The final trade for onematchstick is done! We have reached the goal of office space for a few startup entrepreneurs! Yeehaa! I had a possible trade with Ketha Innovations for the TV and projector for Allon, where they wanted the brick making machine, and after weeks of emails and zooms and negotiating with the suppliers of the machine, we just didn’t find a way to make the barter part of the trade work. It happens that way sometimes, with trading…
We have a deal! And so we are one step closer to finalising the last onematchstick trade for the office space to help some start-up entrepreneurs get their business off the ground! Here’s the overview of this part of the final trade: To summarise this deal A box of gear -> Telana for podcast consulting -> Brian for Sales Training -> Clear Design for a podium -> Allon for office space. And a reminder of the blinds part of this…
Do you know a Sales Expert? Someone who can deliver an exceptional, motivational talk to inspire a sales team? Please introduce me to them, as I need to find someone to trade with to finish my last onematchstick trade, to help start-ups. This will help me get the awesome “Forescolor Eco Podium” from Clear Design, that is part of my last trade. And Clear Design want to get their sales team all ready to ace 2024 next year, in exchange for…
With my final trade that is in progress with Allon, the blinds were installed this week Tuesday! Wynand and his team did a superb job, and were so precise and cleaned up the mess from the drilling. The roller blinds, in black blockout material, look awesome and it was so great to see the old mats that had been used to block some of the windows, being taken away to storage 🙂 I say a BIG THANK YOU to Wynand…
The final goal of the onematchstick story is to help Startup Entrepreneurs overcome the fear of failure, to become more courageous and bold in starting and growing their businesses. And it is to share the onematchstick office space with two Startup Entreprenuers, to help them get their businesses off the ground. It’s time to start this part, as the final trade with Allon for the office space is coming together so nicely! (We got news yesterday of a meeting with…
My updated Wish List for my final trade I’m busy with some negotiations to try make my final trades happen, and in that process the Wishlist for the final trade with Allon has changed. Off that list comes carpets – as that fell through (see the story here.) And onto the list went a new item: A projector! So, to make my final trade happen, I need to find some people who will trade with me for the following items:…
I’ve been chipping away at this Wish List for items to make my final trade happen. I’m in negotiations still with people for a lecturn…. and for blinds… And I made it right to the final negotiation with the carpets for the training room! Yes! Brandon of KBAC Flooring had made me an offer for this Vanguard carpet collection, that was partly cash, partly barter, and Allon agreed in principle. When it came to finalising the deal, and the Raizcorp…
Yesterday I had a client session at Raizcorp (thanks to this update!), and then to avoid loadshedding at my home office, I worked at one of the hotdesks there and bumped into Allon Raiz. He showed me the new office wing he’s been buildling and that led us to look for what I could trade with him as our final trade. And it turns out to be office furniture! ha! So now I start strategising to work backwards from the…
So that meeting was today! And it was with Allon Raiz. And he offered me office space to help startup entrepreneurs in Raizcorp! We are finalising the details and our trade, but it is going to happen and it will be epic! Yayy! Yayy! Let’s go tell everyone! I’m just so excited!!
