Doing Business on the Road

Though no one will ever confuse me for a techno-wizard, that does not preclude a fine appreciation for that which makes it easier and better to do good business. Here's something that came in on a publishing discussion group that could be of interest to you.

I just discovered last night that PayPal now lets you send and receive 
payment through your phone. A simple activation done online - if you 
have participating phone services in Canada, US, and England - means 
you can send payment through a text message to your mobile phone or 
voice mail through PayPal's 800 number. As I'm going on tour for a year
this appeals to me - I won't always have Internet access and will want to
sell books along the way. I could strike up a conversation anywhere, sell
a book and do the transaction on the spot.

Until next time,
Paulette -- who may eventually have to get a cell phone
