Service Professionals
When a business depends on billable hours for profits, every unfilled slot on their appointment calendar represents lost revenue that will never be replaced. Bartering offers these types of businesses the opportunity to:
- Turn those open appointments into new customers
- Get a steady stream of new clients
- Build up your list of happy customers
- Receive referrals from customers we bring them
- Use our customers as reference sites for more work
Hotels / Motels / Backpackers / Accommodation Providers
Every night forty percent of the hotel rooms across the country are empty, however, these businesses fixed costs stay the same regardless whether those rooms are vacant or not.
- Selling empty rooms online using barter makes good sense.
- No cost to advertise
- No need to discount
- Sell only when during down-periods (off-season, cancellations etc)
- Attract customers to your business instead of your competitors
- Get a steady stream of new clients
- Sell previously unsold rooms at full price
Media / Advertising Providers
Advertising is a very perishable commodity. Every unsold advertising spot or print ad cuts directly into your bottom line. With fixed costs and competition on the rise you can’t afford to miss a single chance to build revenue and cut costs.
- We can help you reach new advertisers
- Fill your unsold advertising space
- Take customers away from the competition
- No need to discount
- No need for costly promotions
- Our members pay you instantly – no accounts receivable
- Turn a loss into a profit
- Deal with a loyal customer-base
Event Tickets / Entertainment Venues
Your barter exchange gives businesses the opportunity to sell event tickets, venue seats and entertainment attraction passes at the last minute as an alternative to discounting.
Once these types of businesses cover their overheads any additional revenue is 100% profit. Through the effective utilization of the barter exchange platform these businesses can attract additional customers without the added burden of increased advertising costs.

- Allows participants to sell at the “last minute”
- Turns empty spaces into a valuable asset
- No need to discount
- No need for costly promotions
- The seller receives payment instantly
- Turns a loss into a profit
- Attracts new customers

Liquidation Stock
Every year a large amount of businesses find themselves with end of line or last seasons stock, incorrectly packaged or returned products and “new” items which did not sell as well as they initially thought they would.
Instead of discounting this surplus capacity, a barter exchange offers its members a way to receive full market value:
- No cost to list
- Sell at full price
- Sellers get paid immediately
- Online quotes or fixed-price offers
- Offers can be limited by date and quantity
- Participants only have to accept the customers they want
- Customers are attracted away from the competition
- New and trial products have a greater market-reach and, if unsuccessful, they do not cause brand impact – something which could have potentially affected the cash-paying customers
- Businesses receive word-of-mouth referrals
