Between pandemics, political upheavals, overseas wars, crazy weather, seismic shifts in culture, shortages, on top of being a full time worker, with families, homes, pets, and aging loved ones…it’s no wonder we all feel grumpy. To help, here is a list of the top 5 things that make you feel happy (almost) every time: http://ow.ly/TKQ950K8P9e

Stop throwing your money at marketing options that will "hopefully" bring you new customers and use an option that will guarantee it. Full price customers at that!

Check out this wonderful testimonial:

I started with IMS Barter in April of 2009, within 48 hours my broker was able to send me a handful of job bids. I've had no problem acquiring IMS dollars over the past years. I am able to spend the dollars wisely on dinners, advertising, and veterinary services. I most recently had my website upgraded by an IMS customer. I couldn't be happier. With the economy being difficult the last couple years, IMS has saved my business. I've managed to bank some money for those unforeseen incidents. IMS has also been a great way to get cash business as well. When we complete trade jobs, the trade members promote our business to their friends, relatives and other members in their community! My IMS trade broker works directly with us on all my jobs which helps me greatly, I always recommended IMS to my friends and family that can use their service. IMS is an essential part of our business! Thank you!

Empty tables mean lost revenue. You have the supplies and the staff there with 5 customers or 20 customers. Let us help fill those seats and use that extra revenue to offset costs and save cash!

Don't let empty tables happen at your restaurant! Contact your IMS Broker to see we can fill those seats!

Look at this wonderful testimonial:

Being in the service industry there are times when we are very busy and other times that are slower. During our slower times we’ve been able to generate trade business instead of having our staff idle. TechAnalysts has also generated business from referrals given to us by happy IMS members to businesses who were not part of IMS – these referrals paid in cash and not trade. If you are a business of any kind, we would highly recommend learning how IMS can become part of your business and marketing mix.
