Projects & Causes: Creative Swap Shop

“Money is Dead. Long Live Barter.”
John-Paul Flintoff, The Sunday Times

Fancy getting a flash new website, but don’t have the funds? Need some striking new product photography but can’t face the price tag? Looking for some financial advice without the fees?

In these challenging economic times, forget about money and embrace bartering at the Creative Swap Shop.

As a highlight of Fazeley Digital 09, Creative Republic and Fazeley Studios are inviting you to meet and mingle with fellow creative types and swap your skills or products for services you really need.

The afternoon will kick off with some good old fashioned speed networking, before guests are invited to barter themselves a bargain.

Before closing time, you’ll also have the chance to bid in our Swap Shop Auction. With some top prizes up for grabs, all you’ll need to do is convince our auctioneer that you’re a worthy winner.

Places are strictly limited, and entry is only available to Creative Republic’s charter signatories who have something to swap! To RSVP, fill in the quick form below and let us know what you’ll be bringing to the Swap Shop.
