Landmark Merchant Solutions Opens Downtown Office to Support Online Growth

With the increased need for businesses to have a strong online presence to go along with payment processing, Landmark Merchant Solutions has opened a new office in downtown Chicago in an elegant Class A facility.

Chicago, IL (PRWEB) October 16, 2005 -– With the increased need for businesses to have a strong online presence to go along with payment processing, Landmark Merchant Solutions has opened a new office in downtown Chicago in an elegant Class A facility.

In a competitive market, Landmark Merchant Solutions continues to lead the industry in offering a wide array of services that go above and beyond the traditional hands-off payment processor. Services include: free 15-page business website, free email accounts, free online statements, no-cost hosting, free domain name, free gift card start-up and technology that has received awards from organizations like Internet World, PC Computing and Internet.com.

“With the addition of the downtown office, we are now attracting the highest caliber account representative to educate our merchants on the increasing importance of payment processing with an online presence, “ said Alan Gitles, President and CEO.

Online marketing and sales, as most thriving businesses would agree, is a burgeoning portion of a business’ strategy. No longer can even a retail business expect to open its doors, advertise in print, and expect to attract enough customers to succeed.

Landmark is quick to point out, however, that an online presence, alone, will not guarantee success. The more rounded the marketing strategy, the more channels of distribution, the greater the chance of surviving and thriving.

Landmark Merchant Solutions is committed to maximizing these channels by offering a complete marketing and advertising strategy, rather than merely facilitating credit card acceptance, like most others in the merchant account industry.

“What we’ve done is pool our resources and experience to create a full marketing strategy—a business solution—which, until now, was cost prohibitive to the small business owner,” states Joe Garza, Vice President of Marketing.

This cutting-edge solution has led to increased demand among small merchants. Increased demand means a need for more high quality representatives, which the new downtown Chicago location has already fulfilled.
