One of the major problems new restaurants owners encounters is attracting people, by joining eXmerce, members of eXmerce will go to the restaurant, recommend the restaurants to their cash paying friends therefore allowing the owners to trade their unsold capacity, empty tables, for the products, services and advertising they need to reduce cash expenses and increase sales.
When someone starts their own business, what first comes is the passion to be an entrepreneur and what usually comes with this passion is an area of expertise to build a business upon. Since the beginning of time, people have been trading their expertise for one another. To barter means also to share, By trading with one another you build a form of trust and you do not cheat someone with whom you will need to barter again. eXmerce strives to become that win-win for business where all business will benefit, and that no one loses out.
