REWARD STAFF AND BUILD CUSTOMER LOYALTY
We use barter to promote customer loyalty. When a customer spends over $1000 within a certain time frame, we reward them with certificates that we purchase on barter. This motivates them to continue being loyal customers. We also pay our employees in barter dollars as part of their regular salaries. Everyone has certain expenses – everyone needs a haircut, or a mover, or likes going out to a restaurant or spa once in a while. Employees can purchase these things and more using barter dollars. I generate barter dollars by selling excess inventory and my cost per barter dollar is quite low. Paying staff barter dollars gives me a break on my payroll, while allowing me to reward my staff.
