How to Unlock Hidden Revenue with GETS Trade:
GETS Trade, a revolutionary platform designed to help businesses like yours turn unsold capacity and dead capital into profitable incremental sales. In this post, we’ll explore how GETS Trade can unlock hidden value within your business, driving new revenue streams and optimizing your operations for greater success.

Understanding Unsold Capacity, Incremental Sales, and Dead Capital:
In today's competitive market, every resource counts. Many businesses struggle with unsold capacity and dead capital, which can significantly impact profitability. GETS Trade transforms these idle assets into valuable incremental sales, ensuring no opportunity for profit is left unexploited. Our innovative platform helps you identify and leverage these hidden opportunities to enhance your financial health and overall business performance.

The Cost and Profit Dynamics:
Understanding the cost and profit dynamics of your business is crucial. Fixed costs, such as rent and salaries, remain constant regardless of sales volume, while variable costs fluctuate with production. When products or services go unsold, they contribute to dead capital, leading to lost profit opportunities. GETS Trade offers a solution by turning this idle capacity into productive assets. By participating in our trade exchange, you can convert these unsold items into incremental sales, thereby improving your bottom line without additional cash outlay.

Maximizing Potential Revenue:
Imagine your business operating at full capacity, with every product sold and every service utilized. Now, consider the reality of unsold products and services that currently yield no income. GETS Trade empowers you to transform this untapped potential into actual revenue. Our platform facilitates the trade of unsold products, ensuring you capitalize on every opportunity for profit. By doing so, you can increase your overall revenue and enhance your business's financial stability.

Transforming Unsold Products with GETS Trade:
At GETS Trade, we understand the pain of unsold inventory and excess capacity. Our platform allows you to trade these idle assets within the GETS Trade Exchange, turning them into valuable trade credits. These credits can be used to cover operational expenses, reducing your reliance on cash and improving liquidity. This strategic approach ensures that your business remains financially healthy while optimizing resource utilization. The GETS Trade Exchange thus provides a dual benefit: converting unsold capacity into income and replacing cash expenses with trade credits.

Addressing Excess Capacity and Dead Capital:
Excess capacity can be a significant burden on any business. Whether it's empty hotel rooms, vacant restaurant seats, or idle stock, these underperforming assets represent lost opportunities. GETS Trade offers a comprehensive solution by enabling you to trade these assets for what you need. This process not only generates additional income but also reduces dead capital, ensuring your business operates at maximum efficiency. By turning excess capacity into productive assets, you can boost your profitability and drive sustainable growth.

Leveraging GETS Trade for Financial Health:
Engaging with the GETS Trade Exchange opens up a world of opportunities for your business. You can attract new customers, generate extra income, and improve your cash flow. The platform provides interest-free credit, additional sales channels, and enhanced cash profits. It’s designed to work alongside your existing cash business, offering a complementary approach to financial growth. By leveraging GETS Trade, you can secure new revenue streams and strengthen your business's financial health, all without interfering with your primary cash operations.

Utilizing What You Have to Get What You Need:
GETS Trade empowers you to convert a wide range of unsold and unused assets into valuable trade credits. Whether it's vacant hotel rooms, unbilled work hours, or excess inventory, our platform helps you turn these resources into something beneficial. These trade credits can then be used to acquire products and services necessary for your business growth, from new inventory to marketing services. This approach not only maximizes the use of your current assets but also helps you obtain what you need without additional cash expenses, improving your overall financial health.


The Double-Edged Sword of Trade Credits: 

A Win/Win for Buyers and Sellers:
One of GETS Trade's biggest secrets is understanding the double-edged sword of trade credits, which creates a win/win situation for both buyers and sellers. 

Here's how: 
For buyers: trade credits are earned at an incremental cost of goods sold.  For example, 100 trade credits earned may have different direct costs to each business as below:

  • £10 for the service based industry, Hotels, Legal, Accounting, Financial, Software, Consulting, Marketing, Real Estate Services, Event Planning, Training, subscriptions etc.        
  • £25 for a food based business, Restaurants, Take Away, Food Truck, Bakery, Frozen Food, Coffee Shops, Juice Bars, Hot Dog Carts, Sushi Bars, Indian or Thai takeaway etc.
  • £50 for a retail goods based business,  Clothing and Apparel Stores, Gift Shop, Stationery and Office Supply Stores, Furniture and Home Goods  etc.  
  • £75 for a goods based business,  Automotive Dealers, Parts and Repair Shops, Pharmacies, Gas Stations, Grocery Stores, Home Appliances, Smartphones and Tablets etc.

This means that for buyers, using trade credits can almost feel like free money. Every time they use trade credits, they essentially get a built-in discount. This lowers the cost barrier, making buyers more flexible and less price-sensitive. They perceive greater value, which in turn fosters loyalty and repeat business.

