Profile Of A Barter Transaction
Let's say you own a landscaping business and you need a lawyer to help you incorporate. You can browse the Barter Systems Inc. Directory or call your Barter Systems Trade Broker to find a lawyer in your area. You would then meet directly with the lawyer to discuss your needs, just as you would if this were a cash transaction.
So, now you're ready to hire the lawyer. What happens next? You need a lawyer... but the lawyer probably doesn't need landscaping.
You don't trade directly with the lawyer; instead you pay for the transaction with trade dollars. If you were the landscaper, you may have earned your trade dollars by upgrading the landscaping of a local restaurant...or by landscaping the home of a local business owner.

Read Barter Systems Success Stories
My husband and I have been members for a little over two years now, and we can�t say enough good things about�(barter). We have accomplished tasks that might have sat on the back burner for months, like power washing. We have replaced things like a much needed new awning, we have enjoyed staying at a lovely hotel in downtown DC and we plan on getting some painting done and carpet replaced soon.
We barter with gift certificates to our restaurant that are constantly bringing in new clientele. Restaurants depend largely on �word of mouth� advertising, and the barter system (you have in place) really helps in this area.

Adolfo�s Italian Restaurant / Near The Inlet In Ocean City MD
A barter exchange � for those who haven�t used one � combines the functions of classified advertising and a bank. Customers sign up to sell anything from drywall to dentistry, the exchange compiles the listings in a directory, and the buyers contact sellers directly or through a broker employed by the exchange.

Just wanted to write you and tell you what an outstanding trip and great time we had in Scotland and London! The folks at Maxjet were great and the flight and service could not have been any better. Also the accommodations and service at the Marcliffe at Pitfodels and Lennox Hotels exceeded our expectations. Really top notch! Don't hesitate recommending either hotels for future clients! Also, the folks at Barter International were great and called me while at both hotels to see if we had any problems or if we needed anything. Great follow through that was appreciated!
