BARTERCARD DORSET :: Member Testimonials

Interest Free Credit:

Stephen & Melissa Arnold — Sign & Print Graphix

"Our company, Sign & Print Graphix, has been a member of Bartercard Dorset since Jan 2002. Bartercard works exceptionally well for us, we spend and then work off our debt in quieter times

Bartercard is better than any credit card, as you buy the things you want or need and work it back into your everyday business. You can also sell things you don't need anymore to someone who does, with no risks on the auction site.

We furnished our complete lounge and dining room on Bartercard with a leather sofa and solid oak furniture. To pay it back we supplied vinyl graphics, banners and signs when we were less busy.

We have also bought clothing and toys for our children, eaten at restaurants and next month we are off an a complete holiday package for 6 to Cyprus which includes flights, limo to the airport, transfers and accomodation, all on Bartercard!

Barercard really works for us and can work for you too! "

Chairman — AFC Bournemouth

"AFC Bournemouth has been a member of Bartercard, the world's largest trade exchange since early 2003. Bartercard Dorset are also one of the club's sponsors. We are finding the system to be extremely useful to us, and I thought you might find it of interest too.

Bartercard enables us to purchase a very wide range of products and services without having to pay cash, and at the same time provides our suppliers with a guarantee that they will be paid promptly. Where we are looking for new suppliers, we have now adopted Bartercard as our preferred method of purchase.

In a nutshell the way the sytem works is that we pay Bartercard suppliers in Trade Pounds whcih they can use in turn to buy goods and services from any other Bartercard member. The Bartercard team also provide a purchasing and marketing service for members.

The approach is particularly useful for a football club like ourselves as we frequently have cash flow problems, and we have spare capacity in the form of empty seats on match days and the stadium facility on non-match days.

For more information regarding Bartercard please contact Geoff Shilton on 0845 263 6789, to more fully understand the business benefits of being a member."

Karen Hall - Director — Ultra Clean Blinds

"Dear Geoff, I just wanted to write to say thank you and let you know what a positive experience I've had with Bartercard so far.

Like many people I was sceptical - why would I want anything other than cash for my business? As a new business especially, I was concerned that we would spend time on Bartercard work to the detriment of everything else.

I have to say, my concerns were entirely unfounded. We have made some excellent contacts via our trade work, and it has only complimented our business. I have been able to save cash in my business and have purchased branded items, accomodation for an event and I have also enlisted a PR company. Bartercard has enabled me to grow my cash business, by spending Trade Pounds.

By far the biggest benefit is on a personal level. As many new business owners will appreciate - we work very long hours for very littel salary! With Barter I have been able to book a very well deserved and well needed holiday! I can't always pay myself in cash, but I can use Barter to treat mtyself evey now and again.

I find it very easy to recommend Bartercard, and you in particular Geoff, so I have also benefited from the very generous recommend a friend scheme. I will remain an advocate of Bartercard and look forward to many years of positive trading."
