Saturn Seattle / Tacoma Barter Membership Benefits
To gain the most from your Saturn Barter Membership, it is important to understand the complete barter program that Saturn Barter has designed. It includes many creative methods, both in printed material and personal support service provided by our Client Services Team to help make barter more profitable and beneficial for you and your company.
Businesses barter for everything from copiers, remodeling and printing to car repair, home furnishings and vacations and everything in between! You will be amazed at what you can accomplish with a Saturn Barter membership.
- Saturn Barter Serves As Your Barter Clearinghouse
Saturn Barter serves as a bank of sorts, establishing a currency or unit of payment called a Trade Dollar; thus eliminating the limitations of one-to-one direct trades. Participating businesses buy and sell in the barter network using Trade Dollars.
- Saturn Barter Provides Wholesale Buying Power
Trading through Saturn Barter allows you to acquire other products at the wholesale cost of your own products. This special purchasing power, achieved exclusively by trade exchange members, is often referred to as "barter leverage." For example, if you sell copy machines, jewelry, clothing or any other product that has a keystone markup (a pricing structure in which your wholesale cost is half of the retail selling price) you will be acquiring each of your trade dollars for a cash outlay of just fifty cents. Then, when you make a purchase using these trade dollars, you are paying half price for everything that you buy on trade.
- Saturn Barter Simplifies Your Record Keeping
Saturn Barter facilitates a computerized transfer of funds between the buyer and seller to tracks each barter sale using a specially designed software program. Saturn Barter provides complete record keeping for all of your barter transactions and issues each member a complete itemized monthly statement.
- Saturn Barter Constantly Markets Your Company
Saturn Barter Publication A publication that serves to update client listings in The Saturn Barter Trade Network and is mailed monthly.
SATURN BARTER Email News Providing up-to-the-minute promotions and new barter availabilities, the Saturn Barter broadcast email program keeps participants up to date on new members, seasonal offers and limited supply barter promotions.
- Saturn Barter Provides A Client Services Team To Meet Your Barter Needs
Our entire staff works constantly as a team to promote your products and services, plus fulfill your requests and answer any questions you may have. The Saturn Barter Client Services Team is constantly in contact with the membership, promoting barter opportunities and seeking new ways to better serve you.
- Saturn Barter Assists As Your Purchasing Agent
Once your account has generated new sales, you then have trade dollars to spend. This means you can purchase items for your business such as office equipment, advertising, promotional items, client entertainment, auto repair, even travel with your Saturn Barter Trade Dollars, while freeing up cash for other purposes - all paid for with new business from Saturn Barter . Personal luxuries like jewelry, home improvements, clothing and vacations may also be accommodated with barter.
- Saturn Barter Works To Satisfy Your Needs
A TPR (Trade Purchase Request) is processed each time Saturn Barter receives a specific request from a participant for something not currently available in our barter network. The Saturn Barter Sales Team uses these specific criteria to recruit new barter accounts to fulfill your need. The barter industry is a very supply and demand oriented business and your needs help us to supply the demand of the network.
- Saturn Barter Provides You With A National Barter Network
Saturn Barter 's national affiliation with The BANC (Barter Association National Currency), provides a convenient medium for local clients to trade with thousands of other businesses nationwide, expanding the possibilities for all involved. It opens the door to a broader range of products and services, as well as a greater marketing platform for your company.
- Saturn Barter Furnishes An Interactive Barter Website
Log into the Saturn Barter Website as a Member and access information on your Saturn Barter Trade Account, view a variety of barter promotions, search barter vendors for needed products and services, review special barter offerings, process authorization requests and much more.

If you know a business owner that you feel would benefit from our barter program tell them, then tell us! Our best salespeople are our satisfied clients. We'll contact your associate(s) and each time one joins Saturn Barter, you'll be awarded a $50 Saturn Barter Referral Bonus.

Barter Membership Investment
In order to achieve this wealth of benefits, a minimal membership fee and monthly administration fee are charged to each member, which sets up and facilitates your trade account. Depending on the plan selected, we are also paid a cash percentage on all member sales and purchases. This fee for service provides each client with incremental sales opportunities to new customers, leveraged purchase opportunities using your cost of goods and alternate financing opportunities.
Successful
Barter Trading
Habits
Be
Flexible: Barter
will
always
deliver
what you
want and
what you
need…as
long as
you're
willing
to be
flexible
with
your
wish
list. At
SATURN
BARTER
we have
thousands
of
products
and
services
available.
Something
for
everyone.
Be
willing
to
change
suppliers,
maybe
travel a
little
further,
in other
words….think
out of
the box.
You'll
like the
results.
Be
Creative: Look
beyond
the
obvious.
With
barter
you'll
find new
ways of
doing
things
and
they'll
all save
you
cash.
Why not
pay your
suppliers
with
barter?
After
all
you're
doing
business
with
them,
shouldn't
they do
business
with
you? Are
you in a
tight
bidding
situation
to get a
job?
Offer to
take
part of
your
payment
in
trade.
When it
comes
time to
think of
employee
bonuses,
use
trade,
it goes
a lot
further
than
cash.
Be
Patient: All
things
come to
those
that
wait!
Unfortunately,
not
everything
is
available
all the
time. At
SATURN
BARTER
when you
give us
a little
extra
time to
find
what
you're
looking
for, we
can
produce
some
amazing
results.
Be
Quick: While
all
things
come to
those
that
wait, a
lot of
great
opportunities
will
pass you
by if
you wait
too long
when
special
offers
present
themselves.
Know a
good
thing
when you
see
it…or
your
broker
presents
it.
Think
Trade: Anyone
can pay
cash,
use a
credit
card or
write a
check.
But if
you get
into the
habit of
calling
Saturn
Barter
before
you do
any of
those
things,
you'll
have a
lot more
cash in
your
bank
account
at the
end of
the
month.
Always
call and
ask
first,
we'll
tell you
exactly
what's
available
right
now or
ask how
long
before
you
really
need it
and then
we'll go
out and
try to
find
what you
are
looking
for.
