Here at 2Active Design, our websites are valued at a certain cost depending on the desired features. This value could be monetary or the equivalent in goods or services. This trade relationship can be a great alternative in there tough economic times when businesses choose to barter instead of a monetary payment or as a partial payment.

A website is the most valuable marketing tool for a business and we want you to have one even if you cannot afford one. Many of our clients provide valuable goods or services that are as good as cash here at 2Active Design. This is a perfectly acceptable trade and we will consider exchanging a website for goods or services.

2Active Design provides consulting and web maintenance as a service and the website as the product. We also provide training for clients to easily manage their own website and maintenance service whenever needed. In this industry, it is not rare to establish a service trade rather than a financial payment.

Exchange systems provide new sales and higher volumes of business, conserving cash for essential expenditures, exchange of unproductive assets for valuable products or services, reduction of unit costs, and opening new outlets for excess inventory and unused capacity. Reciprocal trade finance enables a firm to buy using its incremental cost of production. So long as incremental revenue exceeds incremental cost, it is worth it for a firm to trade using a barter exchange.

The paragraph above basically states the advantages to trade. We see an advantage to business to business bartering for the following reasons:

• Exchange goods and services rather than cash
• Cash value fluctuates while services and goods value are more stable
• Cash remains available for both parties
• Possibility for exchanging referrals and marketing
• Improved efficiency when cash is excluded from the deal
• No dependence upon financial institutions and third parties for the trade
• Companies may be short on cash, but should never be short on service
• Very likely to be a productive partnership since both sides will get good deals

As previously mentioned, 2Active Design is very interested in potential trade partnerships within Honduras, primarily:

• Hotel Industries
• Advertising on Television, Radio or Print Media
• Restaurants
• Lawyers and Law Firms
• Marketers and Promoters
• Writers, Photographers, and Journalists

A successful barter trade could be established with people in any of those industries. Please get in touch to discuss further details.
