"We wanted to market
to a new segment that
wouldn't have heard of us
otherwise. The BizX
community allowed
us to do that."
Principals of Geoteaming began
discussing the benefits of barter with
BizXchange representatives at a networking
event, and decided that it would be a great
way to improve their business. Among
other things, they "saw the value in using
BizX to improve their cash flow," according
to Geoteaming President Adam Hitch.
Aside from wanting to conserve cash,
Geoteaming also had a desire to increase
their client base. "We wanted to market to
a new segment that wouldn't have heard
of us otherwise," says Hitch. "The BizX
community allowed us to do that."
Being marketed on BizX promotions
like the member website, Weekly eUpdate
and at Member MiXers is just the tip of the
iceberg. They also have an account manager
that is talking to other companies that might
benefit from the Geoteaming experience,
getting them some additional exposure. "Joe
(BizX Account Manager for Geoteaming)
helps to set up appointments with other
BizX members," says Hitch.
Cash conservation is important when
running a small business Hitch explained.
But he still has the desire to
take care of his employees.
"With BizX we were able to
splurge on a holiday party.
We rented limos, got a suite
at a Sonics game and went
out to dinner. We were able
to create a really memorable
event spending nothing but
BizX," something for which
they would not have
paid cash Hitch said.
Hitch enjoys working
with BizX members because
they are an additional source
of revenue that he would not
have had otherwise. And with the economy
slowing, he is hoping that more companies
will be looking to barter with Geoteaming
so they can offset some of their cash costs.
"I like the concept," Hitch says about
BizXchange. "We look forward to earning
and spending more BizX."
