DISCOVER HOW TO BEAT THE RECESSION
WITH ECBE!
In today's economic climate, it's rare for a company to have too much business.
In fact, most companies have unsold stock or spare capacity. There are always
items a business needs to buy, however, disappointing sales can mean a shortage
of cash - that's where exchanging goods or services through the ECBE Network can
be most valuable.
Exchanging goods or services (commonly known as bartering) is the original
business system known to man - it is however, alive and growing within the
global business community with over 600,000* businesses alone in the USA and
many more worldwide, including 70%* of the top 500 fortune companies.
Exchanging not only
allows your business to save cash, it helps your business increase sales and
helps you get goods or services you genuinely need quickly and efficiently - it
is the key to an efficient, smooth-running business. (*figures from I.R.T.A.) |

HOW IT WORKS
ECBE Network acts as a clearinghouse for
the trade of excess capacities, goods and services and works through a
combination of manual clearing, online e-commerce trading.
It's a simple system all you need to benefit from the ECBE Network is an open
mind and a good business head. If the Trading Rules are followed, the ‘sale’ of
your goods, downtime or services through the ECBE Network is accountable as
cash.
You receive payment in Trade Credits in advance, and every transaction
you make is guaranteed with payment warranted as cash – so there’s no worry over
bad debts. But the best thing about this service is that it costs you nothing
until you get exactly what you want. And even then, there is only a small
commission fee for ensuring the deal goes smoothly.
