Businesses operating under a retail trade model offer the same products and services currently sold in the cash market at up to regular retail prices to other clients in the trade network. Most products and services are traded on a full-barter basis. This model also allows clients to conserve cash and generate new business.

The retail barter system brings products and/or services to completely new markets ­ increasing sales as a result of the new business brought by other clients in the barter system. Savvy traders always look for a barter source before purchasing items and services for cash.

Retail barter allows businesses to maintain full profit margins since most deals are conducted on a retail-to-retail basis. This system also conserves cash because it allows clients to use current inventory or excess time as the method of paying for the goods and services needed by the business. New cash business is also generated by retail barter since satisfied trade customers often make cash referrals.

Clients can use trade credits as payment to participating vendors, as bonuses for key employees, as a means to enhance employee benefit programs, and even as tax deductible donations. The application and benefits of barter within any business are limitless and can be as far-reaching and creative as one's own imagination.
