From when my organization first opened an ITEX account, the value was prominent and immediate. We started seeing new customers and increasing our sales, more than before we were members of ITEX. We started saving money on expenses, from the simple to the costly and complex. Last year we generated over $60,000 in sales with ITEX and saved thousands on renovations, advertising, employee benefits/incentives and printing brochures and sales kits.

Before ITEX, I had never stayed on a private island in Belize, when I joined ITEX, I did. My company sold various product lines and with that revenue I took my wife to Belize for our anniversary. We would never had been that extravagant with our vacation, but ITEX made it possible without spending cash – and I increased my sales.

With ITEX being an integral part of my company’s expansion, it became quite clear that that was the case during our forecasting and budgeting. We started scouting markets in the US and stayed at hotels on ITEX in 6 cities over a span of 8 months. We set up lease payments for office space in 3 of those markets and saved my on start up costs like printing and office furniture. Because of the power of the ITEX brand and its strength and population in those markets, we then also already had a group of potential customers who learned about our business and our product line from ITEX, but would also assist in spreading the word of mouth we wanted to their contacts.
