Scott Whitmer Receives IRTA's
Prestigious 2016 David Wallach Outstanding Achievement Award
David
Wallach was one of the barter industry's finest leaders and
visionaries. David's remarkable contributions to the barter
industry spanned 30+ years. He served as IRTA's President from
September 2007 until March of 2011, at which time the IRTA
Global Board of Directors unanimously named him President
Emeritus of IRTA. David served as IRTA's President Emeritus
until his passing on May 6, 2011.
Wallach's passion and love for the
barter industry was unprecedented. He selflessly spent thousands
of hours every year building the barter industry because he
truly believed that the benefits of barter could improve the
standard of living of everyone throughout the world. The phrase
"modern trade and barter industry," was created by David
Wallach.
Recipients of the David Wallach Outstanding Achievement Award
must exhibit the same tireless unselfish commitment to the
barter industry that David Wallach modeled. This year's
recipient Scott Whitmer, President & CEO of Florida Barter,
clearly has met the lofty criteria of the David Wallach Award.
Scott was also elected as Co-Vice Chairman of the IRTA Global
Board this year.
IRTA congratulates Scott on receiving
his much-deserved 2016 David Wallach Outstanding Achievement
Award!

The mission of IRTA is to provide all
industry members with an ethically based global organization,
dedicated to the advancement of Modern Trade/Barter and other
Alternative Capital Systems, through the use of education,
self-regulation, high standards and government relations."

Services Costs Keep
Increasing … Another Reason For Using Trade
Many stories about deflationary prices have
appeared in our nation’s newspapers and TV outlets. All of
which leads a person to believe that everything is dropping
in price. Not so.
Although big-ticket manufactured
items are dropping a bit, what’s really more important for
the entrepreneurial business owner is the cost of services
used on a regular basis. And those prices are increasing,
not dropping.
Luckily, many of these services are
available through your trade exchange, where purchasing them
on trade — at your barter cost — makes excellent sense in
today’s tight economy.
Bottomline: Focus your barter
purchases on the increasingly costly services to get the
most “bang” for your trade dollar!
