Why are you spending cash?

Do you think, “Is this available on trade?” before
you spend cash? A client recently called and said
their car broke down and they spent $200 in cash
on a tow truck and $1,500 cash on a transmission repair.
And I asked, “Why didn’t you call Florida Barter?” Their
response was, “I didn’t think of it.”
So our client spent $1,700 cash and could have used their
trade dollars and saved the cash. Florida Barter has tow
trucks and transmission shops on trade!
This happens every day! So why are you spending cash
instead of calling your broker first?
Why are you spending cash?
I have too much cash.
My family doesn’t cost much, so I have lots of cash.
My spouse never spends money.
I work hard for my cash and like to throw it away.
Employees don’t cost much so I keep lots of cash.
Why spend your trade dollars?
I save my hard earned cash.
I can travel more often.
I enjoy more entertainment.
I can advertise more.
I can spend on health care for my family.
I can give trade dollar bonuses to my employees.
I would rather spend trade dollars and save cash.
