i don't think that we can help them, they have to decide on their own

Yes we can, we can encourage them. We can explain them what are the benefits, like those related to taxes or that they will maybe easier find bitcoin investors then fiat investors or that with using bitcoins they could be more competitive. There are risks too, ofw course, but it's worth trying.

Businesses owners prefer to stay out of trouble, if you begin to say to them they can avoid taxes with bitcoin they are going to avoid bitcoin even more since they prefer to pay their taxes than to risk their investment in their business.

im always asking "are you accepting btc?" to all shops in Turkey. but sometimes staffs are know what is btc. we need more academic presentation. if everyone knows, they accept it. we need to spread it.

If the bitcoin price rises to $5000, most people in the world will know about Bitcoin. Attention chases money.

Yes you are right but we can help them by explaining them what are the uses of bitcoins there are many local businesses dont know about bitcoins so we can help them by our suggestions it's up to them if they are really convinced for your suggestions.

Absolutely right we really can help them actually through our explainations but its really hard to teach them if no proof at all right? So to begin explaining them the btc reality we must have our visual aids like presentation of bitcoin history and until at present days btc influences a lot of people who are brilliant with their visions. We must have records of activities we did online and include it in our presentation files to be having complete, brief and trusted information and of course the sincerety of what you will be explaining to those local businesses owners.

Those visual and other stuffs will really help you out on convincing but besides on bringing those tools its better to show them off a full and precise explanation of bitcoin through video because its somehow effective on explaining on precise way and bring some little examples to demonstrate to him on its usage then he might got interested on that but still depends on the knowledge of business owner into digital stuffs.

This thread has gone full retard with posts and ideas being repeated over and over. Lets all face it ladies and gentlemen, convincing local businesses to accept BTC in a massive scale that would matter is a lost cause. Convincing illegal online businesses to accept BTC on the other hand, is a different story.

Even if you can encourage them to accept Bitcoin, how can you able to change the government rule. I mean, In my country, the government has promulgated restrictions on Bitcoin and other currencies and warn the people the Bitcoin is dangerous which can steal people money. Because of those rules, Bitcoin can not be used here.

bitcoins means its really amazing

For sure, it provide suicides, when the exchange rate go down at 80% in few days.
There are no people who will have such risky currency in hands.
Business people need a stable currency, such fluctuations are unaccettable.
In normal way they exchange BTC to $ or € at the same moment of payment in BTC.

feels like it is still 2013

Except there are more stores that accept bitcoin, and more lunatic bitcoin enthusiast than before Tongue

. It is still not easy to convince people to establish business and accept bitcoin as payment. The high volatility is the culprit behind this hardship in my opinion.

Like PayPal if they could announces or paste they avcoets bitcoins means its really amazing and people who uses bitcoin will utilise it for sure. But due to idiot government we any small businesses or grocery could do that easily.

if you will just show them what is the value of bitcoin

About what "value" are You talking now?

I'm talking about the price of bitcoin there. Because if those businessmen will see the price/value of bitcoin today.

It can make them encourage that bitcoin is really a real currency that can be used for good whether you are transacting with merchants or other user.

That doesn't give any sense, why would a business care for the price of a coin if they want to use it or not? They wont get anything extra for using bitcoin no matter what is its price. If they are selling shoes then they will just get the payment for that, no matter if you pay it with bitcoins or dollars you will have to give the same price for that.

What? You don't have an idea regarding business profit pricing and everything? Business will care about a price of a coin.

Because they are a profitable establishment that aims for profit so that they can keep on operating.

They will get something extraordinary upon acceptance of bitcoin, it is a matter of uniqueness.

We can help them, we just need to explain to them on how bitcoin can be good to their business and how it can boost their sales. Especially if their business is an online business, their transactions can be on instant and while bitcoins is in their wallet. The chance of getting higher profit as the price increase is happening, it can give them another opportunity.

Interestingly I have convinced my local shopkeeper to start accepting bitcoin payments, but unfortunately he is not finding many bitcoin payments and no significant improvements in sales.

This may be due to lack of bitcoin adoption in my area and also even some people are adopting bitcoin still they are not ready to spend bitcoins right now.

That's good to know if you had convinced your local shopkeeper, don't worry it is a step by step process. So the next thing that you need to do is advertise and let those customers know that the shop that you are sharing knowledge about bitcoin is already accepting it. It may took a little time before those customers will have total adoption in bitcoin but what is important that you already advertise bitcoin to them.
