Why Barter?
Why business owners choose to dedicate a small percentage of their business to barter:
Grow Faster
Businesses are often limited in expansion through marketing by their budgets or financing. Get marketing your business needs now, by trading deliverables instead of cash.
No Big Exchanges
We prefer to operate direct with our customers. No barter exchanges, association fees, transaction fees, alternative currencies, or complex trading systems. Your market rate for our market rate.
Build New Business Relationships
Opening up a small percentage of your output to barter quickly expands your potential customer and referral base.
Refreshing
We have found that two business owners working together provides a refreshing "dynamic", rather than simple client-provider interactions. Both parties take on a 'partnership' mindset to make sure each other's transactions go well.
Our Services
With an unlimited trade budget (subject to approval), consider this your menu, and our agency as your maître d'. Order what you want and need. Alternatively, Loaded Bases Marketing often gives free custom strategic evaluations and recommendations for the projects that will help meet your goals the quickest.
Email Marketing
Even after a full decade, email leads in ROI at $1 invested, $36 ROI. We have huge capabilities for email warming, sending, domains, and a giant database of millions of businesses and consumers.
SEM
Search Engine Marketing captures your customers who are looking for services or products like yours. We can build out excellent, robust campaigns that will make your competitors feel like giving up.
Digital Ads
Reach your targeted customers where they spend time online. Working with our agency not only gives you access to major, and specialty/exclusive inventories, but also advanced AI tech. Reach anyone with built-for-you campaigns as sophisticated as the Fortune 500s, that DIY'ers cannot access.
SEO
Similiar to SEM, except clicks are free. We do what it takes to get Google, Bing, etc., to recommend your company when your customers make relevant, high-intent searches.
Competitive Intelligence
Our specialty. Imagine your successful competitors telling you their secret marketing strategies. What worked, what didn't, and what they're investing into now. Save years of frustration, and get world class strategy.
Direct Mail
Direct Mail can still produce huge ROI. With our database of millions of businesses and consumers, plus printing and mailing capabilities, you can start conversations with your target market, fast.
Design & Asset Development
So many businesses lose customers because they appear unprofessional. It's so basic, but often missed. Use our agency to build out credibility, branding, customer experience, and even lead generation assets, and do it all on barter.
& More
When asked what kind of marketing we do, our answer is "whatever it takes." Each business has a unique market, target demographic, competitive landscape, challenges, and opportunities. See the other capabilities our agency can deliver to get you exactly what you need.
Case Study - Recent Project Examples
Email Marketing
When a long time landscape architect in Orange County wanted to see if their business could escape the pay-per-lead hamster wheel, they engaged Loaded Bases Marketing for a full email campaign. That included building a custom lead generation asset for their target market (that mined data on competitor pricing in their market for common project sizes, and showed how our client could beat those prices), assembled tens of thousands of email addresses with advanced demographic targeting like zipcode, age, homeownership, and age of home. Finally, all these people were sent emails without touching the client's longtime domain reputation. They now generate leads directly, and are armed with strategic advice on how to generate leads on search engines
Competitive Intelligence
When two partners started an electrical services company in California, they were brand new to the world of marketing to consumers, and were not certain how long-established players landed large commercial contracts. Within 2 weeks, they were shown exactly how 3 specific competitors (that they chose) grew over time, what marketing campaigns & messaging those competitors tried, abandoned, and continued with. We also uncovered complex business development systems for commercial contracts, and how those had changed over time. They were very surprised at the level of detail that was unearthed, and left with a roadmap full of insight that saved them decades of time and waste from trial & error.
Marketing Technology Consulting
A long established Orange County Trade School needed booking software to keep track of different types of appointments. With vendors offering complex booking software at upwards of $99 per month, they engaged Loaded Bases Marketing to custom install a hosted booking solution that has zero monthly costs, and made a logistical nightmare go away completely. They now own semi-custom software and still receive on-demand support, which increases their student retention and other services. When tech infrastructure upgrades, content changes, and strategy recommendations are needed, it's no stress. They have Loaded Bases Marketing on speed dial, and use it to get solutions quick.
