpful tips. Again, I don't shoot Wedding films. However, I do appreciate the knowledge being shared. Thank you!
Could you go over taxes for wedding videographers?
In the Eurozone the whole SEPA introduction last year means bank transfers are pretty easy and seamless. No extra charges (for receiving anyway) and leaves a nice paper trail. This is our go to method.
love your videos. what state are you from? keep em coming. I've been watching hours of your videos. I'm a big fan.
I do computer repair work. I tend to prefer cash or bank transfers. I will accept PayPal reluctantly as well as verified cheques if I need to. While I plan to get a pos at this point I'd lose a lot more than I'd make through one unless I upped my labour fees... Which would lose me customers because I need to stay in a range or they're just going to buy a new computer or laptop.
fantastic video. Thanks for your help
Great Content! Thx!
What studio management software do you use?
This was helpful.. thanks.
Your style is unique
Would you consider doing a video on how to find clients?
Hey if your getting clients for a customer. And you charge per lead. How can you keep track of how many leads you are generating your client.
I currently have clients pay 50% up front then 50% upon receipt of the video. Would you suggest against this way?
Why would a bride using a credit card be a red flag?
+Joshua Booth Studios i was wondering the same thing.
The risk of a chargeback I would guess. You give them their video, they put in a complaint and get their money back. A lot of hassle to fight it through the credit card company, who will also initially side with the customer.
+Joshua Booth Studios If I was spending $5000 with someone I had never used before, I would want the protection a Credit card gave me if YOU went bust before my wedding
+SNORKYMEDIA The risk is greater for the videographer. You could deliver the films to the client and they could still initiate a chargeback complaint. They have their video(s), you have no money. Also the client has the benefit of previous client referrals to weigh the risk of you not delivering. The videographer has very little in terms of the clients ability to settle the bill in full. Just because they have a credit card, doesn't mean they can actually afford you in the end.
+Eoin Healy never thought of that
thanks for your life story...
How would you charge for travel?
we where doing ok with squere, until one day they said that theye have to verify our businness payments and cant REALESE OUR MONEY WITHIN 90 DAYS! they dont even talk to us to give a resolution or explenation...horrible experience with them...withholding 3k+
Kraig, is Square integrated into your website via plugin or do you refer clients to Square Cash only? Thanks!
lol no reply
does it work in the uk?
Why Pay 2.75 on debit cards?! debit card cost is just a bit above 1% and I can give it for you for 1.69
Cash isn't available in Australia - otherwise would definitely use it!
+Mitch Phillips you have cash in Oz I've seen it
nothing but cash for me sadly .
Is this the cash app?
I want to do commissions but idk how
Anyone tried google wallet? also kraig how do u setup online contacts.
I use square
You should check out Freshbooks. It's really awesome! I just started using it and it's helped immensely with keeping track of payments and sending invoices and receiving payments online.
+Dan West I used to love Freshbooks until I discovered 17hats. Same features + the ability to send quotes and contracts. I think it's even a little cheaper.
Why do we have to pay a fee just to accept money from someone? Theres qta be a better/free/minimal fee way? Somebody please reply asap
You could accept bitcoin. That's free.
Off topic but how are you insuring yourself against potential lawsuits from unhappy clients? Thanks!
+ayang315 I think if you write down the things that you have to deliver in an agreement and both parties agree with it, as long as you deliver what is agreed to they'll never win a lawsuit. It all comes down to being clear what is wanted from you, and you being clear what you can and can't do. You are the expert, you set the expectations.
+Cyrion Willems thanks. I'm worried about things like errors and omissions. Weddings are live events and stuff goes wrong all the time.
That's true, I guess only experience learns you to improvise when stuff goes wrong! ;) I'm lucky I live in Holland though, people are not as addicted to treating everybody with a nice lawsuit here!
+ayang315 Your contract should have a line in it that reads something like: "because a wedding is a live event and we agree that it can not be recreated for documenting purposes, we can not guarantee any specific shot, angle, or series of images..."
If it has that line in it, then you shouldn't have any issues. I've shot over 100 weddings and only had a few issues where I didn't get a specific shot they were wanting. As a very last resort, I pointed them to the contract they signed, and they understood.
I've given a B&G 50% of their money back because they weren't happy. I believe I did everything I could have done (it was a stills gig, not video) but they weren't happy with the amount of pictures they received. This happened because non of their guests wanted to be photographed, and the B&G had stipulated that they wanted a number of candid shots of guests. Even with a 200mm lens, guests were clocking me and hiding their faces. It was so incredibly frustrating and from that moment on, I put a disclaimer in my contract that said if guests didn't;t want to be photographed, then it wasn't my responsibility.
I love you too. And I don't even know you
I’m thinking using Venmo for my small business, will Venmo charge me?
Diane Diane read the customer reviews first before downloading the app.
Why is it not allowing my to accept payments yet
I don't understand this shit at all... I wanna start a business someday, but I don't even know how to set up a regular bank account. This shit is too damn difficult
One step at a time, you'll get it..
Still stuck in that stone age, man
+mestuptim I would encourage you to move towards something professional. It communicates a level of professionalism that will allow you to charge more for your services.
I'm just wondering how many sticky notes he is wasting for this video😂
Good video but the venmo info is wrong. You just aren't allowed to use a regular venmo account to accept payments (you need a business venmo account)
And even that's not "illegal" but rather just a violation of venmo rules where they disallow such violating accounts and don't offer the seller any protections.
Your voice sounds familiar
currently I use Paypal. But they keep charging me 5% for every transaction!!! and now I just experienced an issue where the payment was disputed... I contacted my client to find out whats going on and he said they are experiencing an issues with their bank account... He send me the money from a different account and I thought We are even but no!! Paypal came into that game and charged me additional 43$ penalty fee for that dispute!!! Now I'm really mad! I thought its gonna be a piece of cake to reverse that penalty but no!! They say that Paypal do not reverse any penalties!! 5% made on each transaction is not enough anymore!! They need more money from Us!!! And they don't protect you as a seller!! Looks like everyone can take a money back after you'll deliver the service!! Stay away!!!!
This video is old old old but PayPal was and still is never the best way to take payments. Perhaps I'll make an updated video!
@@WeddingFilmSchool Yes... Make that video because they are full of shit!!! They let somebody to dispute the payment after 2months!! This way I can loose my incomes gained within last 6months!! And at the end if the day they charge me 43$ penalty fee for 535$ payment disputed! They charged me 5% payment fee at the first place and not additional 10% in penalty fees!! Looks like they know how to make a money!!
Anyone in Canada? What do you use? Cash.me is only in the US.
Thoughts on google wallet?

The worst company I've ever seen
