What Exactly is a “Big Girl Cart”?
By: Lisa Manyon, www.writeoncreative.com
A “big girl cart” is my tongue in cheek reference to a full blown shopping cart where people (like you if you’re interested) can access products and services and buy online. Trust me, I may joke about finally having a “big girl cart” but it is a really big process.
I’m thankful for the support I had along the way. Sorting out merchant accounts, selecting the right cart for my business, designing the cart to support my brand and the list goes on.
Now, in addition to PayPal which I’ve accepted for sometime, I also accept select major credit cards for consumer convenience. But, that’s just one cool feature of the cart.
Another cool feature is the affiliate opportunity where you earn commissions if you sign up, are approved and receive a specialized link that you can provide to friends and colleagues, you receive commission from me when your referrals buy.
So… drum roll please… I share with you my “big girl cart” and I’m interested to hear your feedback.

Hi Lisa,
I like the big girl cart idea. You said “I also accept select major credit cards for consumer convenience. But, that’s just one cool feature of the cart.” Could you recommend a company or a couple that would allow me to accept credit card payments for my design business? I have used PayPal for a few years. I have heard of some, such as Charge.com but know nothing of their reputation.
Thanks.

Hello Julie,
I personally use MyCart and it was set up through Seattle Design. Feel free to contact them and let them know I sent you. http://www.seattledesigngroup.com
Since I haven’t used other cart services (other than PayPal), I really cannot recommend anyone else but I do know my clients LOVE being able to use credit cards.
What is your design specialty?
Sincerely;
Lisa~
