More Businesses = More Opportunities

When you next speak to your suppliers, why not mention our concept, worst case, they don’s see the benefit, best case, they join up, and you save even more cash.  The more businesses we get onboard, the easy it becomes to get even more onboard, as there will be even more trade opportunities for everyone.

The Better Barter

Why that ?

Well, in the traditional sense of the word, to barter is to make a trade with another person.  That’s all well and good, but lets take it to the extreme.  John owns Sheep, Michelle owns a florist, John wants some flowers for his wife on their anniversary and Michelle would love a nice juicy lamb joint for Sunday lunch.  Unfortunately, a direct trade between them would never work, for logistical reasons, what would John do with the rest of the Lamb ?  How could Michelle pay for a whole Lamb in Flowers – It just does not work.

What we are offering is a trade exchange, so you basically sell your item on the exchange for a credit in your account, and then use that credit to purchase something else.

More to come!

Trade Depot - The better barter

Please feel free to add your details to our database.

We are only looking for like-minded businesses that are open to a new way of doing business – Have excess time or stock – why not trade with someone else on the network.  The problem with normal “trade” is that you need to find someone with an item of equal value in order for the trade to happen.

We are different – your trade funds get stored in your account, and once you make a sale to anyone on the network, your account value increases, and you can then spend these funds with any other business on the network.

For example, a photographer sells a £200 voucher on the network, she can then spend £50 of this with a restaurant, £100 on servicing her car & the other £50 leave towards her next purchase.

Yes, there are other trade exchanges available, £500 joining fee, £20 monthly membership & 5% of each transaction charge (all in cash).  We are different – In the current economic climate, we realise that in order to succeed, we need to be affordable for everyone, because that way, we all benefit – a flat fee of £5/month. no joining fee, first 3 months free of charge, so absolutely no risk to you.
