Elite Works and Business Cross-Promotion, explained

Most of Help Barter is about fifteen-minute favours. Two sections of Exchange Place are built for something bigger.

Elite Works: bigger jobs, paid well

Elite members post larger pieces of work: a series of blog posts, testing an app, transcribing interviews, a month of social media. Each listing says how many hours it takes, the deadline and how many people are needed.

Two kinds of work

• Double Coins Work pays 400 Time Coins per job — double an ordinary help — out of the lister's own wallet.
• Paid Elite Works pays money, at the lister's rate, by PayPal or Stripe, directly between the two of you.

For workers: open a listing, read the brief, press I am interested. If you are selected, press Start work, deliver by the deadline and get paid. On paid work, you confirm when the money arrives, and anybody who does not pay is recorded publicly.

For businesses: Elite gives you up to 20 active listings, each open to 100 applicants, with up to 25 people picked per listing. It is a way to hire a team for a project without a recruitment agency.

Business Cross-Promotion: grow by helping each other

Two businesses agree to promote each other's products to their own customers — and help each other make sales.

• Put your business on the board for free once you have a Business Listing.
• Choose mutual (you promote each other) or single side (a promoter shares your business for a commission or fee).
• When both press Start partnership, the terms are frozen.
• Record every promotion and sale; the other side confirms it.

No money passes through Help Barter, and the public track record is what keeps everybody honest.
