Hello,

Let me first say thank you for joining the group.

This group started, in part, because of my membership to a local Freecycle group. I saw that many MANY people were requesting services, and, as a small business owner myself, am often able to provide services in trade for something. Sometimes it's just as simple as trading for advertising - word of mouth, asking a client to hand out business cards or flyers, - or trading for other goods and services.

This list is for people in the Kansas City Metro area; it would be difficult to trade most services across a large geographical area (though not impossible!) While I'm not against having members of other communities join us, I'd rather keep it local for now, and set up other groups later.

This is also a closed list; that means that, before your membership is approved, you must tell me a little about who you are, and what you want to gain from this list. This is mostly to prevent spammers, and to protect privacy as best as I can.

If you have any questions, please let me know, and thanks for joining!

Shelly
