Increased Sales without discounting, guaranteed!

The reason most businesses join bartercard is to increase their sales. Isn’t that what everyone wants? it’s why we go networking, why we advertise and its generally the reason we went into business in the first place – because we thought we could earn more (by selling more) than working for someone else.

When you barter using bartercard you swap your services at their full value, there are many discount schemes now being promoted, they generally get you to heavily discount your product/service and charge you a fee on top. The theory being that the new clients who use the discount scheme will want to come back and pay full price, it could work, but I suspect many people just take the special offers.

Bartercard now have 75,000 worldwide members, so there are plenty of businesses to swap with and Bartercard give a guarantee that they will get sales for your business. So if you want more sales, why not give it a go?

Could Referralkey.com work for your business?

In the last few days I have started receiving lots of requests to become a colleague on Referral Key. Its Free, its measurable, you set a price you are prepared to pay to get successful referrals, so it sounds pretty good to me, but is it any better than any other form of social networking? I am always happy to refer business to people I know without looking for financial reward because I believe in the ‘Givers gain’ philosophy.

As is often the case, the most valuable business relationships are generated by word of mouth. Working as a Director of the Southern Electric Traction Group C.I.C in London, Bicknell Business Advisers Limited were recommended to me by a … More fellow business owner. I am truly grateful for that recommendation. I can honestly say that the guidance and support we have received from the team have been instrumental to our work and we would be in a considerably lesser position without them.
I haven't the words to fully express Bicknell's input, but perhaps the phrase "no question goes unanswered, no effort is spared" best sums up their approach to client support. I would wholeheartedly recommend Steve and his colleagues in any advisory capacity and am delighted that we have found such a professional, efficient and courteous company with which to do business.
