How Bartering Can Hurt Your Business

Welcome to season six of the Coach Pony podcast!


We are here to help you get paid to coach!


In this very cheesy eighties-themed season of the podcast, join
me, Christie Mims, a career and business coach, and Bobbi Palmer,
a dating coach, as we answer your burning questions about your
coaching business. Bobbi and I have built six and seven-figure
businesses of our own, and we’ve learned a thing or two along the
way. And now, we’re sharing all that knowledge with you.


Today’s caller wants to know if it’s ever a good idea to barter
services, and boy, do we have thoughts.


We’re going to dig into when it can work, why it usually doesn’t,
and how to make sure you’re actually getting a good deal.


Listen to the full episode to hear about:


Why you should only trade services when the offer is
something you actually need

How bartering can go sour when you don’t set and stick to
expectations and boundaries

Other ways you can stretch your dollars and set priorities
for spending when you’re just starting out

Why you have to treat a barter like any other business
agreement
