Think TradeFirst.com this season!

This is also a great opportunity to shop at TradeMart for appliances, furniture, light bulbs, office supplies, toys, tools, luggage, bikes, sports team apparel, arcade games, and countless other possibilities!		    

TradeFirst.com was the featured business in an episode of Your Business (aired nationally Sunday Morning on MSNBC) promoting the strengths of barter in today's economy. Filming took place in our Oak Park, Michigan headquarters.  The segment will include  member interviews for the story as cameramen follow the path of a large trade. 

Points stressed by our business owners regarding the success of their membership include the following:

- Barter exchanges provide great networking.  Not only will you attract new customers, but bartering will expand relationships with other like minded, successful entrepreneurs

- Barter Exchanges help you conserve cash by analyzing all your expenditures and promoting trade vendors whenever possible

- The value of cash referrals gained from trading is huge

- Understand Trade is a TOOL that must be managed to garner its full value.

- A fantastic variety of high quality, fairly priced goods and services are available.
