BBX - A WHITE COLLAR FRANCHISE

BBX is a barter trading company. The origins of barter, exchanging one article for another without using money, go back thousands of years and was the means by which all commercial transactions were conducted before the introduction of notes & coins, and later cheques, credit/debit cards, etc. to facilitate sales and purchase transactions.

The system of bartering is alive and well today but has become much more sophisticated, with trade exchanges acting as the regulators and the generators of trade between member businesses (merchants) in what is essentially a cashless trading economy of its own. A separate, unique micro (barter) economy operating within a traditional macro (cash) economy.

A trade exchange uses trade dollars, which have par or equal book value with the local currency, to assign value to transactions that take place between members. The exchange acts as a third party record keeper, similar to a bank, and trade is open and promoted between all exchange members rather than simply direct exchanging between two parties.

The role of a Franchisee is to recruit new members to the trading system and service their needs on a day-to-day basis. Opportunities exist in metropolitan areas of all Australian States and Territories plus the major NZ Cities and Provinces, as well as Master Franchise possibilities throughout South East Asia and other parts of the world.
