Every new business owner has to make many decisions that will effect the future.
Those choices require research, recommendations, and gut feelings.
We offer you these recommendations below.

MERCHANT SERVICES - Visa/MC/American Express/American Express

After receiving over 50 different mailings from Merchant Services Providers.
We started with recommendations, and contacted many business owners, no two
businesses used the same Service. And many told stories of problems they had
had. Next we reviewed all the mailings. Trashed 40, called on 10. Many were very
large nationally known, and a few small resellers. But the one we chose, was
by gut feelings. Family owned and operated - they are easy to talk with, and
they don’t try to sell you up, or sell you services you really don’t need.
Focused on service and support - they are willing, and go out of their way to
help. They returned our calls. Remembered our name. And followed up, repeatedly,
without pressure. We highly recommend them.

WEBSITE SERVICES - Website Design and Development, Web Hosting, Database
Applications

Owning an Advertising Agency for 25 years gave us contacts with many local
Website Service Companies. We interviewed a few, and were impressed with them
all, for talent. Our only concern was the consistent finger pointing by them
all. None would guarantee that the site they produced would be compatible with
the software of any Merchant Service we might choose. AACCESS, our Merchant
Service had recommended a Web Service Company to us, RNC Services. A full service web
hosting and design and development firm that routinely packages the needs of
any size business with AACCESS' e-commerce. We researched their website,
reviewed clients sites, and reluctantly made the call, to the state of Maine. As
you can plainly see by viewing our site, RNC Services developed a site that looks
and performs beyond our hopes. Understanding, professional and they care to the
point of working hard around your time schedule, not theirs. They have a very
simple 4-step process in place that helps develop the content, and that they
learn from to understand your business needs. All with no finger pointing.
After explaining what we wanted, RNC Services’s expertise made it come alive, and
all easily work together. We highly recommend them.

PHOTOGRAPHY - Studio, Portraits, On-sight, or Out-of-Town
Our list of photographers numbers as many as our years in business, more than
25. But for over the last ten years we have only used one photographer,
Carmelo Cunsolo owner of FX. Anyone can click a camera, but to work with someone
who can improve your initial idea, and perfect the final vision is a true
artist. Not to mention his easy demeanor, uplifting personality and positive
attitude. You may like what you see in the lens, but his eye for lighting and details
goes a step beyond. From stunning portraits to the intricate details of fine
jewelry, FX Digital Imaging (formerly FX Photo-graphics) has the artistic
ability to capture the essence of each subject the way it was ment to be. Even a
litter box! And by using the latest in digital photography equipment you can
be assured of perfection the first time, every time. We highly recommend them.
