eXmerce Exhibits at the Calgary Chamber of Commerce's Small Business Week

This evening we exhibited at the Calgary Chamber of Commerce's Business After Hours Tradeshow. It was a great opportunity for our team to educate small business owners about the benefits of bartering and how it can be used as a cost-savings and marketing tool to grow one's business.

We were happy to see some of our members in attendance - Sunny, Romaicia, and Brandon with Seen My Ad and Mahmud with Integrity Force. It was also nice running into Ryan Townend, CEO of William Joseph who was recently awarded by the Calgary Chamber of Commerce with the Rogers Innovation award. Congrats Ryan and his team at WJ.

Overall, it was great event! We thank the many people who dropped by our booth and we look forward to exhibiting at a future Chamber event.

Five Star Events Makes Quality Contacts

Five Star Events has been a member of Exmerce Barter Inc. for 3 years. In that time, I have had the pleasure to work with Nelson on several Exmerce events, and other members on their weddings and special events.

I have also benefited from being a member, as I have a great way to swap my barter dollars for actual cash – it's a "win/win" situation for my business for sure!

I have made some quality contacts, and have had the opportunity to utilize other member's services that I wouldn't have otherwise been able to purchase, if I was paying cash. I get my web and graphic design on barter, letterhead and business cards on barter, and I have recently undergone a marketing campaign through Cold Calling Co.

I thank Laurie Climan of Laurie Climan Studios and The Chocolate Fountain for introducing me to Nelson and the Exmerce team!

Ethopian Restaurant in Calgary Offers a Unique Menu and Saves Money Using Barter

For jaded diners who cannot stand the thought of another steak sandwich, the Marathon, in trendy Kensington, offers spicy and exotic concoctions of Ethiopian cuisine. Served in the traditional Ethiopian manner, the food consists of dozens of exotic pastes served on flat round bread, which does double-duty as both a plate and utensil. The pastes are exciting concoctions of lamb, beef, chicken, lima beans and vegetable mixes. There are full vegetarian combinations available as well. Meals are generally communal affairs, with up to five people eating off of one large round-bread.

As a business, Marathon also saves cash by trading excess inventory in open tables using barter. This allows them to convert this open table space into trade dollars to be used on key expenses associated with running a business.

Bartering Relieved Sherry's Cash Flow Issues

A business in the start up phase usually has one major challenge, CASH FLOW! In this regard, eXmerce has made an incredible difference to Creative Impetus and to my personal life as well. I am involved in a number of endeavours, to include a Marketing and Communications company. It was for me, an incredible luxury to meet with Riccio Law, knowing that I could barter legal fees in respect to a number of company formations. That has been the biggest business boon to date for me, along with the printing I have utilized for a number of projects.

It is the personal level where I really have felt the impact of my eXmerce membership. I am a single mother and given the tight budget surrounding the launch of a new company, extras are basically unheard of. In my case, dental was a big issue and definitely something to be put off until "I can afford it". With eXmerce I can afford it... NOW! It has been a huge thing for me as I definitely would have alotted that cash to another "necessity" and eXmerce has allowed me to look after myslef! The same goes for cleaning. Personal cleaning for a home-based start up? Are you kidding? However, having my home clean and my time saved in the process has opened up more time for my son and a better space for me to create my business in.

I have only just got started! I made a list of everything I can use from our barter network and intend to make it to the bottom of the list soon. Cash is king and I am happy for every penny I don't spend!

Randy Saves Cash and Builds Customer Base

I have been trading my service business for years...just ask any contractor that was parked in my lot. If I saw a plumbing van or another trade or service I required, it was nothing for me to take a jog out to their vehicle and make a pitch! I was trading go-carting for plumbing, or cleaning for a birthday party and mini-golf...you name it! I have always traded and my business has been much better for it. Not only has it allowed me to save cash on essential services, I have built relationships and customers.

Now enter eXmerce and Nelson and Jacce. eXmerce provides me with an organized business-to-business forum to make my trades on, and it has sure saved me a lot of running in the parking lot! Utilizing a catalogue of members to contact and make the trades I need has been easy and has allowed for more successful transactions, as businesses are "pre-qualified" to barter and I don't have to do any convincing! Sometimes it was tough to make a deal if the business owner wasn't interested to come and play at Kart World.

The beauty of this system is that they can use their trade dollars on any of the hundred members of Exmerce and whether they desire my service or not, there is something they need on the system.

eXmerce Jump-Started Charlie's Catering Business

This year I made the move into my own catering business, leaving my tenure as an executive chef. I had a vision for where I wanted to take my business but faced all the usual obstacles a start up business encounters.

One of the biggest drivers for a catering business is word of mouth, and being new to Calgary, this presented a significant challenge. Becoming a member of eXmerce created a quick fix for this issue; jump starting my network by exposing me to over 100 members in eXmerce's barter community. Every event we have catered has lead to others, it is that simple. I have also received cash referrals from barter members! The power of word of mouth stemming from such a large starting point has created a domino effect for my business.

I am really pleased with the organized barter system.And an added boon has been the cash I have saved with Exmerce. I have used printing, cellular, web design and advertising services to date, all of which would have impacted my cash flow nominally. Instead, I have taken it "on trade" and used my cash for things like equipment purchases, overhead and staffing, which has been awesome for my start up state. By the way, the ad I placed in this month's Calgary Living on barter has already led to cash business!

For a very small fee I have been able to accomplish a lot and have definitely received great value!

Headquarters Management Uses Barter For Employee Incentives

Headquarters Mgmt Ltd is one of the original members of eXmerce, having joined in the fall of 2004.

The concept of organized barter was foreign to us but the team at eXmerce showed us all of the benefits of using a barter service. Our barter dollars are used for employee incentives such as giving them a percentage of barter sales to use as they see fit, along with feeding them from the many restaurants in the club to giving them certificates for the massage therapist and beauty treatments from the hair salons and esthetics members. We also have made quick work of our barter dollars on home and office renovations, health care, car repairs and maintenance to name just a few.

Our eXmerce clients have become trusted alliances and have also referred cash business to us.

Our business has only benefited from being a member of eXmerce. The staff of eXmerce is always professional and willing to find a solution to our requests. Erin, Tim, Mary, Lou-Wanda & Kellie thank Exmerce for all of your service! Thank you.

I hope all of you enjoyed your holidays and happy new years! We wish you much success and blessings for 2011.

For the new year, we will be introducing several new initiatives that we believe will help to increase your sales and better promote your products and services to the members of the eXmerce community. As one of those first initiatives, starting tomorrow we will be featuring one eXmerce member per day to promote Monday through Friday. If you have a special barter offering or would simply like for us to promote you, please send us your information, including 1 photo in jpg format tofelixchow@exmerce.com.

The daily barter promotions will keep you informed of great barter deals and will also serve as a reminder of things you can purchase on barter.

We hope this new service will be of value to you.

Yours Sincerely,

The eXmerce Team.
