Acquisition of Local Barter Company by National Firm to Bring Value to Members

Usually when I read that a local Indy firm has been acquired, by another company I am saddened by the information. Not this time.

When Tony Sandlin told me that Barter Indiana Group (BIG) was acquired by International Monetary Systems, I knew it would be a good thing for their members.

Formed just over a year ago, Tony and Dave have grown BIG from 0-200 members, with a lot of hard work. Now as part of IMS, we as members will have access to products and services from almost 10,000 companies nationwide. In addition with the support of the national office, Tony will be able to spend more time expanding their local presence.

Are you a member of a barter group? If not, now is a great time to have the conversation and decide if it is right for you.
