Last year I held a virtual swap meet on the WAHM 2.0 blog and opened things up for readers to share what they have available to barter with the focus being on virtual services that they provide and products that they create or sell.
Bartering your valuable skills is a fantastic way to get the products and services you need to move forward with your business goals. It’s especially attractive with your business budget is tight!
Get What You Need!
Since this is Labor Day Weekend, and since last year’s swap meet was so successful, I think this is a perfect time to revive the fun and open up the comments for you to share what you have to offer and what you’re looking for in return.
Are you a skilled writer in need of a new blog header graphic? Offer to write a couple of killer articles for a graphic designer in need of content. Are you a virtual assistant in need of a gift for your best friend’s birthday? Offer to provide your services in exchange for personal care products.
The options are endless – just make your pitch and see what happens!
Let’s Swap!
Leave a comment below that shares what you have to offer for barter in enough detail that someone can make a decision about it. If you know exactly what you’d like to barter for, lay that out to. If you’re not sure, you can say that you’re open to creative offers.
Be sure to include contact information! Your Twitter user name would be good.
Who knows what sort of swap connections we’ll make this weekend
Let’s go for it!

I am always down for a barter or trade, especially in these times of economic struggle. I have actually been trying to barter some of the puzzle boxes I make as a hobby for some work lately, but no avail yet. I also wanted to say I like the look of your eBook you’re selling and will probably be buying it in the very near future for my lovely wife. Thank You for a great site. I am going to Blog Roll you if you don’t mind.
