Do you struggle with getting heads in the beds and people in the seats for your venue?  ITEX can help you with that! Whether you're a restaurant, hotel, bed and breakfast, Airbnb, fishing lodge, winery or brew pub, etc.

We all share some common goals and/or challenges. Is making sure that you have a constant flow of business coming in, making sure that your staff is busy, or being able to retain your staff, some common challenges that you face?

So, you may ask, how can the ITEX barter network help? Well, the network can help in multiple ways!

It can enable you to incentivize your employees through barter. We offer lots of travel options for trade. We also offer things that your employees might need like dental or chiropractors. Those are things that you can gift your employees, or you can incentivize them. We can also offer the ability for you to gift them with tickets to sporting events or theaters or other similar experiences.

The barter network is a very loyal network. So, as you build up your local area and you are willing to accept barter, then you have a base of clientele that are willing to trade with you on a regular basis. Those end up being ITEX members who other ITEX members utilize for hospitality services. Whether you're in a restaurant, resort, hotel, winery or brewery, they're going to tell their friends and family, right? And so you will naturally attract other cash businesses.

The benefits of being in the ITEX barter network are:

  • Having a network already at your fingertips, of loyal customers who are looking for your professional services.
  • Receiving more word of mouth referrals that are cash referrals from those barter network clients.
  • Typically barter network clients, because they're paying in barter, are going to spend more because they aren’t using all their cash.
  • A new market to help maximize your capacity - ITEX members do business with ITEX members. It's that simple. Growing your market share can be very tough. Tap into our member pool and watch your business grow.
  • Co-Op advertising dollars are a really great way to leverage ITEX to bring you more cash based clients too.

By being in the barter network, you can take some time away to go to any of the amenities that we have. You might need refrigeration work, plumbing work or electrical work. Well, we have members in the barter network that provide those services for your specific industry. So that's another great benefit of being in the ITEX barter network. You also have the ability to incentivize your employees with some of these offerings that we have within the ITEX barter network. There's a lot of value by being included as a barter trade partner within the ITEX barter network.
