Why barter?
Working within the trading systemHave you ever said to yourself why barter? What’s the point? If you have, you need a lesson on the benefits of working within the trading system. Using bartering or online bartering to pay for goods and services as opposed to a traditional cash, credit, or check pay exchange can do you and your business a lot more good than you think.
- Why barter? You’re not spending money.
When you barter, you don’t have to use any of your actual profits as pay. Exchange any excess products or time you may have for other goods and services. You are going to need your cash when the business is having a lull, something that happens to every business, so save the pay. Exchange your goods and services for other goods and services; once you begin working with the trading system, you’ll never have to wonder why barter is a good idea.
- Why barter? It creates more business.
Whether you are bartering one-on-one or online bartering through an agency, you are letting other potential customers experience your business in exchange for their extra time or goods, instead of making them pay for it. Once they experience your goods or services and they are happy with what you have to offer, you can bet you’ll get a little more business thanks to their recommendations. You can’t underestimate the power of word-of-mouth advertising and bartering is a great way to do that while getting something back in exchange.