For sellers: the benefits are just as significant. Unsold capacity or products represent missed sales opportunities. By participating in the GETS Trade Exchange, sellers can attract buyers who see trade credits as advantageous. These buyers are more likely to spend their credits, providing sellers with revenue that would otherwise be lost. Sellers can convert these credits into goods and services they need, often at a lower cost than cash transactions. This dynamic not only helps clear unsold inventory but also builds a loyal customer base eager to take advantage of trade credit deals.

One of Those Rare Times in Business: 
In essence, this is one of those rare times in business where both parties can "have their cake and eat it too." Buyers enjoy significant discounts and sellers transform idle capacity into new income streams.


The Impact of Inflation and Economic Hardships:

 Inflation and the cost of living crisis:
In the current economic climate, both consumers and businesses are feeling the pinch. Inflation and the "cost of living crisis" have led to reduced disposable income for consumers and increased operational costs for businesses. This "cost of doing business" challenge means sellers often struggle to attract and secure enough sales from cash customers.

What Does This Mean for Sellers?
When businesses face unsold capacity or products, it typically means they haven't managed to attract enough cash-paying customers

The reasons can be multifaceted:

  • Economic Downturns: Reduced consumer spending power due to inflation and economic hardships means fewer people are willing or able to spend money on non-essential goods and services.
  • Increased Competition: In saturated markets, attracting customers can be challenging, especially when competing on price alone.
  • Changing Consumer Preferences: Shifts in consumer behavior, such as a move towards more budget-friendly or essential items, can leave businesses with unsold inventory.

GETS Trade provides a strategic solution to these challenges. By converting unsold capacity into trade credits, businesses can tap into a new pool of buyers who view these credits as almost free money. For example:

  • Hotels: Instead of leaving rooms empty, hotels can earn trade credits that have a minimal direct cost (e.g., £10 for 100 credits). These credits can then be used to offset expenses, such as maintenance or supplies.
  • Restaurants: Rather than having vacant tables, restaurants can trade meal credits at a low incremental cost (e.g., £25 for 100 credits). This influx of trade customers helps cover fixed costs and brings in additional revenue.
  • Retailers: Unsold inventory can be converted into trade credits at a cost of £50 for 100 credits. These credits can then be used to purchase other needed goods or services, improving cash flow and reducing inventory.

The double-edged sword of trade credits means that buyers feel they are getting a great deal with built-in discounts, while sellers turn what would be lost revenue into valuable resources. This dynamic not only alleviates some of the pressures caused by inflation and economic hardship but also builds a loyal customer base that is more flexible and willing to spend.

Boosting Sales and Reducing Expenses:
GETS Trade offers numerous benefits designed to enhance your business performance. By participating in our exchange, you can boost sales, increase publicity, and improve cash flow. The platform allows you to buy at better prices, recover money owed, and reduce bank debt. These strategic advantages help you clear out extra inventory, utilize underperforming assets, and protect your business during tough times. Additionally, GETS Trade helps you increase your advertising budget, expand sales channels, and ensure customer retention, further driving your business growth and profitability.

Additional Benefits of GETS Trade:
1. Interest-Free Financing: GETS Trade provides interest-free credit, allowing you to make purchases without the burden of additional financial costs. This is particularly beneficial for businesses looking to manage cash flow more effectively and invest in growth without incurring debt.

2. Improved Cash Flow: By using trade credits to cover operational expenses, you free up cash that can be used for other critical business needs. This improved liquidity can be a game-changer for managing day-to-day operations and unexpected expenses.

3. Expanding Your Market Reach: GETS Trade opens up new sales channels by connecting you with a broad network of businesses. This expanded reach can lead to new customer acquisition and increased sales opportunities.

4. Enhanced Customer Loyalty: Buyers who utilize trade credits perceive significant value, leading to increased loyalty and repeat business. This ongoing relationship can be more profitable over time as loyal customers tend to spend more and refer others.

5. Inventory Management: Clear out slow-moving or excess inventory by trading it for goods and services you need. This not only frees up valuable storage space but also turns otherwise stagnant assets into productive resources.

6. Protecting Your Business: In tough economic times, having an alternative to cash transactions can be crucial. GETS Trade provides a buffer, helping you maintain operations and protect your business from financial instability.

7. Investing in Growth: Use trade credits to invest in marketing, training, and other growth initiatives without affecting your cash reserves. This allows you to pursue business development opportunities that might otherwise be out of reach.

8. Employee Rewards: Trade credits can be used to reward employees, enhancing job satisfaction and retention. Happy employees are more productive and contribute positively to the business’s growth and customer service.

9. Customer Appreciation: Use trade credits to offer special deals and promotions to your customers. This not only drives sales but also strengthens customer relationships and encourages repeat business.

10. Participating in the GETS Local Club: Another major benefit of trade credits is their use in purchasing Premium Points within the GETS Local Club, our B2C loyalty exchange. These Premium Points can be offered to consumers along with premium deals to attract new customers, known as Club Members. Sellers can offer a higher percentage of rewards because Premium Points are purchased at the business's wholesale cost. This means that sellers can provide enticing offers without significantly impacting their profit margins. By leveraging Premium Points, businesses can win and attract new customers, boosting sales and fostering long-term customer loyalty.
