Double Click Marketing President Joins Credit Card Processor Maxpayments

LOS ANGELES — Adult industry veteran Leslie Sharp has joined credit card processor Maxpayments.

Sharp will remain president of Double Click Marketing Inc., a full-service management company for adult studios. At Maxpayments, which is wholly owned by Merchant Max Inc., Sharp will help with operations, including marketing and business development.

“I'm anxious to get to work for a company as innovative as Maxpayments,” Sharp said. “After learning more about their operations, I'm impressed by the level of customization that they provide their clientele. After being in web development and marketing for 10 years, it's exciting to get involved in the banking side of the business.”

Jonathan Avganim, Merchant Max Inc. founder and CEO, said he was “thrilled to have such a knowledgeable, well-connected industry veteran” on board.

Maxpayments opened for business two years ago and places an emphasis on customer service.

“If we don’t take care of our customers, someone else will, which is exactly why our customer service team is amongst the best in the industry,” Avganim said. “Each ‘Max Expert’ is trained to strengthen their customer's processing potential and are dedicated to exceeding their expectations.”

Maxpayments in-house research and development team follows market trends, Avganim said.

Maxpayments staff will be attending Webmaster Access West in Los Angeles Nov. 19-21 and encourage attendees to seek them out.
