IntroNiche is a classifieds platform for niche marketing barter deals.

 In plain english that means that companies targetting specific niches will be able to find other companies targetting identical or other relevant groups. The companies can then contact each other to see if they can make co-operate in their marketing efforts, most likely through barter deals.

IntroNiche's service should specifically appeal to entrepreneurs & marketeers, especially those with all ready a strong internet presence or ambition.

From the self proclaimed king of Chaos, some nice things to do:

• Plan the year ahead (if you haven't done so already in december)
  • Set two major targets for the year
  • Choose four to five major moments in the year that should help you achieve the targets
    (campaigns to be launched, milestones to be reached...)
  • For every milestone, define the preparations you need to do
  • Put all on a nice calendar - break everything down by weeks and months

Craiglist.com - the classic example of a local classifieds website, thinking global. Great community atmosphere on a no frills utilitarian website.

The niche marketing barter deal marketplace is not going to work if companies can't define their niches properly.
Because everything starts with a proper definition of your niche. Once you know that, you will be able to see which companies match your niche.

Here are some of the main niches:

IntroNiche is a Brussels based start-up about to create a classifieds platform for niche marketings barter deals.

I'm thirty something. I used to work for eBay. I live in Brussels, Belgium.

When I managed the collectibles & entertainment categories at eBay, I did a lot of barter marketing.

This means that I looked for companies targetting the same niche targets as I did - collectors's, gamers, music and movie buffs... In a lot of cases, these were existing online portals or offline tradefair organisers.
