Spring is here—and you know what that means. Time to open the windows, declutter the garage, clean out the closets, and finally get the yard back into shape. There’s something satisfying about clearing out the junk and starting fresh. But here’s a thought: what if we brought that same mindset into our businesses?

Just like your home, your business can gather dust and clutter over time—outdated tech, unnecessary fees, broken processes, and vendors that no longer serve your needs. Spring is the perfect opportunity to shake things up, tighten operations, and get ready for the increase in foot traffic and customer engagement that warmer weather often brings.

Let’s walk through a few ways you can spring clean your business—and how EPIC ZERO can help you refresh one of the most overlooked parts of your operation: your merchant services.



Why Spring Is the Perfect Time to Reassess Your Business

This season isn’t just about flowers blooming and birds chirping. It’s also a time of renewed energy and momentum—people are more active, more motivated, and ready to spend. If you’re in retail or run a physical location, that means more eyes on your store, more opportunity, and more potential to grow your sales.

The best way to prepare? Make sure your systems are running clean, lean, and ready to perform.

What Business "Clutter" Should You Get Rid Of?

Here are a few things worth tossing in the metaphorical dumpster:

🛠 Outdated Equipment

That glitchy card reader you’ve been wrestling with? It’s costing you time, trust, and potentially lost revenue. If it doesn’t support tap, chip, mobile, or eCommerce integration, it’s time to upgrade.

💸 Unnecessary Fees

Merchant accounts are notorious for sneaky fees and confusing pricing. If you’re not sure what you’re paying for—or if your processor is giving you junk charges every month—it’s time to audit your statement.

🧱 Inefficient Processes

Look at your workflow. Are there steps that can be automated or eliminated? Can you streamline ordering, inventory, or checkout?

🤝 Vendors Who Don’t Have Your Back

You need partners who are aligned with your values, not ones who lock you into fine-print contracts and treat you like a number.

Update, Refresh, and Streamline for Growth

The businesses that thrive are the ones that evolve. Refreshing your systems—especially your payment technology—can give your customers a faster, smoother experience while giving you peace of mind that you’re operating efficiently.

Better tech means:

• Faster checkouts
• Fewer failed transactions
• Happier customers
• More time to focus on growing your brand

Whether you’re a mom-and-pop shop, a mobile seller, or you’re selling firearms online, one thing is universal: smooth, reliable payment processing matters.

Don’t Overlook Your Merchant Services—Here’s Why

One of the most overlooked (and overpaid) areas in most small businesses is credit card processing.

You may not even realize:

• You’re paying monthly minimums, PCI fees, and batch fees
• You’re locked into long-term contracts
• You’re stuck using outdated equipment
• Your current provider is taking more of your money than they should

When’s the last time you really looked at your statement or ran a comparison?
