First thing we need to do is to encourage and to teach their target market about bitcoin. We can proved to them that most of people now are in bitcoin via survey. Those local businesses are after to their target market because they are the one who give profit to their businesses. And if the demand of bitcoin get higher and higher everyday, there's a possibility that those local businesses will engage and accept bitcoin as mode of payment. As a marketer that's the one thing we should consider first, then proceed to best marketing strategy that market will accept. And if we proved to them that bitcoin is feasible there's no doubt, local businesses will accept btc open arms.
the main use of bitcoin when you want to buy/sell without proof your ID so that when local businesses you must show your face which make many use other payment methods better that Bitcoin so we can’t we encourage local businesses to accept BTC
It is absurd.
BTC should acts like Gold. You cant carry a bag of gold when you shopping, unless all shops have balance.
BTC is born for value storing, not for value exchanging.

There are a lots of things to do in order to encourage local businesses to accept bitcoin. On my opinion, giving them a proposal business that make them to convince. Expalin to them very well, the best knowledge I have and discuss the history and the advantages about bitcoin. Though, most of people nowadays thinking that bitcoin is scam, patience should apply since we can't control there mind due to many scammers in the cyberworld.I would say much better to convince those people are open minded about business.Those people that are really trusted and willing to learn about bitcoin because someday it may lead a good profit in the future.
insurance we need advertize on tv and for everyone to understand how bitcoin especially local businesses to recognize it
and what will the businessman do if the state does not yet intend to legalize Bitcoin? It is necessary somehow to conduct reports to the Tax Inspectorate.
I think the most effective way in this time is introduce and promote bitcoin in various sectors first. Which in the end the general public to be familiar with btc so that local businesses can accept bitcoin as a means of payment of their transactions.

You can also be a form of advertisement to encourage the use of BTC. As some of the member already said you can have a mini semenar, give away flyers or give an advertisement in social media. It may be a lengthly proccess but I hope it will not be in vain since more and more people are getting interested in BTC.
I think one of the few ways we can convince local businesses to accept BTC in their stores is by encouraging customers to request for bitcoin as a mode of payment every time they visit the store as it will have store owners considering taking cryptocurrencies as a mode of payment after they make their assessments and research which should show more benefits for them such as no chargebacks, fewer fraud cases and easy proof of purchase if electronic receipts are issued.
Few things we are not able to encourage or educate if you do that purposely they will not show any interest on it and they ignore the value of it so. We just introduce bitcoin to the local business that's it, nothing else they will find the way by themselves and start accepting bincoin in their business.
Some of local business here in the philippines doesnt know that bitcoin exist, This is a long way run but we could convince them by giving a proper knowledge on how currency bitcoin works. This is not impossible to make. Bitcoin is on nationwide known especially in world market. I think that is not hard to convince them.
First of all need to educate them the advantage of using Digital Currency. afterwards if you explain very well. they will interested to accept bitcoin for daily transaction
I am looking to help move BTC forward into our economy more and would like to get some suggestions on how we can get more retailers to accept BTC as a payment. The best part about accepting BTC is that they do not have any threat of charge-back from the customer. I am just looking for some more input before I start approaching some of these local retailers.
This could be hard at first, because I think 80% of people here in my country didnt know about Bitcoin. Not unless if 2-3 mainstream local businesses starts accepting Bitcoin as payment. This could help introduce Bitcoin to the people and raise awareness about Cryptocurrencies and can make them accept Bitcoin as payments from the others. Now, if this happen more and more people are interested to attend seminars and orientation about the crypto world. Coz right now there are group of people in my country who promotes and introduce cryptocurrency, but sad to say its not so convincing. Its only the beginning is always the hardest part, once started everything will follow through.
I can encourage local merchants to accept the bitcoin as money,first i explain about the bitcoin uses and details of transactions.i give clear debate on bitcoin and i will show with examples.
There is no point stressing yourself to do something like this. There is no need encouraging local businesses cause a time would come when they themselves would realize it is just time for them to upgrade and they would find information on how to go about it.No matter what you tell most of them now, they do not even understand how the blockchain technology works and have no idea what bitcoin really is all about and which is why I am looking forward to governments legalizing and regulating as this would create more awareness.
Today, people willingly sell cars and real estate for bitcoins. An increase in the value of the crypto currency stimulates them to this.
Encouraging local business to use bitcoin would be really hard though because most of them even didn’t heard about bitcoin and they would surely refuse to use it. Convincing them would really a problem though except to those merchants who already accepts bitcoin as a payment. But still I believe that this adoption would really spread all over the world.
It is really going to be very hard. It would take a whole lot before you even start explaining to the owner of the local store and that is even if you are able to meet up with them one on one since they practically have managers doing the work for them. Adoption like you said would definitely spread and we will see most of them doing this themselves without being told.I think apart from explaining or educating the owners and/or managers of local businesses to accept Bitcoins, it is important to inform them about the positive effects of accepting Bitcoins in their business. One main factor you should put emphasis to is the rising value of Bitcoins. You must inform them that the value of Bitcoins can significantly make their businesses boom in no time.

If government accepts bitcoin, it will a necessary condition to encourage local businesses to accept BTC. Although we say persuasive but they say bitcoin is illegal. All can only operate sneaky. My country will ban bitcoin in next year.

If you are really serious in your intention of involving bitcoins into your countries economy then it would really take a lot of effort, You need to show them the advantage and disadvantage of bitcoins and set up a meeting to present your intentions, It was like convincing them to follow your desire.
Obviously he is not going to be able to do that much. There are famous celebrities like Dennis Rodman and DJ Khaled who have advertised a certain ICO. Did they change at all the economy of their country in terms of becoming a more cryptocurrency friendly country? I think not. Even famous celebrities haven't made that much change in the bitcoin world. It will take a lot more than a couple of celebrities promoting cryptocurrencies. It takes having bitcoin go mainstream in order for bitcoin to be commonly accepted by the merchants in the market. Even when he seriously have the intention to change something in their economy, he is still limited with the things that he can do. Unless he has millions of bitcoins, I'm afraid but he's not going to be able to do much.
Only thing he can do so far is to accept bitcoin in his own local business and start the change that he is looking for. Even though it wouldn't be as significant, it's still something and something is much better than nothing at all.
Create a propsal and list all your interest and plans. Set up a meeting for a corporation or any business that you want to be part of your plans. You need a best introduction for this companies to be attracted at your proposal.
