Without Cash
Imagine paying the majority of
your marketing budget directly with your products and
services NOT cash.
Over 300,000 small businesses in
North America do exactly that using Barter, the
age-old practice that continues to contribute to
billions of dollars in commercial transactions
each year.
The mission of Simplicity
Barter is to help grow your business, by
providing a simple marketing plan that allows you
to easily trade your products and service for
critical business need.
Marketing,
Menus and promotional literature can all be
done with barter. Using Barter for these critical
needs will increase your cash flow simply by
eliminating the use of cash to promote your
business, thus increasing the bottom line.
Interestingly,
one of unexpected added benefits of bartering is the
relationships that are built between small businesses.
This can form a very basic strategic partnership. The
bartering relationship fosters trust, support, and an
interest in the other business prospering. Sometimes,
especially when the businesses are complementary, the
business relationship turns out to be an even bigger
asset than the cash savings from bartering.
In
addition to forming individual relationships with
other local businesses, you can also arrange
exchanges through a barter exchange. Barter
exchanges are middlemen for transactions and
provide barter credits based on the dollar value
of the good or service. The business can then use
their credits to purchase goods and services from
other members of the exchange. The exchange
provides access to a network of actively
bartering businesses.
Do note, however, that bartering
is not "free" money. The goods and
services being bartered do need to be valued and
declared on your income tax. The fair market
value of goods and services exchanged must be
included in the income of both parties. Income
from bartering is taxable in the year in which
you receive the goods or services. Generally, you
report this income on Schedule C, Profit or Loss
from Business Form 1040. If you are in a business
or trade, you may deduct any costs you incurred
in performing the work that was bartered.

Short
of Cash? Barter!
The Internet has provided a medium for new growth in the
bartering exchange industry. There are hundreds of
bartering exchanges operating around the world, and more
are opening their doors daily. Bartering can be
particularly useful in dealing with countries that have
limitations on movement of capital in and out of the
country.
The list of items available for trade seems unlimited.
There are vast possibilities from bartering for
advertising to bartering for salaries, benefits and
incentives for employees. Almost anything is available
somewhere with the possible exception of utilities, taxes,
and bank payments. And with the aid of an exchange, even
though, they usually charge a fee of 10 to 15 percent of
each trade, the time commitment on your part is
negligible.
Before signing up for a trade exchange, here are some
common sense steps you should take:
Make a list of what you want to trade and
the items you would be willing to accept in return.
Choose a barter organization that deals in the items you
are interested in trading.
Ask for a referral list of clients and confirm
that they have been satisfied with how their transactions
have been handled.
Find out how many clients and items the barter
organization currently has.
Check the prices for items being bartered to see
if the organization is pricing them fairly.
Find out where the clients from the organization
are from. Distance may be a factor in transporting goods.
Then, again, you may wish to offers your goods over a
broader regional area. Many trade organizations are local,
but are part of larger networks of exchanges, providing a
wider base for trade.
Find out what other services the barter
organization provides for their percentage of the trade.
Common services provided are management of the exchange,
brokering the items offered for trade, consulting
services and barter information.
Compare the services offered by a variety of
barter services before making the choice.
Legitimate barter organizations are required to
report barter income of each client to tax authorities.
Do not do business with any barter organization that does
not provide tax reporting.

Barter
networks or exchanges groups have become a
valuable tool for many businesses in recent years.
Bartering group members and companies list goods and/or
services that they are willing to make available for
trade. When your goods or services are purchased by
another company, the selling business receives trade
credit based on the dollar value of the product or
service offered. A business uses its trade credits to
purchase goods or services offered by other members. The
exchange helps you to promote your products and
services to others that you never would have had the
chance to do business with.
