Best Barter Software?

June 28th, 2011 by Alan Mink No comments »

We think you should make the decision who is best after looking at all your options. One says they are the best yet have less than 5 exchanges in the US after several years in business. Guess most exchanges do not agree. Another says they are the emerging leader yet after 2 years in business they are still one of the smallest suppliers of software. Guess not too many exchanges agree with that either. Still another claims to be the ultimate barter management software, this after failing at least twice before as a barter software supplier?

Need we go on? Check out any or all of the barter softwares available but do not make your decision without at least comparing to The Trade Alliance barter software, chosen by over 50 exchanges in just the last year.  www.barter-software.net

Enhanced Regional settings implemented

May 27th, 2011 by Alan Mink No comments »

Regions, a newly implemented program is received by all exchanges with great enthusiasm.  Exchanges as well as The Trade Alliance can create a region that will include any member of any exchange that fits the criteria for that region. Example – A region created is Central Florida. It contains members from several different exchanges that are in that “Region”. The manager of an exchange in that region determines what members he wants in that region, excluding local only designated members or they can include them. A member of those exchanges can now view member goods and services available by all members of all exchanges in The Trade Alliance, only the members that are within their exchange, or any member that is in their “Region”

Through April growth in total members, new exchanges using the software and sales in the network continue at a rapid pace. 18 additional software users this year, a large increase in transaction volume compared to the same period last year and a total membership increase as well. 2011 will be a record 8th year in a row.

Compare!

Another software supplier, Barter 21 a new entry into the software for barter companies, claims to be the new leader in barter software, a self anointed “title”. Compare below a few of the major categories of business available in their network and that of  us, The Trade Alliance, who have been offering the leading barter software since 2004.

Accommodations:  The Trade Alliance – 405                 Barter 21 – 40

Automotive: The Trade Alliance – 658                             Barter 21 – 18

Health and Wellness: The Trade Alliance - 1493           Barter 21 – 16

Home and Outdoors: The Trade Alliance – 1421           Barter 21 – 59

These same kind of disparities exist in all other categories too and while we are sure they are increasing in the number of members in various categories so too is The Trade Alliance, the true leader in barter software.

The Trade Banc is changing it’s name

April 22nd, 2011 by Alan Mink No comments »

The Trade Banc will be changing it’s name to The Trade Alliance.

The name change is being done for 2 reasons – (1) to eliminate any confusion with Trade Bank International of Atlanta (2) The Trade Alliance better shows what we really are, an alliance of independently owned trade exchanges that, because of the large size of exchanges using our software, can freely trade with all the other exchanges and their members in the Trade Alliance.

Barter First in Orlando posts impressive results for 2010

March 5th, 2011 by Alan Mink No comments »

In the dire world and US economy Barter First in Orlando is a perfect example of how barter can dramatically improve a business or personal economy by the use of barter as more and more businesses realize how much positive effect barter can have on their lives as conserving cash becomes more and more difficult without barter.

 Barter First experienced a net growth in membership of over 40% last year – 2009 to 2010 (Existing members + New members- Members going out of business) A net cash income increase in excess of $40,000.00.  They  also added many new accounts last year and 44 so far this year and have increased staff by several new brokers to handle this growth.

This growth is even more impressive when you consider that this is an established exchange with well over 1000 members.

Color coded members list in the manager so at a glance they can see the status of a member. The ability to pick and choose what items in the Marketplace they want their members to see or have access to.
