I
would like to thank all of you for helping us get
through the first six months.
A lot has happened since we started, which has
made it a little slow, but in the long run all of the
layoffs and the war are going to make barter even more
attractive to businesses, both small and large.
I
have changed the rule on fees to help sign-up and keep
smaller businesses as members.
I am giving the option of waving the $15.00
monthly cash fee and charging 6.5% on sales and
purchases rather than the current 5%.
If you think this would benefit your business,
let me know. As
we grow and can get you more business, you will have the
option to change this twice a year, in January, and in
July.
Please
read your newsletters.
Beginning with the March newsletter any members
that are more than 30 days past due on their cash fees
will be listed in the newsletter and their trade
vouchers will not be honored by Central Barter without
prior approval. In
addition, the rules I mailed last month state that there
will be a $10.00 late fee charge for accounts more than
30 days past due. This will become effective, and will
be charged on March 1, 2002 to any account that is more
than 30 days past due. If you did not get a copy of the
rules let me know so I can send you one.
These rules are intended to make the bartering
experience fair for all of us.
If you feel that a rule should be changed let me
know and I will take it to the Board of Directors for
discussion. The
rules have been made to make the Central Barter
experience pleasant for all of us.
If you feel that you can’t barter using these
rules let me know and we will try to find other options,
or close your account and help you spend your trade
dollars.
