We set up Ibx Barter in Landmark Tower, right on the first level at Office No. 18. This building is on The Mall, so it’s easy to find if you're in the area. Our work is a bit different because we deal with bartering, helping businesses swap things instead of just using cash for every single thing. It’s an old way of doing things but it still works well today. The office is usually full of talk about what someone has and what someone else needs. We spend a lot of time on the phone or sitting across from people trying to match things up. It’s not a huge team here, just a few of us working the desks. Being at Landmark Tower is convenient for meetings because everyone knows where The Mall is located. We have folders and spreadsheets to keep track of who owes what and what’s available for trade. Some days it feels like a big puzzle that we're trying to put together. We don't have fancy decorations, just a couple of desks and a coffee machine that gets a lot of use. People come in with all sorts of ideas for trades, some simple and some quite complex. We just listen and see if we can make a connection that makes sense for everyone involved. It keeps things interesting for us. We just try to keep the ledger balanced at the end of every day and make sure the swaps go through smoothly.
