What’s is the best way to accept credit card/bank cards?

Our businesses currently only accept cash or check. We have multiple customer that would prefer to pay by card. Is there a company/app that does this? Are they all the same? Do you just charge the customer for the fees? Sorry for so many questions. New to the sub. Thank you

Feeling guilty about telling my clients I am leaving this line of work and cannot help them any longer

I have been a sole proprietor for over 10 years. Part of my business involves engaging subcontractors to collect survey data. Across the entire field over the past several years, the quality of survey data has declined drastically (due to bots and fraud, but also poor quality control across vendors). I do not want to do this work anymore because getting data that approaches acceptable quality has become too stressful and even then, I don't fully feel confident about it. I have enough money to stop this part of my business. Some clients have been depending on me for yearly surveys that they track and therefore they depend on this continuity, but this must come to an end. I have done the best I can for them, but I need to tell them I cannot do it any longer. I want to tell them that I am getting out of the survey business. Do I owe them any explanation? I'm sick about it.

Solutions for dealing with large number of emails?

Today I have received 98 emails and it is 3:15PM. I average about 150 per day. I try to keep my inbox at zero so I am constantly stopping what I am doing and reading incoming emails. Even if I am not fully responding or taking care of the email I will read it and copy it to my to do list. I have read CEO's of large companies get 500+ per day so I can see this is just going to get worse as we continue to grow and add new divisions. It has gotten to the point where very time I get a notification I get angry. How do you handle large numbers of incoming emails? Right now our solution is to hire reception/assistant to share between my business partner and I who will also keep the company calendar. Any recommendations are appreciated. I have received 5 new emails since beginning writing this post.

What's the best way to start a photography business?

Specifically, sell my photos rather than take pictures at others' request. I take pictures of nature in my backyard, including clouds, flowers, dawns/dusks, puddles, etc. I want to make some money off them, and I thought the ideal way would be to sell them in calendars, mousepads, bookmarks, postcards, etc. but nothing seems to be working very well. I know there is plenty of information about starting a photography business online, but it's so overwhelming and I don't know where to start with zero guidance. Does anyone here have any experience, advice, and knowledge in this field?

Advice in selling my share of a small business?

Hi I am looking advice in selling my share of a small gym I invested in 2019? I own 50% of the business but I am not involved in the running. In 2019 I put up all the money to purchase the gym and over the last 3 years my partner has been paying me back in monthly instalments but I have lost faith in my business partners conviction to the gym (they own an other gym and spend all their time there) I can see that the business is not running well at the minute. This of course is concerning to me and the future plans. Any advice on going forward would be very much appreciated. Thanks
