Top 10 Benefits of Barter Through IBE

There are lots of reasons we could provide you with to convince you to join the IBE Barter Exchange. But, rather than bombard you with facts and figures, we decided to provide you with the top 10 reasons thousands of successful business owners have joined IBE.

01.

GREATER PROFITS

Bringing you new business...: Improved profitability is the goal of every business. There are only two ways to improve cash profits: increasing the amount of business or reducing costs. The IBE Barter Exchange can help with both by bringing you new business, which you would not receive otherwise, and by turning that business into goods and services your business needs, thus eliminating an equal amount of cash overhead costs.

02.

MORE BUSINESS & NEW REVENUE SOURCES

More than 600 members...: The IBE Barter Exchange provides marketing services to more than 600 members in the Sarasota, Manatee & surrounding markets. That means potentially new customers you wouldn't have otherwise been exposed to. More importantly, these customers will have a bias to spend their trade dollars at your business over your competitors because you are a member of IBE. They know that a purchase from you will seed a future new sale for them selves. Why? Because all purchases are paid for by a new sale.

03.

EFFICIENT USE OF EXCESS INVENTORY & SERVICE TIME

We can help...: Every business struggles with the dilemma: what to do with extra inventory or work-hours that could be put to better use. When you join IBE we are committed to finding ways to put that excess to use in a way that benefits your company. Our trade brokers can match you with businesses and individuals looking for your goods and services and, in return, you will have access to goods and services both locally and worldwide.

04.

EXCEPTIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE

We don't succeed unless you succeed...: The IBE Barter Exchange is committed to excellent customer service. We work hard for the benefit of our members, actively marketing you to other members and pursuing the goods and services you need. We aggressively enforce rules of fair trading to ensure the integrity of your trade transactions. We don't succeed unless you succeed and nobody is better at making trade work for you than IBE.

05.

IMPROVES CASH FLOW & PROVIDES MORE CASH ON HAND

Keep more cash in your pocket...: When you join IBE, you open a new, cash-free way of handling overhead costs. This means that the money you formerly spent on overhead costs can stay in your bank account so that it can be used to expand your business or make needed improvements. Join the IBE Barter Exchange and let us find ways to keep more cash in your pocket!

06.

NEW DISCOUNTED LINES OF SUPPLY

Wholesale cost...: When you make a purchase using your barter currency, it is equal to that of your wholesale cost. So when you buy your investment using your barter currency, it is equal to your wholesale cost. Therefore, everything you buy through IBE is like buying at wholesale!

07.

CONVENIENT COMPUTERIZED BOOKKEEPING

Providing the best...: IBE uses state-of-the-art technology to provide you with on-line account balances, histories and monthly statements providing efficient, accurate and convenient bookkeeping for all your trade transactions.
