Great reading if your ready to really use the power of barter in your business

 

Learn how to barter—today’s best currency—in this comprehensive, up-to-date guide.

Just because you don’t have cash doesn’t mean you don’t want and need things. According to authors and business gurus Karen Hoffman and Shera Dalin, it’s time to get a little creative. Most people have a skill they can use—it’s just a matter of figuring out what that is and how to use it to get something else. From piano lessons in exchange for haircuts to an engine tune-up in exchange for house painting, The Art of Barter offers step-by-step instructions in:

  • Determining your “tradable” skills
  • Initiating a trade
  • Figuring out a fair exchange
  • How to close a deal
  • Incorporating barter into everyday life

In addition, the book is peppered with inspirational ideas on how to use barter in today’s tough economic world.

 

For Advanced Barterers

In Barter Secrets (How to Survive Economic Hard Times), B. J. Fuller shows readers how to negotiate and trade like a pro. In ten chapters with titles such as “Images of a Baron,” “Getting Into the Flow,” “My First Trade” and “Prospecting for Profit,” the author teaches readers to think out side of the box when it comes to making money and ascending what he calls the “pyramid to prosperity” by using one of the oldest tools of the money-making trade. Eye opening and creative, the author wastes no time in showing how to weather these turbulent economic times through a resourceful and productive tactic. Who would have thought that something as old-fashioned and seemingly obsolete as bartering could recover Americans’ hard-earned wealth?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Barter will absolutely create more business and new business for your product or service, but will it create a larger bottom line. If you follow the concepts outlined by Jerry in (The Complete Idiot's Guide to Barter and Trade Exchanges)you will learn how to turn new business into more profits. Any business that could use more customers, especially if you are competing with national chains, needs the edge that barter provides. Read the book and find out how barter would work for you, what it costs, what the down sides are and the importance of the broker. You will find as I did that it truly is "Better to Barter".
