You Can And Should Grow Your Business Or Service Using Non Traditional Methods Or Strategies!

Here’s why this is potentially profitable to you and I. Both now and or in the future.A while back. One of my local customers, who’s a computer repair expert.

He and I bartered my marketing/copy writing services,(in an ongoing basis), in exchange for him providing some much needed, ongoing computer trouble shooting on my computer.

So whenever we need assistance in those particular areas. We reach out to each other first. Sadly, far too many aspiring entrepreneurs. Both on and offline. They see or hear about various, potential barter situations.

And they automatically dismiss them. As either, unrealistic or these types of non traditional situations, only happen with mega corporations. Or incredibly small, mom & pop operations. It happens a whole lot more often than you may think or currently realize.

Hopefully, going forward. What should be or become readily apparent is. These proven examples of barter. Happen to the tune of billions of dollars per year.

And it’s literally been this way for decades. But again. Do not ever attempt to enter into any type of barter arrangement. Until you have a fairly good grasp of the fundamentals.

And you know and understand the potential tax consequences. The main point of this particular blog being. Please do not overlook and or ignore, the long term, profit generating potential of some form of barter.

  2. Hi Mark,
    How exciting to see your post! I love the conclusion you drew from reading my article.
    You are right. Bartering is becoming more and more the norm. I see it at Influencers.com where people offer me their product in exchange for promotion as compensation. Thanks for the article.

    • You’re extremely welcome Coach!

      And I definitely can’t stress it more.

      There is a ton of currently untapped, long term marketing potential,
      just waiting to be discovered and effectively utilized, through some form
      of barter.

      And I’m so glad, you freely shared being approached about potentially
      using it. All it takes is the creative meeting of marketing minds.

      Always great to see and hear from you coach! Thanks so much for
      stopping by and sharing your real world insights!
