Commenting on the strategic decision to join the Bartercard network Maddy Reddy, CEO of Content Syndicate said, “Businesses have a tendency to spend a lot of money on infrastructure costs as well as day-to-day operational costs. This initiative is targeted at helping thousands of small and medium-sized businesses and start-ups globally, who need to get their business message across through quality content without any financial strain.”
More than 55,000 businesses in 13 countries can now utilise Content Syndicate’s range of business writing services, which include everything from newsletters, brochures, translation, reports, press releases, corporate identity kits, copywriting and range of other services in more than 200 languages instantly through Content Syndicate’s secure web-portal.
Bartercard is a unique service network that is funded not by cash but by goods and services exchanged or bartered with other Bartercard members. Unlike traditional credit, debit cards or cheques, a Bartercard transaction requires member business to exchange goods and services with other member businesses for Trade Dollars. These Trade Dollars are credited to the member’s Bartercard account when the goods or services are exchanged. Members can use their Bartercard Trade Dollars to purchase goods and services from any other Bartercard member.
According to Dun & Bradstreet there are 83 million businesses in over 200 countries – a majority of them are SMBs with limited budget and resources for advertising, marketing, PR or website content but need to stand out in the market place.
Commenting on the unique initiative, Fadi Dabbagh, Managing Director, Bartercard UAE: “Globally and locally our members save valuable cash-flow and boost their profitability by taking advantage of the Bartercard network. We welcome Content Syndicate onboard to provide their content services, which are needed by every business to get their message across effectively.”
