Gain new market and Reduce your cash expenses

Gain new market and customers

In order to gain more customers, a business owner would typically hire additional sales people, advertise, reduce prices or offer incentives.  By accepting an alternative method of payment i.e. Contrabart trade dollars, you open up your business to a whole new market of customers and in turn gain a competitive advantage.  The new customers you’ll receive from Contrabart will be motivated to buy from you.  This directly results in increasing your sales opportunities.

Reduce your cash expenses

Contrabart assists you to increase your sales, and in turn, you are able to spend the Contrabart trade dollars you earn, as well as your interest free line of credit, to purchasing products and services. Effectively, you will be able to offset some of your cash expenses by paying with Contrabart trade dollars, therefore saving your cash.

Save your cash and let us bring the bartering back

The first part is easy. Maybe you’re looking for a yoga class or interior-decorating help. The challenge is working out what goods or services you can exchange in return. Tapping into your professional expertise or considering what you studied in college is an obvious place to start. But also ask yourself:
 

• What would you sell if you were having a garage sale tomorrow? Is any of it worth trading?
• What hobbies could you teach someone?
• Could you craft something to swap? (A pair of hand-knit mittens? A photo book or a scrapbook?)
• Which common chores do you enjoy? (People have performed tasks as random as pulling weeds.)
