Nuggets of Knowledge

Once you're ready to start your e-business or perhaps get your own merchant account, there's some important information you should digest about the credit card industry, business terms, legal responsibilities, chargebacks, your responsibility as a merchant, e-commerce technologies, and so on. Questions like "Do you really need a web site?" and "Do you need a federal EIN to start a business?" are answered in the linked nuggets below. You've probably been informed about many over-hyped schemes such as MLM (Multi-Level-Marketing) schemes that actually represent Milking-Lower-Mines. Very few MLM programs actually let you participate for free, and most have a product that is of little market value. These should be distinguished from free-entry multi-level systems, which we call FML (Free-Multi-Level). Some FML systems actually give you a free web site and a product that actually sells. For example, GoEmerchant gives you a free web site as an affiliate to help you market their ecommerce solutions such as merchant accounts, the Buy_Me button, the EZ Payment Gateway and related products. They also allow you to customize the free web site with your own logos, titles, color scheme and key words. This free web site example was provided to Merchant Goldmine as an affiliate reseller. Notice the customized web title and company name on this example. This is just one example, other viable opportunities will be found throughout the Merchant Goldmine. No doubt you've been introduced to email promotions that try to sell you email lists for unmitigated SPAM promotions. If you've attended a promotional seminar you have been subjected to high pressure sales tactics that may sell you a web site or merchant account even if you don't have any business or product! Attending a promotional seminar is like saying, "I'm ready to be taken for a ride. How much money do you want?"
At Merchant Goldmine we try
to advise you not to make any hasty investments until you
have done some research from objective and credible sources. These nuggets of knowledge will give you a good
foothold on the e-commerce summit. Plan to take notes or print
the pages of information relevant
to your needs, or e-mail each page to a handy e-mail server, or bookmark each appropriate link for
reference. If you don't have time today, bookmark this page and
come back when you're ready to get started. We recommend you study
every corner or page of the Merchant Goldmine before you stake your claim
and make an investment. |

It's true that a little knowledge can lead to a lot of cash! It's also true that in some cases a little ignorance may lead to unfortunate outcomes. One of the most important services the web provides is to connect businesses to other businesses and consumers. Now several hundred major corporations have joined together to create a standard format and database to index all commercial and B2B entities on the web. UDDI (Universal Description, Discovery and Integration) can now be accessed for searching businesses or free registration of your own business. For a quick course in Internet Business or eMail as well as other topics, check out the free Newbie Tutorials or the Newbie Academy Club listed below.

Resources for Inventors and Innovators
All of the resources above offer valuable services. We do not recommend any site or service, in particular. Regardless of which service you use, if any, the only real protection for your innovative ideas is a patent from the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office. Even an approved patent may expose the inventor to risks if the claims are not prepared well, or the scope is too narrow.
